Was playing a match with Morgana vs Zoe... found out black shield doesnt block the sleep effect...

Yeah, if Zoe hits someone with the bubble, they go to sleep... even if they get hit with a spell that blocks spell effects like black shield.

Busted?

Special treatment?

Bug?

A "reason for this?"

Discuss; Im curious why others think this is a thing that happens.

I'm guessing it's because "Asleep" is a new form of cc exclusive to Zoe that hasn't been factored into anything yet, just like Grounding once was

It has already been answered, long story short is Riot feels the drowsy into sleep is a ramping cc like wither slow ramps up. Morgana shield doesn't stop cc from ramping up so it doesn't stop the cc from Zoe unless you have the shield on before being hit. If you shield while drowsy you still fall asleep just like you would still get an increased slow from wither.

You can block it if you apply black shield before the target is hit with the spell itself, but it won't block it if drowsy is already applied. I don't necessarily agree with it, but that's how it works.
