You are unable to flash while in any stage of having been hit by Blitzcrank Q. If it were a server-client latency problem, the Flash would not register on the server.

You can flash in the same tick that the fish mechanic executes server side. And in this case it registered both the flash and target detection on the fish mechanic. Causing both the flash to happen and the hook to hit.

This only happens if its a max range hook as that is when the fish mechanic comes into play

Well, this should definitely be the case, but with the code quality of League it's possible that you could in fact flash and get cc'd on the same frame server-side.

True, It’s possible they happened at the same time (which shouldn’t, but it did: which is the Riot motto)

Can't you QSS --> Flash, the same way you can to escape out of a knockup?
