I am playing variant 1, I am using gamit on power reserve node. When I use special immediately after combo, AI blocks some time. See below video.

If you observe closely, The block is triggering after sp1 animation started. This happens with all champions where sp1 has multiple hits and first hits has less reachability
We've seen variations on this bug a few times in the past though I'm not sure Kabam has ever confirmed it.
The best I can tell is that when a stun expires, it immediately resets/negates any recovery time from hits. The expiration of the stun instantly sets the defender back to neutral, giving them they opportunity to execute a move when they should still be recoiling from the hit they just took.
Previously, this was widespread with Nightcrawler. You could stun him and hit him with a multi-hit special. When the stun wore off, he was able to evade later hits in the special even though the early confirmed hits should have locked him into place.
This could be what's happening here as the stun wears off between the last hit of the regular combo and the first hit of the special. However, this one is hard to prove from the player's side.
A stun expiring shouldn't give a defender a chance to execute an action (block, attack, throw a special) if they should be locked into position because of a landed hit. This was seen a lot about a year ago because there was a pesky Nightcrawler fight in an EQ that was just before the boss node, meaning you had to fight him several times. He had a habit of evading multi-hit specials even after taking a hit. It made the bug pretty glaring.
