The game experienced a brief connectivity issue this morning. The team promptly fixed the issue and things are back to normal, thank you to everyone who passed along reports!
Despair Mastery Bugged? (Not reversing regen)

Description for despair mastery: Debuffs applied to enemies reduce their healing and Regeneration effects by X% each.
With Despair 3/3 each debuff reduces healing by 15%.
At 6 debuffs, you get 15 x 6% = 90% healing reduction. 7 debuffs, 105% and 8 debuffs, 120%.
As seen in this video, despair is not reversing the regen after 7 stacks of debuffs.

There's no reason why despair should not be able to reverse regen when there are champions with petrify abilities that are capable of reversing regen. Please look into fixing this.

Don't need a fix. It's not broken.
They would need to take in consideration champions that can do an infinite amount perma debuffs in the fight, which would may lead to a cap (aka, indirect nerf)
That is simply your assertion that it is not supposed to work that way. On paper the description is pretty much the same as the description for petrify debuffs, which do reverse regen
As another example, with two petrify rebuffs Void reduces healing by 100%. With points in despair you can have between 110-130% healing reduction, resulting in some regen reversal. In effect when you have the despair mastery, each debuff should work as a small 5% to 15% "petrify" (without the power gain reduction) but it's currently not behaving this way.
Very few champs can stack an infinite amount of debuffs in the way you describe. The only one I can think of is KG. Even for havok those debuffs drop off after 10 stacks.
Despair does not work as a petrify. They are two different mechanics
Do you have a link to an official moderator response? Personally I don't think allowing despair to reverse regen unbalances the game, it opens up more champions to be viable for countering regen instead of relying on the same few champs.
