Elektra Shadow Step not preventing damage [Devs Aware]

Elektra's Black prevents all damage, but sometimes it doesn't.

Most obvious when she is really low on health, but I just managed to fire off Shadow Step. Instead of being "protected", she was killed.

It may be similar to Thanos' ability not firing... something related to cascades and other passive abilities firing...

Will post back if I can narrow it down :-/

    I can confirm.

    It looks like it may be the value of strike tiles that is getting through.

    The damage she doesn't prevent is from the enemy strike tile value on the board.

    Also why is it that the enemies affected by Shadow Strike aren't damaged until next turn? It should either be specified in the tooltip or fixed to actually damage the enemies when the tile is cleared.

    Okay, so Shadow Step doesn't effect Strike tile damage. That seems like a pretty glaring weakness considering she's designed to counter Strike Tiles. Is that a bug? And if it's intended can we get an update to the description to reflect that so we're not left scratching our heads when damage gets through the Shadow Step.

    Yes, it's a bug. It's been reported before, and the devs know.

    Hi Everyone. This is the same issue that Elektra faces with her Shadow Step, as well as Colossus with his Immovable Object ability.

    All of these are addressed in an active bug report currently in the database.
