Kind of hard to submit a photo of blocking not working but it has cost me many Hero Showdown matches

I noticed this started happening after The Chosen One update.

Involves every saber hero.

Please go to this report: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Disabled-Block-BUG-Block-Stops-Working-No-Block-Animation/m-p/... and share your experience there. This BUG has been happening a lot more then before, especially after the Chosen One Update, but it's a day 1 BUG. Many people have been coming here to open new reports on this BUG, but if we don't focus efforts on a single report, soon this forum will be only about this BUG.

There in that report you'll find info on possible triggers to this BUG, and also the Deplete Stamina Method, the only known method to fix the bug without the need to die or respawn.

This happens to me on Playstation as well so I assume it is a problem for all consoles

Ok so finally I decided to close this report. This specific Block BUG has been properly fixed some months ago (after February 2019). It took them a long time to fix this issue, they tried several times before but none worked. I have gathered a lot of info to help on solving this BUG for one year, and most of it is shared on this report.

But then, after the game got completely broken around Anakin's launch, devs decided to finally tackle this issue. At that point it was so abusive that Kylo could distribute this BUG freely just by freezing enemies. After they announced it fixed, I made a test to check it properly. That test was my suggested method to trigger this BUG on purpose since April 2018, and if performed correctly would always trigger that BUG. I performed it correctly, but the Disabled Block BUG didn't trigger. However, the Dash Strike Visual BUG actually triggered (which is a BUG that always triggered together with the disabled block bug mentioned on this report). That made me believe the BUG was fixed for good.

But we can never be so sure, so I waited. And here we are now, several months after said fix, and the BUG hasn't resurfaced. There are other Block BUGs, but this one can finally be put to rest. It's great this BUG is finally solved, but the bad thing is that this one had a fixing method ingame, the others don't necessarily have one.

We're free from this BUG, but we aren't free of all Block BUGs unfortunately. At least one very serious and very disrupting BUG got fixed. Another Day 1 BUG finally fixed.
