Walking out of the veil when Infernus activated his ult, the VFX + sound FX continued with him still in and me outside. Until just before it actually finished where for a brief moment the sound and visual AoE border indicator disappeared. Attached clip shows this series of events.
As far as I understand veils (and please anyone correct me if i am wrong), I actually shouldn't have seen anything once I had stepped out and Infernus remained in, correct? Veils are suppose to at least cover the visuals of all abilities meaning the split second where the visuals disappeared was 'correct' for the veil interaction, & it was seeing it before then it was wrong.
Anyway, the real problem of what happened is that I assumed the ult had finished and you see me walk forward when the VFX and sound disappeared before the stun actually goes off... I would not have been stunned if I did not walk forward.
I then asked my duo to come into a custom match to test it in several ways with us both as Infernus (things such as standing outside the same veil looking inside at Infernus activating, reverse of that, starting inside and walking outside like in the clip etc). As far as I understood, the testing ults worked as they should. We were not able to replicate this bug where it remains visible with Infernus inside veil while walking from inside to outside and having the visual/sound FX disappear for a split second only. (Heck, I even went into explore NYC before clicking post thread to make absolutely sure of how it should have looked/sounded using a bot to puppet inisde the veil while observing outside... it was not like in the clip).
last minute thought before I click post thread (I still think what I have typed before here is useful so won't edit): this might have something to do with Paradox ulting him while his ult was still charging, if the AoE visuals disappeared during the swap, it might make sense. However this is not the case. The sound + VFX disappeared after the Paradox ult is over. So it's looking like it is the 2 ults interacting with each other that has caused this, but the way it did does not make sense at all. I would understand all effects 'pausing' during the swap then continuing after it (though would likely be a bug in its own right due to important enemy ult informating being removed prematurely). Instead, a free Infernus after being swapped had his ult sound + visuals disappear.
& yes, it may have been a Street Brawl that doesn't matter cus funny silly mode, but if it can happen in SB it can happen in a ranked match where the walk forward into stun might genuinely change the course of what team wins in the end.
As a bonus though, testing due to the experience lead me to also discovering this bug to reply as a 2nd reporting player to help test the bug out.
