There's a big problem with Kayn's shadow assassin E

When you walk through terrain, you're supposed to get 7 seconds of active, yet after walking out of terrain, it goes iaway in about 1.5~-2 seconds. Please fix this bug asap. it's quite annoying when fleeing as shadow assassin because, for whatever its worth, shadow assassin is weak asf and the enemy team just chases me down. EDIT

Please update the tooltip to include that if it's intentional.

I don't own him, but I feel like when I was reading his abilities on the wiki it explicitly said that it did that?

Why isn't that in the tooltip then?

" Active: Kayn gains 40% bonus movement speed, is ghosted and can ignore terrain collision for 1.5 seconds. Immobilizing effects will interrupt Shadow Step.

Kayn heals himself upon moving through terrain for the first time and, if he's not in combat with enemy champions, Shadow Step's duration is increased to 5 seconds.

Heal: 100 / 115 / 130 / 145 / 160 (+ 40% bonus AD)

Entering combat with a champion after the effect is enhanced reduces the remaining duration to 1.5 seconds. The effect also cannot remain active out of terrain for longer than 1.5 seconds.

Shadow Assassin: Casting Shadow Step removes slows, additionally if Kayn enters terrain at least once, Shadow Step will be improved for the remainder of its duration to grant 70% bonus movement speed and make Kayn immune to slows.

Rhaast: Shadow Step is unchanged."

Emphasis mine. (From wiki.)

It's an awful lot for a tooltip, and after people grumbled about the last few champs having small novels in their tool tips I suppose they've opted to cut back.

I in general like long detail tooltips, but I feel like theres probably more people out there who see a big tool tip and immediately go tldr and don't even bother.

It gets put on a reduced duration (1.5 seconds IIRC) if you're in combat with a champion.

Although I have noticed that sometimes the ability sometimes cancels itself after walking through a couple of walls (while out of combat) even though the buff bar shows it still hasn't gone through its full duration.

what i'm saying is, if you pick shadow assassin, E says when walking through a wall you get 7 seconds added on. you step out and 1.5~ seconds later it end, which it should not
