Gamebreaking cooldown recovery bug

So past week i've been experiencing strange issue on my CoC Ice Nova build, where after picking up some altars from Eater of Worlds my cooldown recovery for skills linked with CoC would stop recovering at all, meaning i could not trigger a single spell even though i had 100% crit chance on Cyclone linked with it. This issue also applies to all skills with charge recovry such as flame dash, where you can clearly see that once charge is used it does not recover it's cooldown.

Couple of things i noticed after dying to this issue is that after comming back to map i'd normally trigger my linked spells for some time and then stop as if my maximum amount of power charges had to do with it.

Additionally i noticed that taking the linked skill gem and putting it back it SOMETIMES fix the issue, but not all times.

Worth noting is that i'm 100% sure my hits land, because i can still deal damage to these monster with just Cyclone and even trigger Herald of Ice if i manage to kill them, but not spells linked with it and Cast on Critical Strike support gem.

This is gamebreaking bug as i'm burning through maps i'd normally be able to do due to this.

Couldn't find anyone else with this issue so far.

Someone else reported a similar issue some time earlier in this league.

The cause of the issue was taking altars with the downside of "reduced cooldown recovery rate per power charge". If you have enough power charges to take it to 100% reduced cooldown recovery rate (after accounting for sources of increased cooldown rate), skills with cooldowns that are used will not come off cooldown.

This is still an issue.

With the negative cooldown recovery per charge altar mod once you hit -100% recovery on a skill due to charge count the skill stops recovering (which makes sense while you have the charges) but still doesn't recover once the charges expire. You have to re-socket the skill to reset the recovery rate.

This can't be intended, they "removed" snapshotting in 2014... Anything that requires re-socketing a gem HAS to be a bug.

Bcs you should be able to bypass the downside of any cd by just removing the gem and putting it back

Huh? Did you even read my first post?

If I have a positive CDR value (or anything that's not -100, because that appears to be the breakpoint) on a skill that's not recovering charges I call that a bug, not a downside.
