Opponent launches special while blocking my combo

I'm in AQ Map 5 node 103 with my Classic DareDevil vs. Yellowjacket. I've got YJ down to under 5%, but pushed him to L3 territory. I have a L2 ready, and I'm hitting into him blocking with a normal 4 hit combo just trying to get some extra damage against him hoping the block damage + blocked L2 damage would get that last 5%. After hit 2 of my blocked combo (a MLLL combo) he initiates his L3. Can't say i've seen this happen before, and doing some RoL tests against WS I can't seem to pull of a L3 while i'm blocking against a combo...

    This has been happening for at least the last 5 releases - there's an issue with the gap between the 2nd and 3rd hit. Often, hitting a champ's block will result in them evading mid-combo, or firing a special. This is similar to the immediate recovery issue where champs can launch a heavy and then a special before the heavy animation is complete or any counter can be made, or launch a special and evade a counter before the special animation is completed. Seems to happen much more frequently when in AQ and AW than any other modes, and with harder AIs than the medium/easy.

    This happens to me against modok and medusa due to autoblock. They take two hits with the red shield and then are able to interrupt me
