Professor X's SP2 Knockback

As an avid Prox fanatic with my second r5 and first r3 being the big (small) man himself, I really don't like how his Sp2, if thrown just a couple inches early, makes it miss completely with only 1 or 2 of the arrows hitting and the resulting un-knocked down defender just yeets me out of existence. Swedeah and MSD has a video on this I believe, and this bug has screwed me over more times than I'd care to admit. Thoughts?

I’ve used prof X enough to say this is annoying, sp2 is after all highest dps and not getting all your damage sucks.

The more annoying thing is, sometimes even if you connect the first part there’s a chance the last couple of arrows will miss leaving the defender standing. The distance is very weird

Hey do you have any footage of this? Or would you be able to tell us if there's any opponent this happens against consistently?

It happens on the 1:50 mark. Yes, it does happen to all champs when the spacing is like that; yes, I was playing sloppily and got hit and threw Sp2 into the block; and yes, it lagged in the middle of the first Sp2.

The one at 1:50 demonstrates the issue perfectly.

Isn't it because you threw it from a distance. It never happens if i throw it close to the opponent

That could definitely be it, but it could also be still a bug. Maybe the hitbox of the first hit, I just find it quite annoying because some hits like these that are "too early" fix the opponent's spacing either way if the special has follow-up hits.
