Kalista Auto-Attacking through hard CC

This isn't from my game, I don't regularly record my matches so I didn't have video of it, but it was the same scenario. Twice in the game I saw as Kalista was under hard CC, once from Malzahar ultimate and another from a Condemn Stun, she would continue auto attacking, dealing damage and proccing lifesteal. This bug is quite game changing as it is essentially changing the form of CC from stun/suppression to something like a root, in one of these situations the continued auto attacks kept her alive and actually killed the malzahar while he was ulting her. Can riot please look into this, think it's due to the coding on her passive with the "must complete auto attacks" and is really annoying to see this occurring and not have her disabled.

This is worse than the darius stun bug.

Kalista needs to be deleted for far more reasons than this bug.

Hopefully riot sees this and fixes it pronto, because you're not the first to get video of it. She can do it through a Lulu crittermorph, too.

I don't really understand your problem.

They are already compensating AP Xin for DFG removal. And Kalista needs buffs, she doesn't abuse this game hard enough!

It happens in Guardian Angel too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwNX44umrh0

Probably a bug that is related to her inability to cancel autoattacks, but that is just my opinion.

That could actually be the reason. I wouldn't put it past Rito to not edit their auto-attack coding to fit a new mechanic like this.

This happened to my team a while ago except kalista was attacking them for the whole time she was reviving. This is by far the most game breaking bug that I have seen lol

This is a very advertised bug, along with Darius's passive not ticking as often as it should. Both of these frequently come up on the forums, and Riot has yet to address either-- either with a fix, or even confirming that it exists.

I've seen this a couple times in game. Every time I die a little inside.

Spread the word, and together we can stop this.

Yeah. Riot should definitely have seen this coming.

"Guys, let's make this champ who can hop around by autoing." "But wouldn't she just be able to abuse that by auto hop then cancel?" "Well, let's make it so she CAN'T cancel her autos!" "But sir, we use the auto cancel coding to make sure champs can't auto when they are CC'd or mid GA!" "Eh, I'm sure no one will notice."

I had a Kalista hop out of my ultimate as Galio...

I've had twitch do that to me as warwick and i've had my ult not get canceled by an enemy malzahar's Q as malzahar

That suppression doesn't stop her from flying to your base and back to her own base in 2 seconds.

(y) Good job on the bug find

Garen Q procs even if he's CC'ed why can't Kalista attack while being CC'ed?

Q procs even if he's CC'ed why can't attack while being CC'ed?

Because his Q removes disables upon activation.

MannysmokerJul 4, 20151 votes

Not really, Garen 's only removes slow type abilities...it won't remove snares, binds, roots, etc..

I upvoted you, but you should also post this in the bug forum.

Kalista coded as a basic attack confirmed

I've was watching TSM Santorin's stream the other day, and I watched a Kalista AA through a Veigar stun like 2-3 times

Definitely needs a fix

All kinds of spells go through stuns because they can't be canceled. If this was dota it wouldn't be a problem because you can stop casting easily. Kalista's auto attacks also cannot be canceled so they're just as broken as every mage in the game. How do you not realize this?

DaxterrJul 5, 20151 votes

You are missing the point. Kalista can attack while she is suppressed/ dead. That is a tad different.

When you polymorph as lulu and it isn't enough to stop her

To everyone saying it's because she can't cancel her autoattacks: no. The problem is all the autoattacks she shouldn't have been able to START while under hard CC, not the first one she got to finish when the CC landed.
