Blitz hook, lag or faulty hitbox?

Play it on 0.25. I mean, is that lag, faulty hitbox or what? No matter how I look at it, I don't think there was any way it could've hit me. Just curious what people think about this. If you stop the video at the right moment, you can see that it's clearly not even at my feet, and yet.

It lands if even the edge of its hitbox hits the edge of your hitbox. Go back and play it on 0.25 speed again. The glove doesn't exactly show the true hitbox, but you can see by the effect on the ground that it does overlap with you.

Hope that clears it up. Every projectile in the game works edge to edge.

So, none of the above. But yeah, perhaps the actual hitbox should be shown by the glove, not its ground trail.

Wasn't there a study video on this a while ago somewhere in here that explains how skillshots like that tend to have a "Skill-shot AoE Bloom" At the end? And that its stated the best counter is to literally walk parallel of the skillshot, But Towards him because it only blooms at the end point, and not the actual linear skillshot?

Or you know Just dashing out of distance before it hits there
