    Whirlpool brings EVERYTHING with it, including observer wards, couriers and engineer's turret. Whether it's intended or not is not for me to say.

    The affector that teleports units other than Kraken has an empty effecttype and targetscheme all_other_nonboss_units (allow="unit" restrict="building,dead,corpse,tree,chest,self,Bos s,powerup"). Voodoo Wards aren't excluded. It also pulls the spiderling. It teleports most everything, best I can tell.

    No idea whether it's intended behavior.

    Of course its not intended.

    If my understanding is correct, voodoo wards were just changed from a gadget to a unit this patch, so they need to be included in the list of excepted units to be pulled now. Probably just a small oversight that will be fixed soon.

    I'm very curious to see if you could abuse this by teleporting Jester's ward while jester channels it. IE: Kraken drops whirlpool near the enemy team, voodoo jester about a charge distance away starts ulting. Kraken rushes onto voodoo and grabs the ultimate, just to bring it back into the middle of the enemy team.

    Probably not practical, but would be funny.
