I'm wondering if the community here knows how this works. I played a game as Qhira today against a Medivh comp.

At one point in the game, I hit the enemy Lili with Revolving Sweep. She stepped into a portal, and Qhira just stayed attached to her when she came out the other portal, so I was able to reactivate and stun her. However, later in the game, I used revolving sweep on Medivh, who then portaled, and when he moved through the portal, I was disconnected and he escaped.

I'm trying to figure out why this interaction is inconsistent. My main theory is: During the first instance, when I was not disconnected, both portal exits were in vision since it was on top of an allied fort. But the second time, Medivh portaled to the other side of a bush that was beyond vision.

The other theory is that there's some kind of spaghetti code that treats Medivh's usage of portals different than his allies using them. I don't think that's likely, but it was something I considered.

Does anyone actually know how this works?

I don't think this intended so I'll call it a bug. At any rate it behaves differently from every other interaction in the game.

If you B, or hearth, while you're in the Mines, and you are dismounted, you arrive back at the base unmounted. So if you're like me and you often press B, then shift queue something to do while you're watching something else, you'll miss that your character is moving at unmounted speed toward your destination.

I'm not sure this is a bug, but this is contrary to every other map's behavior, so I thought the community should be aware.
