[Gameplay] Orianna ball disappears

Was in a game yesterday, playing Orianna. I started a recall when my ball was off of me and wondered what would happen if I e'd myself as I finished my recall. As it turns out, it causes the ball to disappear. Possession of the ball buff does not appear on bar and the passive armor and mr from e passive are not given.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Log into client
  2. Press play
  3. Select game mode
  4. When selecting champion, select Orianna (haven't tested if this happens with any of her skins, as I do not own Ori)
  5. When in game, have both e and q leveled up at least once
  6. Use q to reposition the ball or use e to play the shield on another ally (basically make sure Ori doesn't have the ball on her)
  7. Begin recall
  8. Have e ready to use on Orianna before recall finishes
  9. As recall is finishing (in the last instant before actually jumping to the fountain) use e on Orianna

Orianna will return to fountain. Her abilities will be grayed out for a second or 2, as though the ball were in motion. The ball will have disappeared. It will not show up on Orianna, or anywhere on the map. Using w or r will activate the abilities under Orianna, as though the ball were on her. Casting e on Orianna will give her the shield, but the ball will not reappear and the armor and mr from the e passive will still not be given. Casting e on an ally or activating q will cause the ball to reappear, as if it had been on Orianna. I have not tested it personally, but I have read that this bug also occurs when using e on an ally just as they finish their recall as well.

Sounds like a good way to make Orianna a Ninja.
