Seriously I just want to go on the pbe and play with the malphite changes but I can’t because of this bug. Why has riot not immediately disabled wukong?

Should be fixed today. I pulled the Wukong update off the PBE build late last week but missed some stuff so there were some buggy interactions between old and new data in yesterday's build.

For anyone wondering we are going ahead with the update, doesn't need further PBE testing at present though. Timeframe is dependent on when artists are available in particular which isn't clear yet.

@Meddler before going through with the current changes I would like you to consider the following so you can balance him after the change I suggest.

His whole Assasin QOL got deleted, and they also nerfed a good amount of his base and scaling damage; In order to make him into a bruiser. He has some extra trickiness, but its all lacking unless you let the W clone dash to E target with Wu. The change im suggesting will make him more of a trickster and allow wukong to be more consistent. It is so easy for someone to avoid PBE Wukongs clone(and its a decent percent of his damage), His clone needs to be allowed to be dragged a couple of times during fights and skirmishes.

I feel like with the bad numbers and him lacking this simple QOL buff you guys will have a harder time balancing him. Might aswell let him keep bad numbers and with a good consistency QOL[that will make him feel whole] than to give him good numbers which will allow him to 100-0 more often[and just be a even lamer version of current live wukong]

You gonna elaborate on this bug? Maybe give a time it popped up?

If it happened yesterday no shit they haven't fixed it yet.

I’m not talking about fixing it. It’s a game breaking bug so they should have just disabled wukong until it is fixed.

On the PBE there is a bug in Wukong’s Q that is allowing him to one-shot enemies and towers with no items.

And riot still hasn’t disabled wukong even though he is breaking the game.

Huh. And how is that happening? Like just someone misplaced a decimal or...?

I honestly don’t know, though it is a bit hilarious watching a champion with a stick destroying armored turrets so effortlessly.

That's not a bug. That is game mechanics.

It's still late morning here in the US. Rioters sleep, you know. I agree, they should have disabled Wukong while they get a fix in the works, but they already had a PBE update planned for today, so why patch twice?

It's the PBE... game breaking bugs is the point of the environment. Calm down, no reason to get so upset over a BETA environment. That's the reason it exists. It's not live and therefore not as urgent. Too much overreacting over this.

Otherwise, the changes seemed good and his new kit should allow for more skill expression without being played for the sake of deleting someone when barely ahead. That volatility is part of the reason they made those changes.
