Backdraft Intercept

Hello, I have heard sime rumors that backdraft intercept mechanic is broken. I have never actually seen Kabam admitting the AI is bugged (only on some screenshot from the forums) nor have I seen any updates on this matter ever since. I want to ask in which state this mechanic currently is ? I intend to rank up my 5* Magik to r4, but she relies on this quite a lot and I don't want to waste precious resources.

Still not working properly. If It's a necessity for a rank up decision, don't do it

The only thing that is broken since thanos endgame event is the backdraft intercept from hitting the block. The AI has a faster recovery time (at least that is what everyone thinks) so when you hit the block and dashback they can follow you and hit you first. This does not happen when you them normal.

The reason why ppl think its the recovery time is bc the is 1 more bug:

Sometimes the AI can dash out of a combo when you hit on their block or throw an SP in your face.

I still think magik is very good tho. You just need to parry after hitting their block or bait a heavy or intercept normal.
