nightcrawler doing what?

Starting last master quest stage. fighting NC. how is he able to evade, while in the air, halfway through a heavy attack, straight into a block after i fired off an sp1 from SW?

I'm not sure if anyone else can evade mid-heavy, but I've certainly noticed it with NC.

I'd be interested to know whether as a play controlled champ if NC would auto-evade out of a failed heavy, unfortunately, most human players don't play that way because we would get punished for launching heavies repeatedly when the AI isn't stunned.

So even once we get good enough not to just evade heavy attacks but intercept them, the AI has a bail out auto-evade. I've repeatedly intercepted NC's heavy to have him evade out. What should really happen to the AI, is what happens to us. If you commit to a particular action, it should face the consequences of it, just like the player.

Pretty much agree to this, it's also pretty much what DD Dave said. You go for a dash but you get intercepted, face the consequences. You charge a heavy, but the enemy manages to hit you, face the consequences. Passive evade takes the consequences out of the picture when it triggers, and it is absolutely frustrating.

The AI can pretty much be the clumsiest thing on the planet, since any action it is willing to commit to has a chance of it having absolutely no consequences should that action fail. This is why I just absolutely hate any evade champ on a stun immune, and even worse on a immunity node.

I've adapted to the fact that the enemy could evade any attack I throw at them, so me being countered isn't the problem. It's the fact I punch them and they evade, I immediately block after and they do some block hits before they charge another heavy and I intercept that, only for them to evade and then charge another heavy, and then they probably would evade when I intercept them like that again. It's infuriating!
