CC during Zoe ult (unpopular opinion)

Just want to put it out there i hardly ever post on the boards so hey guys, I recently played a game with Shen and I managed to taunt Zoe just as she used her ult which i was pretty proud of but i didn't think she could still go through with it once under heavy CC. I don't know maybe its an unpopular opinion but if you manage to catch a Zoe the split second she uses ult and cc her i would've thought she wouldn't still be able to get away safely, just seems a little dumb.

I mean her ult needs to have some safety and reliability for scouting and picks because otherwise it’s just a q or e extender that broadcast your next position.

She will always go back to where she started, no matter what, she can even flash to get a little extra distance but she'll go back to the start. That doesn't mean using cc is useless when she ults, it will make her not able to use other abilities during the ult.

In your clip she did get taunted, just on the other side of the wall, she also got chunked by a nidalee spear because of how predictable the return is. Because of the taunt she wasn't able to follow up on the sleep either.

yeah thats true, just really frustrating to play against in that situation

If Zoe could get CC'd out of her ult people would outright just not use it in most situations because of how unsafe it already is with your return location being very telegraphed

Working as intended, but it is really counterintuitive. You'd assume (since it's true for other blinks) that a Grounded debuff, Snare, Taunt, or Stun would prevent her from blinking back.
