Guild Wars 2

It’s nice to have clear animation to dodge roll or defend against them. But, it’s not nice when said animation is used only to cancel the cast without proper punishment: the big blue and the big green have been released, it means it was casted and should go on proper cooldown.

And 600 radius on Jade Wind is too much.

I used to do this kitten all the time with signet of spite on a dhuumfire necro. Good times.

I am not sure about revenant skills but dont all skills with cd have the standard interupt cd of 5 seconds if you cancel cast them?

There should be absolutely no insta-cast or mimicking insta-cast with cancel.

But Esports, if you are going to make a mistake you should be able to stop it!

In all seriousness, fakes are a legit part of sports, especially martial arts. The only difference is, faking a roundhouse kick is vastly different from faking a mega-uberstun turn every enemy around you to stone attack. You cannot fake a flying double back kick and you shouldn’t be able to fake other powerful attacks either.

Exactly my point. When you see the large blue dragon, it means the spell was released; if you see the jade wind forming, there is no way to stop it and recovering cooldown.
