mage blink bugged or intended?

Member, Alpha Two
Right now every cc cancels the blink immediately (clip 1 and 2) or has a weird interaction where in clip 3 the tank uses his trip but the debuff never shows and the blink cancels itself out with the trip but does not apply the instant cast buff.

Are these interactions intended or just bugs? If they are intended it feels really really awful for the mage. Especially if u play vs higher skill opponents who are really good at finding the right timing. Someone could argue this is some form of skill expression like wait out the follow up cc and then blink. But in reality u either only have 1 sec to react or just die immediately (clip3) or the amount of cc thrown at you is just so much that you can not use ur cc break ability for several seconds (clip 1 and 2). From a mage POV it just feels extremely awful.
Also a 4th option where the mages gets flung away cc'ed: https://medal.tv/games/ashes-of-creation/clips/k4ipnx102lX7XLkxY?invite=cr-MSxsa0IsMjk1MzUwMDA0
I think some kind of immunity is required with blink. The ability is already heavily disadvantaged when u cant turn while cc'ed and have to blink potentially into the opponents team.
