Shadow Weave melee buffer bug

[nicoolus]

If you buffer using shadow weave after a heavy melee, enter shadow weave invisibility, and continue to continually heavy melee you'll stay invisible and not exit the invisibility state.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load into match as any character
2. Buy Shadow Weave
3. Hold Heavy Melee key
4. While holding the key use shadow weave
5. Continue to heavy melee until the buff ends

Here is a video of me doing it on doorman. I ended it early in the video but you can do it for the entire duration of the buff:

Repro Rate: 5/5

I didn't see this anywhere else so sorry if this is a repeat! I also don't see why you would want to do this but it exists!

I was going post this as well but I am just going to bump this. It also happens with Veil Walker if you heavy melee through the veil. With Veil Walker specifically sometimes you can even let go of the button and stop buffering and your next heavy melee still won't cancel it. Light Melee always cancels it though, and sliding seems to break the effect on Veil Walker.
