Lucian Dash is Broken

It's pretty stupid. Just a played game as Leo support, but my stuns were useless. When I got in a good position to stun him, all he'd have to do is dash away. The part that irritates me about this is... I'D GET MY STUN ON HIM. When I'd use my Zenith blade and he would dash, he would get his momentary root, but when I dashed to him as per my skill, I would just go to where he WAS as opposed to where he IS. If I used my Q stun, he'd just dash away and again, he'd be stunned, but at too a far a distance to do anything. Usually it led to him dashing under his turret while still being stunned, so its pretty unfair... because what's the point of a stun if he can still move to the safety of his turret?

I have not noticed this happen with any other dash/gap closer effects. For example,if I use my stuns on a Cait that uses her E, then she is going to get locked down in the spot where she was when my stun hit. Same thing happens for Graves, any champ riding a Thresh lantern, etc. They all get locked down at the spot the disable hits them at. If I Zenith blade somebody with a jump like Kata, I'll still go to the location they are jumping too... as opposed to the location where they jumped from. It's pretty unfair, and while we went on to win that game, the laning phase was ruined because I had to keep putting myself at risk without getting a reward for landing my stuns because he was able to just dash away. I know my stuns have a lower CD than his dash, but he'd just play super safe until it came off CD knowing he could just blow through my disables like they werent even happening.

Lucian dash is on a long cd, and the mana cost isn't that low to begin with when paired with other abilities. His dash is balanced. It's his ridiculous passive with no cd that he can spam away that's imbalanced, and makes him a lane bully.

It's instantaneous for a reason. If it was slow, then the dash would be useless because it has no other utility tacked onto it like caitlyn and graves.

So that means his dash should effectively negate stuns? I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying here. The fact that he can dash isn't the problem. It's the fact that if a disable is applied to him, he can still dash even though he is disabled. A stun, root, taunt etc. should stop that.

No. Lucian's dash only removes "slowing effect", not stuns. He can remove movement speed slows and attack speed debuffs. Your stun ended, then he dashed.

No, it did not. He was stuned, but just in the place that he dashed to. Not the place where the stun applied. He had the stun indicator over him and everything. I'm not supid.

Then it is a bug. I recommend you stop downvoting everything and send a ticket in.
