Bar explossion bug | Forums

[Void_Away-]

Bump on this old bug or mechanic flaw; Sometimes units that didn't die with the bar explossion get pulled back close to the new kid to possibly destroy another bar.

Are they being flung across the level and bouncing back? Or are they being drawn toward the explosion itself, closer to the New Kid than they were before?

They don't bounce all over the screen like the lightweighted ikes do, but you can see them fly some distance away from NK for the whole explosion animation (which lasts about 2 seconds) and as soon the explosion animation is over you can see, the melee units specially, are drawn next to the NK to continue the hitting fest. So they are not drawn closer than they were, usually, but they just return to the same position they were when they took the bar; couple this with for example a nerfed or not hallelujah and there's just no time to get some energy to respond or to make a comeback. My suspicion is that this happens sometimes because the attack animation on the attacking already started but wasn't completed, and sometimes causes it to be drawn back to complete the hit they were trying to inflict, so idk if you can easily reproduce this.

I'll let the team know these details so they can at least attempt to recreate it. Did you happen to notice if it was happening with some cards more than others? And how often has this been happening in your matches?

[Void_Away-]

Mostly melee, from my memory I just remember program stan, witch doctor token dog poo. I'm not in that scenario often myself so I can't say it happens often, and I'm sadly not playing as much, but I knew of this bug so I let you guys know about it.

[Ubi-Toller]

We appreciate it! I'll mention those cards in particular. Thanks for providing the details you remember, it really helps.

Yeah this is definitely a problem that happens to me about 1/4 games

[Ubi-Toller]

Have you noticed any of the same cards being involved?

[Flyers-fan]

Yes it definitely happens but don't know the cards or the reason why but please figure it out!
