Ivy's Kudzu Bomb can hit through very thick *solid* wall

Not a bug. If you're in the radius you take damage.
Shouldn't be a thing. No AOE in the game acts like this. I was in the hidden area inside my base and Ivy was hitting me from outside because she happened to throw a kudzu bomb outside and it passed through some very thick walls

You have no idea how terrible this spell would be if it also went off LOS.

Plenty do. I suggest you check out the sandbox and test some heroes.

Now how do you suspect these 'area denial' spells would function if they had some LOS check? Truth of the matter is, kudzu was already given a significant nerf vertically. If this also required LOS from the centre it would be such an unusably bad spell I'd be clamouring for an AOE root nuke in its place.

This is a bug report, not a discussion about what's balanced or not. If you would check the replay (and re-read my title) I am talking about very thick walls (like areas of the base where you should be safe from AoE being thrown an outer wall) and not small objects. I am fine with Ivy's Kudzu bomb penetrating small objects in the way and thin walls - that totally makes sense and is not what I am referring to.
