Selling Units becoming Enemy Units on Reserve

This is happened to me more than enough times that I've now had to make another post about this.

I believe it occurs when selling a unit with an item, but always happens when selling a unit with an item.

When the unit is sold it becomes an enemy unit on your own bench, with a red bar. It can be placed on the board as your own unit, taking cost accordingly. Say if you don't want to place it, the game will automatically fill it into your team as a unit. The unit remains an enemy with a red bar. You cannot (re)sell this unit either. So it's permanently on your bench.

I was just playing a match where this bug occurred, I purposely left a bugged level 1 red bar Khazix knowing this occurrence when it happens. I was 4/5. When the round began it was autofilled into the board. Not only did it fill my cost to 5/5 it also kept all its buffs, but for the other team. It gave my enemy its buffs: demon and blademaster. It automatically started attacking my units.

For some reason though it was pulled by the enemy blitz, but then continued to attack my units afterwards.

Please fix this.

So, turns out that if you do NOT start the round with it on the board, it will be filled into the remaining unit slot. BUT if you intentionally place this unit on the board, it'll count to your unit pool AND you'll get an autofill unit, putting you at one over cap as if it was wearing the something-something plate.

Here's where it gets interesting: It DOES count toward your enemy's synergies, but it is actually a free agent. It will attack them just as likely as you. So that's useful to know with assassins because then if you place it in the center of your board it is forced to jump to the furthest enemy, which it will register as everyone and therefore jump to your opponent's backline. I specify to put it in the CENTER because if you place it in a corner it might jump to the horizontal corner instead of an enemy corner. How? idk Pyke just really hated me. Pyke is a special issue because his ult goes to the FARTHEST unit, so there were times when he stunned both me AND my opponent. xD

One more interesting detail: You can reposition your units when you level up while the count is like 6/6, but once your ally unit is autofilled out, you can only reassign who is in the slots already filled (even from the bench) but cannot reposition anyone into an empty slot.

Knowing this, it is possible to manipulate it so that you can turn a dumb bug into an agent of chaos. Still a dumb bug but a lot funnier.

Edit: Two more things:

  1. You can upgrade this unit as normal.
  2. I didn't wanna experiment with putting items on it because sometimes it doesn't even spawn, but I assume you can put items on it.
