What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Heroes vs Villains and Hero Showdown is almost becoming unplayable to me for the two bugs I’m encountering. If Vader force chokes me, I’m being violently thrown around which is not too bad but the other bug is I’m LOCKED out of blocking and attacking with the lightsaber. Besides abilities, I’m incapable of defending myself or pushing objective and it ruins the gameplay entirely for me. Ever since Version 1.27 came out 03/06/2019, the problem has gotten 10x worse and it happens to me at least 2-3 times in EVERY game I have played.

Being violently thrown around? Here is the report I opened about it: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Vader-s-Choke-Shaky-Camera-BUG/m-p/7590293
And losing the ability to block and attack? That's odd.
The BUG that disables your block, is this one: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Disabled-Block-BUG-Block-Stops-Working-No-Block-Animation/m-p/...
The BUG that makes you lock onto vader after a choke and lose the ability to turn your camera or attack is this one: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Locked-on-Vader-after-Force-Choke-damage/m-p/7151476
Maybe you got both together, but I've never seen this happening.

It's getting worse. Yesterday Rey was able to block (at least animation worked fine), still she swallowed up all Kylo's strikes and Palatine's lighting's, just abandoned the match. Can't play the game anymore, seriously.

I’ve spent a couple of days playing matches just to get examples, and it has gotten worse. I’ve noticed the problem occurs the most when I’m fighting against Kylo Ren, but it’ll occur randomly with other Heroes/Villains.
Vader’s choke hold camera spaz is still an annoying issue when being ganged up on.
Here are my videos I recorded, I even managed to get both bugs in one video right after the other.
Vader Choke Bug:
Blocking Lock Bug:
Both:
So I just found this video on the Battlefront 2 subreddit listing and detailing the bugs we’re experiencing.

So yeah, your choke bug is the one of the first report link I gave, the no block one belongs to the second report, but the 3rd bug is actually Anakin's Interrupted Retribution BUG: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Interrupted-Retribution-BUG-Anakin-can-only-Passionate-Strike/...
Please, go to these reports and share your experiences there. A single report on just one bug is better then multiple reports on the same bug or reports with multiple bugs
