Autoblocked when stunned

I fought against nova on the cav difficulty and 3 times when I attacked him while stunned he blocked it. I don't see anywhere in his abilities that he can block even when stunned. Can he purify the stun to autoblock somehow? Not sure if its a bug or something I don't know

That happens with all autoblock champions right?

It's happened to me numerous times against Guardian, Medusa and Nova.
Also, never that I recall against Darkhawk which is weird..

Nova can if he is above 50 charges. Medusa can always do it and I dont know about Guardian

I don't think they are suppose to block while stunned tho. Actually the way I use to always fight Medusa was stun her and hit her. People always use to put her on a stun immune node in war because of that.

I do remember in arena I fought Medusa and she autoblocked me while stunned. I just didn't care since I didn't die. Nova was cost me revives just now.

I think I remember a thread a few years ago about medusa and that she was supposed to autoblock while stunned.

This shouldn't happen. Its like saying evade champions would evade while stunned. When I fight Medusa, modok, imiw, etc I stun them and do a 3 hit combo. They never autoblocked before.

Whether a champ can auto-block while stunned *may* depend on if the logic for that champ is that they have to “actively” do something in order for the auto-block, or if it is more like something passively that can happen for the champ.

MODOK can NOT auto-block during the 2-3 hits you can get in while he's Parry-Stunned, but Medusa always runs the risk of 2nd+ hits triggering it during Living Strands even while Parry-Stunned.

(not sure how each of their auto-blocks are interpreted as far as if the logic is active/conscious or passive ability)

Medusa even has it in her sig descrition, she purifies stun debuffs when autoblocking. Maybe you just always got really lucky with medusa

You're absolutely right I parry heavy with Medusa. But not with modok. I do parry heavy against imiw as well. But she has it in her abilities so it makes sense. I don't see that with nova.
