> [@Takezo](#): > > In Dungeon I used Despond that summons Abject of Despond, but instead of summoning troop to my team It summoned it to enemy team. To get this down correctly, Abject of Despond got placed on a screen location in the enemy team, it was still under your control, right? Troop art and frame are rendered as if belonging to your team, so this is likely a visual bug, not a battle logic bug. ---

Hello 🙂 @Takezo Thank you for the screencapture! A couple quick questions: - Please let me know if you were able to use the Summoned Troop at all? - Please tell me if the Summoned Troop took any Action? (Either for you or for the enemy team) - What gamemode was this battle occurring in? - Please provide your Invite Code ---

Hello, - It seemd like the card was completely under my control. I could charge the mana, I could use spells but Im not sure what about skull damage. - It was boss fight in dungeon. - My invite code is: TAKEZOCZ I also made a short screen capture. Today I uploaded it on YT. Its unlisted so it will be visible only trough this link: [https://youtu.be/3KC1Ybnz9gw](https://youtu.be/3KC1Ybnz9gw) ---

Unfortunately this is still happening. I did a monolith battle and summoned a divine troop on the enemy’s side with the Fist of Heaven weapon. Interestingly, after I did skull damage with the new troop, it switched back to my side! Hadn’t seen that happen before! ---

Just happened to me as well! Flaming Oni summoned a goblin “on top of” the enemy gloom leaf. On skull matches it quickly moved to my side and then back to the enemy side. Stayed there until the end of the battle: ![1000003181](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/9/1/9144c6e27a0c6a6652ba4300ae7fb3a19f0b520f.jpeg) ---

So it sounds like this _might_ be just a visual issue then? Notice how the orientation of the troop’s spell art is consistent with troops on YOUR side, not the enemy’s. (Do you have a screenshot of this when the Troop has less than full Mana?)
