Karnacs L2

Is anyone having trouble landing Karnacs L2. Haven't been able to land it recently.

Opponent counters with parry everytime

Do MLLL and then the special

Karnaks L2 has a slow starting animation. Several other champs have a slow animation as well, such as Ultron's L2. You just have to either parry then spec or do like BZ said and do a MLLL combo then use the special.

I've always been able to L2 until recently. Something has changed. MLLL is what i always do. I never do full combos with Special Attacks

It's most certainly not a recent change. It's been this way since last year when they were messing with the AI. The more reactive the AI gets the more likely they're going to block the spec. If you're having issues with MLLL, it's likely a combination of your ping to the servers and your own reaction time between hitting the spec button and the final light hit.

It's just the slow animation that certain champs have, karnak being one of many to have one. They've fixed a few specs to activate sooner, but not all of them have been fixed and is likely at the very bottom of a long list of stuff that needs to be done.
