Bug: Heavy Attack Gave Defender 1 Bar of Power That Got Launched During Same Heavy Attack?

GabeZRod

I was using Tigra against Galan on Node 48 in Tier 3 AW. Galan launched a Special Attack 1 that I then punished with a heavy attack. The first hit of Tigra’s heavy attack hit Galan, giving him 1 full bar of power, and you can see my second heavy attack hit not make contact because Galan proceeded to launch a Special Attack 1 immediately after my first hit of my heavy attack. This seems like a latency issue in the game I’m hoping can be addressed. Happy to post a video of it as well but these three screenshots show (1) me going in for a heavy attack, (2) my first hit of a heavy attack making contact and giving him a full bar of power, and (3) my second hit not making contact but him using a special attack 1.

There's a bug going around where heavy attacks do not make the defender unable to move. There was another thread in which thing launched a special in the middle of a heavy attack

Recently encountered this bug with defender breaking stun while performing heavy. Nearly impossible to punish with heavy while defender have 1 bar of power.

I just hope this doesn’t devolve into champ to champ interactions discussion because I’m seeing this with special attacks too. First hit connects then boom the block goes up anyways.

There’s also the fun AI throws specials with 2.9 bars of power bug.

Yeah I've been getting this a lot. Once the initial hit of your heavy connects they should not be able to interrupt it with specials but I've had that happen several times the past week. Fun and interactive.

I’m seeing now that this bug is on the Trello board tracker, so hope this is at least a good example of when it has happened 🙂
