That should not be normal. The summoned troop should come status free.

Sorta make sense. Still like the idea we once discussed where devouring a poisoned troop would cause the devoured to become poisoned.

Well if we did that then would the devoured troop that is on fire cause the eater heart burn?  
If devour also takes the status effect (which can be interesting) then that would be a nerf to devour would it not?

This is very true. Wonder if they would nerf devour like this? This would also boost all status effects.Then to balance decrease the mana cost of devour troops and increase the % chance. Wait this is spinning into a bad idea.
