Does the bug still exist that corvus glaive does less damage when the opponent is armour broken?

Basic attacks do the same damage
Critical hits don't matter.
May 12, still nothing. The linked post even got mentioned in one of RichTheMan youtube video.
They do actually. With other characters at least. And in the previous thread (which was deleted) someone said that it doesnt affect corvus' first light and I didn't bother to question that
Take a look at these-
For Cull more Armor Break increases his damage as the physical resistance remains same( 2 Heat Charges)
My assumptions is that when opponent's armor is negative, true damage stops working so hits will not ignore physical resistance which causes the damage to reduce.
Also if the 4 armor breaks were enough to increase the damage on Culls non-crits they should have increased it on his crits as well
Damage increase with more armor break but reduces when heat charges increase as expected. Physical resistance will reduce physical damage.
You can see two light attack crits where the one that happens while hulk is armor broken has reduced damage compared to one with out the armor break.
You can compare two videos taken years apart also.
Ok this affects all the champs, but champs without True Damage are only affected on thier critical hits. This is because Critical Hits work like True Damage( which I forgot). That's why it affects CG on non critical hits as well because all his hits do True Damage.
Do check following two Questions:
Q: What is Critical Hit?
Q: How does Armor Work?

This bug doesn't affect True Strike. KM does same damage with True Strike against positive and negative armor.
I think my assumption is correct. True Damage stops working when opponent has negative armor but True Strike works. That's why with True Strike hits do same damage on same type of hits unless the damage is increased or decreased from other sources.
Critical Hits ignore some part only (True Damage ignores full). That's why this happens on Critical Hits. Critical Hits partially act like true damage.
When using champs like CG players can take advantage of negative armor and zero physical resistance because True Damage stops working. But this causes an unexpected interaction with resistance where it's no longer being ignored which causes the damage to reduce.
But the same doesn't happen with True Strike as it also ignores Auto Block and Evade so it doesn't stop working. True Strike always deals damage as if armor and resistance both are zero.
