Controlling Sion's ult with Jedi pod racing skills...

Unless you have a clear path and are decent at hand eye coordination it takes some getting used to. However, I was spectating a game yesterday in which a "Tempnamesr(digits)" summoner seemed to have "Jedi like" pod racing skills. On two separate occasions I saw him navigate through the jungle while ulted and make it out easy peezy. Then, as if that wasn't enough, Corky was giving chase in the bottom lane, Sion ulted away, and once he thought he was a safe distance away, stopped, turned a 180 and reengaged Corky.

My first thought was, "Kick ass!" I love the new Sion regardless of what some people say about him, but now? Being able to totally control him during his ult? Too good to be true. So I played a bot game, got to 6, fired up the ult, and...no dice. Hard to control and no Jedi pod racing skills. My only thought after that was, "Great. Sion's been hacked." Am I over thinking this? Maybe a temp bug? Thoughts?

I played against him yesterday. I made a post about it, too. Being able to make 180 degree turns with Sion's ult should not be possible. He's cheating.

There's actually a post showing this exact thing your talking about op.

Im pretty sure its a very unintentional bug/exploit that people are figuring out. I suggest reporting these people to Support for suspected cheating.

In TF2, activating a demo charge was similar to Sion's ult, where you could only turn a little bit once it got going. So of course people made scripts for it. Since you could move a little while it's active, the script tricks your computer into thinking that you're scrolling with your mouse REALLY fast, allowing you to control your movement as if it were unrestricted.

It might be something similar here.

I figure the easiest way to gank with Sion's ult is to intentionally aim it off, so that they assume you're going to miss them and don't even try to dodge you....

And then flash on top of them for the hit.

You can still use summoners while ulting, right?

I saw that same player earlier today do it as well. Might be an exploit. Might be hacking.
