Input issues after update; unintentional heavies...

in Bugs and Known Issues
The first time it happened I thought it was a fluke, until it cost me 2 losses in aw and one in aq.
Ever since I downloaded the update, I'm performing heavy attacks when I don't mean to. It has happened enough times for me to know it isn't me. I haven't changed anything about my play style, yet several times now in the middle of a combo I throw a heavy and get destroyed for it.
"Working as intended", kabam?

    Yeah that's been happening to me as well. Happens during the middle of a combo or whenever I try dashing in to the opponent.

    Device and Version: LG G7 thinQ

    Device Operating System: android version 9

    Mobile Carrier: t-mobile, unlimited data plan

    Cellular or WiFi: both.

    Game Version Installed: 24.1.6

    Game Mode: alliance war and alliance quest. I imagine it's the same thing in other game modes.

    Champions Affected: thus far it has happened to vision aou, venom, ghost rider, blade, and quake. But again, I imagine it's not champion specific.

    Active Boosts: none.

    No offence meant to anybody experiencing this, but maybe your screen just needs cleaning? I've had a fair few times where my character does stuff I don't want them to because my screen is dirty and that gets picked up by the touch screen.

    Happens to me occasionally when the game gets it's usual spurts of choppiness, my guess is the game in that moment is reading our multiple clicks as holding down because of the skipping... Might not be the same thing happening to you though

    It's not my screen. I've been playing this game consistently for longer than I've ever played any game in my life; I know my device and I know my play style. They did something this update that changed input time/duration. Probably some last-minute, half-baked effort to give all champions "the same timing and cadence".

    @Kabam Zibiit
    This issue has now officially cost me what has to be a freaking record number of losses in alliance events, and it's beyond aggravating. My alliance members are reporting the same thing in chat.
    Fix. It.
    Unless this was an intended result, which at this point wouldn't surprise me.

    @Kabam Zibiit" or @Kabam Miike
    At the very least, an acknowledgement would be nice. Considering recent events, I would assume improving communication/relations with the player community would be a high priority for you.

    Yup it's getting kinda ridiculous tbh..

    Also having the Parry and heavy bug... + The special bug.. i thought the special buttons would be returned to their previous position with the last update?
