Warlock’s specials not connecting

Many time after 1st medium from warlock his sp1 and sp2 are not connecting. Yes I definitely launch sps immediately after hitting, distance between opponent and warlock increases so much that by the time his special hits the opponent, opponent is already blocking. Please fix this asap. This issue is definitely not affecting company but it is affecting players.

I agree that it needs to be resolved, but I am curious as to where you use parry, Medium and then heavy when you use warlock?

He can only reliably chain his special after a 2nd medium.

This should be resolved hopefully. Iirc, HappyMcMuffins lost a fight against Aarkus due to this during the summoner showdown.

I use everything which warlock has to offer. Parry heavy is best option again regenerating defender. Intercepting and launching sps also important part of his game play.

The bug is that he whiffs specials after the first medium.
In happymcmuffins match this bug didn’t come into play. There was no whiffing. He didn't let the basic attack connect before activating sp2.

Sorry, I made a mistake. I meant to type where you use parry, medium and then special, instead of 5 combo into a special or simply parry special. I play warlock parry heavy till I reach sp2 and 5 combo sp2 for the damage, or 5 combo sp1 for power drain if I need to.

Being flexible as to when you choose to connect your special is part of the game. There are several reasons to use a special after a single medium off the top of my head.

A character/node timer is about to expire and you need to get the special off before it does.

There is a hit counter of some kind active (usually from a node).

The opponents power meter only allows for one basic attack before special 2.

I'm sure there are plenty more reasons that could come up.
