I've been playing a lot of braum lately and I came across something that pissed me off. Apparently, Yasuo's windwall can and will stop Braum's ult, althought it its not thrown. I am writing this post with the hope that someday, it 'll get to Riot ears and they will admit that this is a stupid mistake and will fix it. Anyone thinks the same?
Deep Terror Nami2 votesIt's intended. While you might normally think of Nidalee's Javelin or a ranged basic attack as projectiles, mostly anything that originates at one point and moves to another is. Braum's Ult starts at him and moves in a straight line.
For comparison, Lux's Ult deals damage instantly along its entire length so is something that Windwall won't block.

Deep Terror Nami3 votesI said "mostly". There are exceptions.

But the wall's above ground! XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
MisterHealYoGirl1 votesA projectile is anything that moves and isn't a unit; it's that simple. Since Braum ult flies along the ground, Yasuo's wall counts it. The only ones that pass through it are Nautilus' Depth Charge and Xerath's Rite of the Arcane, which are visually projectiles but aren't coded in that way. Anything else (autoattacks, Maphite Qs, even an enemy Yasuo's Wind Wall) will be destroyed.

But doesn't Braum's Ult smash the ground? It should go under it!

I don't think smashing the ground does that...
Asayake 5150glow1 votesI don't think smashing the ground does that...
Aw...
MisterHealYoGirl1 votesIn logical terms, yes. In game terms, no. Then again, we're talking about a breeze that blocks cruise missiles, so perhaps logic isn't the first concern.
Dominick Destine1 votesOn the plus side; This means you can block an enemy Braum's ult with your shield.
