Ebony Maw Awakened Ability not working against Peni.. Is it normal ?

Hi, everybody.
I’m encountering a bit of an issue on the Peni Parker fight in EOP.
I wanted to complete with the #Defensive : Utility objective with Ebony Maw and I did, however I especially took him for this fight because I have him awakened and it clearly states that : “When the opponent is suffering from a Falter debuff their Auto-Block Ability Accuracy is reduced by 100%”
That ability does not work against Peni and if it doesn’t work it should state during the fight “True Strike failed” or True Sense/Accuracy failed.
Nothing in Peni’s kit states that Ebony Maw awakened ability can’t counter her Auto-Block nor the nodes in this fight.
I was forced to use the Falter debuff as a source of damage instead of a source of utility which is the way I intended to use it.
It did cost me more revives but that doesn’t really matter, I’m writing this so other players can be aware of the issue and Kabam can change this non-interaction for future fights.

    You can’t stop Peni’s autoblock with ability accuracy reduction

    It's a bit different but very similar one, maw sig ability isn't working against Guardian . He is still autoblocking.

    Familiar name lol

    But I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but I do think I have an explination
    Guardian has a 15% chance per Force Field to auto block, to a max of 75%
    Ebony Maw reduces ability accuracy on the autoblock by 100%

    Now this is where it gets funky:
    When Guardian has the Falter his AA is -100%, AFTER that the autoblock chance is added (8*15=120) and bumps it up to 20% chance to auto block in this instance
    The ability never exceeded 75% chance to happen thus not breaking the rules set in his description

    (I do think this is weird and atleast warrants a response from Kabam to see if this is intended)
    (Also sorry if Im bad at explaining stuff, Im no DNA)
