Onslaught bug

Is anyone experiencing a bug with Onslaught's Stun lately? He should inflict a passive Stun when Parry Stun is Cleansed or the opponent is Immune to Stun. I was playing against Jabari Panther in war, node 14 and not one Stun Cleansed for inflicted back as a passive. I tried against my personal KP in practice mode, and was unsuccessful even there.
Is there anything I'm missing? Attached is the SS from AuntM regarding Onslaught's Stun.

Not sure tho it could just be another case of kabam forgetting to add the mechanics
It does work against KP. I just tried it and it was fine.
Both bishop and onslaught target purify right? I think kabam just forgot to add this
The purify ability is, well, an ability. It’s a purify from a champ’s kit or node, and as such it’s subject to ability accuracy. That’s why purify AAR from omega red and apoc can shut down champs like kingpin and agent venom from shrugging debuffs.
The purify effect however occurs just when a debuff is removed. It’s not an ability and so isn’t subject to AAR, it’s an effect that happens as a result of something. A purify ability TRIGGERS a purify effect but not vice versa.
Cleanse is an example of triggering a purify effect, even though cleanse itself is not a purify ability.
When cleanse sees a debuff, it triggers a purify effect. This is why bishop and storm can trigger a passive stun - they listen for a purify effect. But apoc, omega red and onslaught’s mechanics listen for a purify ability. This is why cleanse gets around these champs.
The wording sucks, and needs to be cleared up. But the explanation is simple once you get your head around it.
But Onslaught's ability is comparable to bishop. Bishop applies stun pasisve when his stun debuff is purified by any means, similarly whenever Onslaught's personal debuffs (parry stun, organic magentism, daunted and crush) are purfied BY ANY MEANS it should apply as passive. I think Onslaught is bugged.
