I have several other UbiSoft games that use this very same DRM, but not Assassin's Creed 2. Here's what happens in those other games when I lose internet connectivity.
- The game inexplicably freezes with no error message.
- After several moments (I'd guess about 1 - 2 minutes) a message finally appears on the screen telling me that "UbiSoft's servers have become unreachable".
- After another few seconds, if you still can't contact UbiSoft's servers, the game drops you to your Windows desktop and all unsaved progress to that point is lost.
To be clear, it doesn't have to be YOUR internet connection that fails. It could also be a problem on UbiSoft's end, or anywhere in between. The game only cares about being able to contact UbiSoft's servers, it doesn't care whose fault it is.
To be fair, I've played A LOT of the latest Settlers game and only been kicked out maybe five times. However, much like with the early days of Steam, the first few days of actually owning Settlers 7 I couldn't play it at all, because UbiSoft's DRM servers were under heavy load and wouldn't authenticate my game.
I would not recommend buying a game with this type of DRM, and had I known the games I bought had this DRM, I would not have bought them. I will never buy a game with this type of DRM again.
Suppression a stun which you cannot cleanse out of. It is also unaffected by merc treads / any CC reductions, such as Irelia's passive. The only two ways to get out of it are either the caster gets interrupted or you use the active on quicksilver sash.
The suppression acts as a normal stun + locks all summoner spells (flash, cleanse)
The stun part of the suppression stops champions from using active skills (as of 16th Feb 2011), with the exceptions of:
Passive abilities will kick in, such as Anviva's egg.

Suppression does not prevent move-block abilities from having their normal effect.
Malzahar's ultimate has a leash range, it is possible to cancel a friendly Malzahar's ultimate by pulling the target out of leash range. If your move block does not place the victim outside of leash range, Malzahar's ultimate will complete as normal.
Warwick's ultimate does not have a leash range (but see below). If you move his victim, he will continue to channel and deal damage while appearing to savage thin air.
This youtube shows a Blitz grab connecting shortly after Skarner's ultimate begins:
Skarner's ultimate will not be broken by move-block abilities - instead, it will override the move black shortly after it begins with its own effect.
