What’s with the BM swing n miss?

[Kirch3b21]

Use power up, swing, do no damage, then takes his 3 shots...

Happens with builder barbs too

Little by little this game cares less and less about the poor ai. And don’t get me started on main base (healers/queen)

He's just too slow more often than not. If he initiated the attack, but something else destroys the target before it hits, the BM will continue with his movement, hitting air. Luckily enough for us that air punch doesn't subtract from the 3 ability shots he gets.

Reminds me a lot of pekka's, especially before their attack speed increase. They used to do this a ton as well.

It's a glitch on BM part. I don't think it's his AI, perhaps that's also possible for other melee troops, just nobody focus on Barbs.

As for Healer and AQ, there is nothing wrong with their AI, it's much more controllable than BM AI in my opinion.
