Kai'sa Ult text is misleading, or there are incorrect game interactions regarding her ult and cc.

So Kai'sa's ult says that you will "warp" to a target location of someone that has been marked with plasma. This seems cool, but to my knowledge we have never had any teleports or dashes refereed to as a "warp" which could cause some confusion. It did for me, as I just got out of a game where my team engaged as veigar put up his cage between our backline (me playing kaisa) and the rest of our team. So I hit her ult to try and join the fight and pick off some low health members, however, during the "warp" I was stopped in the middle of veigars cage.. not even on the side of it? im not sure if this is how the interaction should work, considering that if this IS intended the text should say "Dash towards target location" instead of "Warp" because warp sounds much more like a teleport or flash type of mechanic that could go through things. ie.) In real life you can not dash through a wall, but if we could have the ability to warp things, we could warp through a wall.

LoL wikia and the champion reveal article both state it as dash. Official Riot page has not been updated yet and don't include her at all. IF her ult text really mentions a "warp", then I'm with you that this should be changed thou.

Can confirm, in German it even says "teleports".

ATM you have to guess yourself by using Ult that its actually a Dash, with al their negative Aspects, aka. getting stopped by Poppy W, Veigar E, etc.

Should honestly be hotfixed in all Languages that Kai´Sa´s R is a Dash

Warping to a location means to travel really fast in a specified direction. Maybe as a trekie fan i understand this wording better but it doesn't meant to "flash" or "teleport" to a location. Even if Kai'Sa's login screen, her ult is clearly shown that it dashes her to a targeted location but her outline is clearly shown on your marked location moments before you arrive to it. And "warping" is the correct term as her in-game animations and SFX actually show that.

Vandiril (that guy who always tests out League's bugs and "OP" builds) on YT had already a full video of Kai'Sa's ult interactions with many champions so i encourage you to check that out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU48NKXalsc

Warping does not mean to teleport. It means to move very quickly. Thats why its called warp speed.

What if they make her ult unstoppable instead?

i still thing that while dashing she should be cc immune. if a champions ult is just a single dash running into something on your way to target feel real bad.
