Has Kabam acknowledged the Spiral special bug yet, and if so when it will be fixed?

So - one guess which champ I pulled out of the gift today.

I love mystic champs and would like some more Serpent counters in my deck, but I’m reluctant to R3 her with the bug.

@Pikolu have you heard anything? For some reason I think I remember seeing you comment somewhere that Kabam knows about the bug, but I’ll admit that may also just be wishful thinking.

    Yes they're aware and no timeline that we're aware of.

    Thank you for the quick response @Demonzfyre

    This lines up with what I've heard. Hopefully it is fixed in January update, but don't hold your breath if it is longer due to the holidays

    Try throwing her sp1 after a "non-ending combo" hit. I did that and successfully land sp1 everytime.

    Thanks for the tip @AegonTargarуen - much appreciated

    They do sometimes still parry the next hit, doesn’t work 100% of the time

    I don’t see anything in the patch notes indicating this was addressed. Anyone used her since the update and if so are you still seeing the bug?

    I hope they get it fixed soon. I want her and this is a huge discouragement. She wasn't like this before the recent BG "unstoppable" season.

    It's not that big of a deal. There are ways around it but it was just announced they will include her fix when they deploy a hotfix. VFX things, spiral and juggs will be fixed.... Hopefully.

    Seems there able to get it out early

    There’s also a similar Dazzler bug on her Sp1 (gets blocked when used at end of combo and defender has room behind him).

    These are great champs. Please fix both soon.

    Yes, glad to see this is going to make it into the hotfix vs. having to wait another month. Good news!

    It is actually. I don't to be doing things differently than how you're supposed to use her. You have to be aggressive, minding how to finish combos while fighting, when you're not supposed to, is stressful, mostly because the ways around are not always reliable

    May I know what the bug is? I have the champ as 7-Star and yet to use this champ except for one run against everybody know who.

    Her Sp 1 gets blocked while in the middle of the special. During BGs, it would get blocked and trigger the defender's Unstoppable buff. And of course, defender immediately countered with an unstoppable K.O

    Exactly. Don't know why some act like it isn't a ✌🏽big deal✌🏽 when it really is. Shouldn't have to play around the way she was designed.

    Looks like fix is confirmed for Jan build via hotfix.
