Game takes much too long to register it when you hold block

The game takes much too long to register it when you hold block. Any times a NB ganks you, even if you have slippery cp, you have dodge because holding block never works! Right now i had a situation where Ice Comet was casted on me and as soon as the telegraph sign (circle aroud me) was visible i started to hold block. Ice comet wet through unblocked after maybe +1sec in advance holdig block. What do i have to do? Because i play this game by avoiding all your bugs, by doing the neccesary workaround. Do i have to double tap block to register it?

I think it is a desync you are experiencing. They hit so many moves so quickly that they get priority over what you do next, so what appears to be real time, was about 1-2 seconds ago. It's all thanks to animation cancelling. 🙌

This is an interesting thought but i think, its not the case. The same thing happens when you get ganked by a NB and are pulled immediatly out of stun by the slippery cp. Because im a block trained player, other players dodge more, i block more, i immediatly hold block when this happens and all attacks go through unblocked. Happens not sometimes but every time, so i had no action before that, eg when u just stand at a flag and turn it.

Happens to me in PVE all the time, every single day, even in solo content.
