Same reason Kalista gets global voice-over and Karthus doesnt.

Because she is CertainlyT's baby that also happens to be similar to Riot's ex-favorite girl, Nidalee.

Meanwhile, Riven being able to cancel her AA animation.

RozzetaSep 27, 20155 votes

Xypherous said Riven was inspired in fighting games, so the AA cancel is intentional.

I'm pretty sure it was a bug that Riot decided to keep.

Because its not fair to Kalista to get hit by a cc that she couldn't dodge with her passive lol

They could try to fix it, but why risk harming the fragile stability of the pro scene meta right before Worlds? Gotta keep those player-focused priorities straight right?

olaf is supposed to be immune to cc and pay off on a large amount , now imagine that vayne is immune to cc because of a bug what would you think?

Only suppression. Stuns still stop her.

KaeblenSep 27, 20151 votes

Suppression can be negated by other things too... like Garen's Q... Is it coded as a movement penalty? Garen can't break stuns with that, so why suppression?

Crowd Control Movement Attacking Abilities Interrupt Forbidden Spells Reduction Suppression Blocked Blocked Blocked Yes All No

Here is a 'chart' from the league of legends wiki at http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Crowd_control it completely negates both movement, attacking, abilities, and spells. It's not limited to movement only, also Garens q only takes out slows. [For some reason my spacing doesn't work, so just take it one word at a time]

KaeblenSep 27, 20151 votes

In that case, I found a HUGE bug. The table you referenced shows how I had previously thought things worked, but the last time I played vs Garen he would break Malzahar's Ult just by activating his Q (which he should not have been able to use at all, since he was suppressed).

kusagari77Sep 27, 20151 votes

Well then... that's a problem.

Why would Riot EVER nerf their main babe right now? They just love milking CertainlyCancer's champions. Why would they ever fix this horribly game breaking bug? Just remove her weakness so that's she's a pro-scene god and leave Vayne hyper-fucking the soloq games. I don't hate Kalista simply for this reason, and yes I know it's not her only weakness and that isn't like the most gamebreaking thing to have ever existed but...

I fucking hate Kalista. Everything about her. Her lore. Her appearance. Her kit. Her voice. Her existence. I just fucking hate Kalista.

Ariel the CruelSep 27, 20156 votes

It's a known bug.

If Kalista is in her AA animation when the CC takes affect, she can continue to AA and jump with her passive. If she stops AA'ing during the CC duration, she becomes properly CC'ed. This applies to all forms of hard CC; suppression, Stun, root, Squirrel, etc.

(Note: far as I'm aware, nobody has been able to replicate this with 100% consistency. So exact circumstances are still unknown.)

idk about that. i had literally the same response in my head when i read the comment he replied to. i thought calling it squirrel was cute

they should disable her until it's fixed, i would love to go and play norms with out worrying about the enemy having a kalista on their team

Agreed, they should also take their time working on the fix. 5 patches would be acceptable but I wouldn't complain if they took longer.

Fixed.

ReQnosisSep 27, 20152 votes

This would be another good example of why we need "Sandbox" mode. *Can properly test champions, summoners, ect for bugs or exploits.

If she already started the animation for an auto, it will finish unless she is killed. It's the same concept as starting any skillshot ability with a small start up animation. It artificially reduces the duration of the cc by finishing the execution of the last thing.

that happened to me once when i was fighting an aatrox. he was autoattacking while his passive was going (so he was untargetable). it made me sad bc i died when it should have been him.

UberAffeSep 26, 20154 votes

ok, that is a bug. I thought you meant just the first auto

VerxintSep 28, 20151 votes

I saw a Kalista attacking during a Bard ult shortly after she game out. It was weird.

LankPantsSep 27, 20151 votes

Other champs can be in the middle of dashes and animations, with very few exceptions a suppress will stop them.

UberAffeSep 27, 20151 votes

animation is different than channel. if you suppress during the channel portion of an ability it will still go off. Cait's q is a common one. you will often see it go off while she is stunned.

You have this backwards. CC during a channel will put the ability on cd like it had gone off, but it won't actually go off. Think fid ult. cc during an animation/cast time will still let it go off as the channel was technically completed, it just had a big wind up like cait q, lux ult, ez ult, etc...

IiIianaSep 26, 20154 votes

Somewhat related, I noticed that when I was playing Lulu against a Kalista, my polymorph wouldn't stop her hopping. I don't remember if she kept dealing damage to me while polymorphed, but her little white seal jumped for the entire length of my W. Shouldn't happen, right?

Crystal RushSep 27, 20152 votes

Shouldn't happen, but the fact that she can't cancel her autos screws things up a bit....

JingerbeardmanSep 28, 20151 votes

pretty much that in a nut shell.

Monsta MooSep 27, 20152 votes

Her autos cant be canceled once they are going, everyone knows this lol.

JingerbeardmanSep 28, 20152 votes

but she should not keep attacking through the suppression, the first attack after the suppression strats is understandable but currently she can simply continue attacking in certain situations
