Summary

Community Sentiments
Some players like SuperArppis expressed confusion, questioning why Stasis can no longer handle Barrier champions. Others, like Echowing442, suggested that bypassing mechanics was unintended, and Stasis was designed to counter specific champion types. Yotika humorously remarked that the unintended mechanic was indeed unintended. Oliferro raised the point that the fix might have been for a bug rather than an intentional change.
Stasis Mechanics and Player Behavior
Users such as BaconIsntThatGood and GundamMeister_874 discussed the role of Stasis in countering Overload and Unstoppable champions, emphasizing the need for using the right tools for the job instead of relying solely on Stasis.

Timing and Strategy

Mate, it’s fine.
