[Gameplay] Tibbers Movement Bug on Annie

There's currently a bug on Annie manifesting itself in two forms both in the normal game mode and in Black Market Brawlers. When attempting to order Tibbers around with the use of R while recalling or under the effects of Trickster's Glass, it will cancel the recall / break the disguise. This may sound normal, however moving Tibbers by use of Alt + Click, neither of those effects will be broken. In the case of recall, this only first appeared around the start of July, and Tibbers could be moved around with R without breaking the recall previous to that that.

I've read around that some people may only be experiencing this in ranked and in Black Market Brawlers, thought I haven't attempted to recreate it in normals yet, only ranked and BMB.

Steps to Recreate.

  1. Get to level 6 in either Black Market Brawlers or a Ranked Match (Would appreciate attempts to recreate it in normals as well).

  2. Cast the ability "Summon Tibbers".

  3. Once Tibbers is summoned, begin to recall or use your Trickster's Glass. At this point, try to move Tibbers. If you used Alt + Click to move him, you will remain in your disguise, or continue to recall.

  4. Attempting to use R to command Tibbers around will break either your Recall or your Trickster's Glass depending on which you were using at the time.

I have been an Annie player for the past few seasons and this bug was first noticed by a friend around the start of July, and I was quick to recreate it. I later noticed while playing Black Market Brawlers that the Item Trickster's Glass reacts in a similar way. If someone is able to post a video of them recreating this bug, it would be greatly appreciated.

It is not. source: dozens (hundreds?) of games farming minions with Tibbers while recalling

I haven't played but 1 game in the past month, so I haven't seen this bug, but this is even worse than Annie's other bug

Yeah it is not normal. I do not have video evidence (and cannot get any), but I do hope that the slight bug is solved, because it can be petulant to have your recall interrupted because you wanted to use Tibbers to farm, scout, bodyblock, etc. (assuming you use R, which I do).
