Falcon's Recon Scan locked on and Magik is still triggering limbo as AW boss. [Under Investigation]

Yes another issue guys. I use Falcon 90% of the time in AW, his recon scan prevents limbo 100% of the time when locked on. Last 2 wars when fighting Magik AW boss her limbo has been triggered despite Recon Scan being locked on every time she crossed a power bar threshold. At least 2 of those times MD/dexterity buff likely caused Magik to cross a power bar threshold, but I was locked on so even if MD caused the power gain it should be irrelevant. I was for certain locked on a few other times when I was attacking her and caused her to cross a power bar threshold, yet her limbo still triggered.
I was suspicious the first time this happened in AW, but then the very next AW it happened again so I knew it was an issue. I couldn't take a screen shot because it's AW and a boss at that, so a screen shot is basically an automatic death for my champ.
This is literally the only reason I use Falcon for AW. He's weak and pretty lackluster without his Recon Scan.

Thanks
Do you guys have ways of going back and looking at match data? Or can you pretty much only rely on screenshots and captured videos? I only wonder cause it's a common debate out there. Thanks.
That's an excellent question, I'd love to know this as well. I try to provide as much information as possible when I encounter gameplay issues/bugs, and screen shots when possible. But you basically never know when these thing will arise so you can't really prepare for a screen shot or video.
Thanks for the timely response, the community certainly appreciates the effort. Keep me posted.
Any updates on this issue yet?
Confirmed! Mystic Dispersion bypasses Locked On
I can actually see this from both sides tbh. Limbo is a defensive ability when magik is hit, thus bw et al negates this effect...in this instance the power gain is the result of the crit rate buff expiring but that happens because magik gets hit....
In the interest of balance i think locked on should negate this kind of limbo, but that's just my opinion
L.M.A.O. The music is so good.
Falcon's recon scan bypassing limbo is virtually his best asset, he's mediocre otherwise. His damage output is garbage and it's not like you're soloing a war boss Magik with Falcon. C'mon throw us a bone here @Kabam Wolf @Kabam Miike
So Magik's sig ability is a passive and IS a defensive ability.
If it's accepted that "Darkchyld" (Limbo) IS a DEFENSIVE ability, then we look at the wording in her sig...
"After filling a bar of power, Magic has a 20% chance to enter a state of Limbo for 3 seconds. The chance increases by 12.5% after filling 2 bars, and by 25% after filling 3 bars.
Based on current Signature Level, chances are multiplied by 65.54%"
According to that wording it should not matter at all how that bar is filled; being attacked, attacking, MD, etc...
Falcon has 100% defensive ability reduction when locked on. So unless Magik's sig IS NOT classified as a defensive ability, then she should NEVER proc her SIG ABILITY limbo when he is locked on, her brief limbo from special activation is offensive so should not be subject to defensive ability reduction.
Did I miss anything guys?
The murkiness in this instance comes from an agnostic power gain causing an offensive limbo to trigger
The only thing that can affect it are concussion champs like quake gambit or cable
The only reason I ranked Falcon up was because of his ability to block Magiks limbo..
Without him being able to do it I find he's not worth using @Kabam Wolf @Kabam Miike
