Hiya,

Since the last patch I noticed that Skullcrusher's passive does not seem to be working as before the patch when Skullcrusher gets stunned.

I am running a speedtuned comp. Before the patch, whenever Skullcrusher was targeted by CB's stun, his passive would get rid of CB's stun, his A2 would be off cooldown and then he would use it right before the two AoE attacks of the CB. After the patch, however, when Skullcrusher gets targeted and stunned, when his passive kicks in, his A2 still has a one turn cooldown and his A2 rotation breaks.

It seems that the passive is still working as it removes the stun and Skullcrusher can still take a turn, but his A2's cooldown behaves as if he has lost that turn and it remains on cooldown for one more turn.

So far I have only noticed this on UNM difficulty, I will be monitoring my NM runs to see if this happens there as well.

Can anybody else confirm this or am I going nuts? It seems a broken CA champ would be all over the forums but so far I haven't seen anything.

Thanks, cheers.

Hi

Could you send a short video from this ?

Yes, I can confirm this happening in Brutal as well!. Thank you for posting this, I was thinking it was always this way but couldn't figure out how I dropped from 10 million damage to struggling to get 8 million.

Exactly what you say is happening. Skull gets stunned, the passive removes the stun but the cooldown on A2 doesn't drop.  This really sucks. Not sure how this change happened.  Hope it is an easy fix.

Hi, Guys!

His passive is not broken, it works like it worked before the patch.

What you mean is that his skill doesn't reduce cooldown when he gets stunned, but it has always been the same. Why doesn't it reduce the cooldown? Because at the start of the turn, the skill is on cooldown, then Skullcrusher's passive activates and reduces the duration of the stun from 1 to 0, so it expires. But the check was before the decreasing of the stun.

No, you’d be incorrect. The stun isn’t allowing the rotation to continue as it always has. This skill is a 3 turn cool down (when booked) and if he gets stunned it becomes a 4 turn cool down. This skill wasn’t like this prior to the patch. 

Hi, Guys!
