Shens dodge zone doesn't reset garens q anymore?

Its Fr0st·Oct 9, 2019·4 votes·5,470 views

Shen used to be my normal pick into Garen. He runs at me with q, I block it with dodge zone, trade and back off. With todays patch, I've seen 0 changes about anything to this in his q. The Patch note is " Q - Decisive Strike (NEWCAST TIME) ~~ Now scales with Garen's attack speed, behaving more similarly to a basic attack (BUGFIX)Fixed a bug where when Garen is slowed, his Q's lockout time dramatically increased"

Now, I block the aa with my dodge zone, it comes up blocked. He proceeds to just finish with his q, silencing him right after.

Is this now intended?

It happening with Jax’s e as well. Really annoying to deal with actually.

Sorry you mean garens Q is being blocked by counter strike, but it also doesn't use up garens q?

Yup. I’m banning him every game now until the bug is fixed simply because it makes him incredibly difficult to lane against now.

Just let Garen be broken for one patch since all these other champions are

The garen can simply use their brain for once and cancel their auto, so they can keep the Q for when enemy's dodge is gone.

Garen IS broken atm but he is also beginner level champ. Yoric was gutted for way less

Yeah that’s what I thought was happening, he was cancelling the aa when he seen me pop my zone, but he doesn’t since it comes up saying blocked

uploaded a short video to try and show what i mean. It says blocked, so he does hit me with the AA.

Yeah and you can see on garen's abilities that his Q is not expended when he uses it.

Definitely a bug
