I do have a workaround until or even if it will be fixed ever.
Simply use a light attack after you dash back
This only works if you are attacking blocking enemies and only if you dash back after the fourth hit.
If you don't attack blocking enemies, backdraft intercepts are still working as before.
Doesn't work for me in any way. Hit into 2 3 or 4 blocks and dash back and try to intercept I get wrecked. Land a 3 4 or 5 hit combo and dash back and try to attack with medium or light attack and I get wrecked.
I have to bait heavies or dash back and parry. I can't parry up close consistantly because the framerates are all screwed up too. I can't use sp3's either or I get smacked. Can only use them to finish a fight.
I have stopped using the block-intercept technique ... this is the new reality ... easier to accept it, than banging head against a wall
Yes I agree i had to change my gameplay entirely because of this “bug”. However, not being able to attack block/dashback/intercept has diminished tremendously the effectiveness of some champs e.g magik and og vision, that rely a lot on this technique in order to used them effectively in competitive AW.
We need the game team to come forward and confirm if this is an intentional change on the AI or if its a bug. If its a bug, when it will be fixed. If its not going to be fixed, what compensation will be issued?
Magik has gone from god tier AW attacker to a bench warmer in my roster. This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed as it creates a dangerous precedent.
It's been a while since I used the forums, because I was busy with my last chap in act 5 and I had to quit because the Ultron didn't let medusa do her work..that is the backdraft intercept still hasn't been fixed i mean this costed me around 500 units will I get compensated for this kabam? Or the kabam mods are going to ignore this and this case will never be answered?
the hot fix didn't fix anything the game crashes randomly the backdraft intercept is missed up and the Ai can follow you right after you ending your combo with no recovery time in between and hit you i think all of this comes from one side ( they buffed the AI speed silently) Sentinel can still recover fast after his sp1 it's a 50% chance now
This was not fixed with the last patch. Can we get some reassurance that this is still being looked into? The AI changes over the last two months have made playing a less than enjoyable experience. Been playing 3.5 years and gameplay is easily as bad as it's been since 12.0.
I'm really angry that Kabam is not reacting or replying to all these bugs. This Game is broke and we are getting ripped off by Kabam.
I've spend so much extra Units just because of the problem we hab the last two months. I am so sick of it that I left my alliance because I need a break of this shi.... It's just no fun anymore.
@Kabam Miike@Kabam Lyra i think i echo the feelings of a lot of players here when i say i am thoroughly dissapointed and frustrated by the lack of communication with this issue. we’re still experiencing issues with backdraft intercepting, with no update or acknowledgement that its being resolved or even still being looked into. the announcement of new content (aq, new aw stuff to come) is awesome, but its incredibly discouraging to us when we feel left in the dark here.
There was a time when mods would regularly update the community, at least once a fortnight, on what was being done regarding bugs. Seems like that practice has stopped. That is only for the worse of the game and the community.
Hey there everyone, in order for us to look into this further, we'll need some information from everyone who says they're experiencing this. Could those who are please answer the following question about what you saw:
-What Champion were you using? If multiple, which ones specifically? -What Champion were you fighting? If multiple, which ones specifically? -What game mode were you in? Please include map or difficulty level where needed. -What Device were you on? -What version of your OS were you using?

Thanks for responding. To be honest, it happens everywhere with just about every champ. Your best chance of being able to accomplish a dash back intercept is when using a longer dash back champ like Darkhawk. I notice it much more consistently failing when using a shorter dash back champ like Dr Voodoo. The issue also seems to be worse when you have the enemy against the wall. just try using DV in Epic difficulty. hit into block and try to dash back intercept. id say at least 60% of the time the enemy will be on top of you before your dashback animations are finished. AI recovery time seems much faster than it was 2 months ago.

Thanks for responding.
I encourage everyone to make as comprehensive a list as possible. My personal experience is that this is affecting just about every single champ barring a few exceptions. I will be making a detailed post and continuously updating the match ups as I test them out.
This is a good opportunity for us to finally get the game team to recognise this bug and solve it.

Non-exhaustively but what I have found:

Will continue to add as I test out more interactions. But what most others above are saying is correct. It seems to be virtually exhaustive of every single champ, in every match up, in every game mode. It used to be universally possible to do backdraft in this manner, now it is universally impossible.

Could we please get an official answer on this? Players deserve to know. Has this issue been officially declared an intended change to the AI and game mechanics? Is kabam going to invest time solving this? It has yet to be added to the known bugs, so I’m assuming its being considered as intended, but the community deserve to know the official stance from kabam on this. Please give us an answer so we can move forward and close this once and for all.

This has been broken since the beginning of April.
We used to be able to ML into a blocking opponent, dash back for a window to intercept.
This does not work with any champion, vs any opponent, in every game mode.
