OMG Hawkeye SP1

I’m guessing this has been reported somewhere already but I’m so mad right now I couldn’t give two ****s.
What is with the huge delay after firing off his SP1 now? You’re locked in place for 2 seconds while he puts his bow away, you just stand there rooted to the spot and have to take a blocked combo (or worse if you try to dash). Why was this changed?! Who asked for this?!?
Don’t tell me, it’s being investigated and will be fixed in next month’s update, or next year’s update, or never...
I’m sick of the game engine changing for the worse with every update. The basic fighting engine should be static, it used to be fine, if the developers weren’t so hell-bent on trickle-feeding 12.0 back into the game with every update we could just get on with playing it like we used to.
Well done Kabam, you’ll be pleased to know this change has already made you some of my money in 5.3. I’m on the verge of dumping this game, the longer I play the worse it gets.

Unfortunately the key phrase here is "on the verge". Only time I've seen a genuine reaction was v12 Nerfgate. If I was unhappy with a product the last thing i would do is buy more. Sometimes I'm not sure who's intelligence I question more, the fools or the fools that pay to follow.
Incorrect the A.I. can virtually attack instant after the special. I ate an sp1 from an A.I. hulk and the A.I. dashed in so fast my character had not even gotten up from the piece of land the hulk threw at me lmfao
Oh and btw its not just one champ its EVERY CHAMP.
@O.P. There is another thread on the forum. You should really check the forums before making a new thread about something already being heavily discussed. It helps compile all the bugs.
That’s my experience. I can see now that all champs are affected to some degree, chain stunning with Storm and Thor has been nerfed as well, but Hawkeye in particular is really vulnerable after using a special.
This is a HUGE bug, this cannot wait a month. We need an urgent hot fix for this.
Yet if it was a "bug" that made things easier for the community, it would have already been fixed via emergency maintenance.
I miss the early days of this forum where you could SEE who flagged it or agreed with it, etc.
Btw, I noticed this while trying to run through more of 5.3 as magik takes forever to start a combo after her L2.
My solution is to not change every champion across the board but maybe stick to those specific champs that are issues. I don't mind kabam changing the content or aspects of the features but this is a direct change to the actual champions.
To be honest, I've all but stopped using special attacks unless they serve a specific purpose (like Magik's SP2 powerlock) or they end the fight. Just too many bugs using them.
We are aware of an issue that has been reported with some different Champions stalling after using their special attacks. We're currently working on finding the source of this problem. Can you all please contribute any information that you find to the Bug thread about this here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/24117/dash-back-after-special-not-working-merged-threads/
We're collecting information to help us track down the cause of the issue there.
They need to fix Vision first. He has been broken for months
Kabam needs to learn prioritization.
Fix one at a time. Otherwise you get a mess....
For now I suggest using a different champ than Hawkeye.
Not quite! This is not what the new Data delivery system does. We can't push a change that requires a client side fix without the use of the App Store or Google Play store. Furthermore, we always announce changes!
If a fix can be made server side, then we can, but have been able to do that since the beginning!
