This is happening while in the middle of her Special attack. It happened 3 times during the Storm fight, and again during the Mantis fight. This has allowed the defender to instantly recover and attack.

Can somebody provide insight on what's going on?

    You are not the only one. It has happened to me, but more than once.

    Her sp1 has an attack that is whiffing or the hitstun is too short so the opponent is able to react in the middle and block. I reported this to kabam a couple of days ago when BWCV wrecked me when trying the dimensional beings challenge

    It’s happening in all game modes. I had it happen during war and thought I was going mad so I recorded a vid during the side quest have no idea how to upload it though

    Sheesh. That's the worst defender for this to happen against. Smh.

    In all my years of playing, I've never known of an attackers hit whiffing when using a special attack. This is wild 😂 Add this with the dropped inputs, random other bugs, random attacker dash, defenders instantaneous recovery after knock down that we ourselves can't do,......

    How are going to play the game?? Lol

    Pretty sure Dazzler has a similar bug going on with her SP1...

    It used to happen a lot with specials that had an in special "stun" where they would recover before your special ended and Samoa Joe out of the way.

    Happens quite frequently. There were a ton of whiffs on specials in 60 fps too, like sandman had a hit whiffing in his sp2 in 60fps only. I think all of the ones that I found have already been fixed though

    Hate the bug, but damn, her animations are fire.

    Thank goodness I didn't dare use my 5* on BG

    Noticed that as well using Spiral against serpent as well. Sometimes no issue & others that happened. Thought it might I might have been slow. Guess not. Thanks Crashed

    They fixed the sandman one? I need to go check that. Titania still misses a hit on her sp1 on 60 fps. I just saw that one today so I know it's there.

    Spiral special attack is getting blocked halfway through it when you throw the special after a combo ender into a special. Whether it is a MM or MLLLL or LMLLL. Not sure why it does that but it doesn’t seem to get blocked after throwing special directly after a non combo ending attack.

    Maybe this will help some people a bit until the issue gets fixed. I’ve sat and fought about 40 times and thus far every non combo ending thrown special is safe and unblocked. Let me know how it works for others.
