[bug] having issues landing specials after combo again [Fix in Progress]

Using Android (Google Pixel) and after a MLLLM combo, I can't land a special, as the AI blocks really fast. It was working for the last month but I can't ever since the latest update.

Same problem same phone. I think it is also after other 5 hit combos depending on champ. Example and easy to replicate.
I have Archangels L1 blocked,.this used to land 100%.
I am able to land Visions L1 without issues. This happens in AW and AQ. Combos LLLLL, MLLLL.

Same issue. Android nvidia k1 shield.

I've been having this problem for weeks. It's especially bad against harder opponents where the AI reacts very quickly. Even if I hit the special button while my character is still finishing the attacking animation, the enemies are able to block all of my specials. Usually it's just after a 5-hit combo but with the faster AI opponents they block basically all of my specials no matter what.

Still an issue on Android, and now on iPad mini 2

Been having this problem for a long long time, it's especially noticeable when using yellowjacket since the ai blocks his special1 and 2 a lot which makes using him a pain sometimes.

There's a lot of other characters to but don't remember them atm, I barely got many successful special 1 and 2 with him In my war because ai just kept blocking them.

This issues a long with all the others makes combat almost unplayable occasionally and I wish they would fix them due how much it's costing us players.

Hey there everyone. Sorry to see that you're all still having issues chaining from a combo into a special attack. We're currently still looking into this, but it's looking like the team is hoping to have a fix in for 14.0. I'll keep you all updated if anything changes. Thanks!

I was fighting crossbones in arena. Stunned him with yj and went into a three hit combo with a heavy finisher. I launched the heavy before the stun ran out and the animation completed but during the animation crossbones launched his l2 and then combo me to death.

not sure what this was. Maybe the stun clock and animations not properly reflecting the internal timer?

hurricant

Is this going to be fixed in v14?

Any update on this?

Still not fixed. I'm on Android, using Yellowjacket and I can't land a special after a combo. The AI blocks too fast.

Kabam Wolf

@hurricant sorry to hear that. I'll let the team know.

Same here, there's still a few issues that they supposedly "fixed" that are still plaguing the game.

Hey @hurricant. Could you let me know the specific opponent(s) and game mode where you're not able to combo into a special with YJ? Also, would you be able to provide a video of this? Thanks.

@Kabam Wolf did you guys actually fix anything ?? seriously apart from some pretty pictures and new buggy menu's the main issue's seem to have been ignored, did you cash in on the homecoming advertising and left the rest as user problems????... apart from the connection issue's this i also noticed has stayed the same... you guys setting out to make the game as frustrating as possible or something?

Happens in quests and arena. I don't use Yellowjacket anywhere else. Happens against different opponents (not the same each time). I'll try to make a list

Need separate update for android...

I have this same problem in iOS with Iron Man and his 2bar. Juggernauts and Magiks and more in Map 6 are blocking my 2bar.

@Kabam Wolf Just got an example. Playing Act 4 (venom level) and there's a path against Doctor Strange. Did a 5 hit combo with Yellowjacket and then a special and he blocked in.

Yellow jacket and iron man/superior iron man are still bugged.
