[Reported] Succubus Queen's Mana Color and Upgrade Materials do not match

Version: 8.2.0 (Switch)

Description:
Succubus Queen is a Red+Green+Yellow colored Troop, but her upgrade materials require Purple Traitstones instead.

Which one is correct?

Are there any other examples of mana colors not matching traitstones?

EDIT (Nov.6): Looks like it just got hotfixed – Succubus Queen’s upgrade materials are now base Red, but with +Green and +Yellow Arcane traitstones. (Which is the simpler fix to be sure – doesn’t impact any teams that might use her in color-restricted modes)

None that I know of, but of course you cannot check for this after fully traiting a Troop.

I actually discovered this more or less on accident due to a few habits I’ve developed:
1 - When I fully trait a Troop, I level it to max.
2 - When I have unlocked a Troop’s 2nd trait, I level it only to Lv.5. (This makes it easier to find them whenever I get a spare Orb of Wisdom.)
3 - Otherwise, I leave the Troop at Lv.1.

I’m also generally able to afford enough copies of the Weekly Event troop to get four copies and Ascend it to Mythic, after which I purchase more copies strictly for the Arcane Traitstones.

At any rate, I filter my Troops by the same color combination as the Weekly Event troop, sort by Level, and start visually scanning for what Troops can be upgraded (Lv.5 if one trait remains, Lv.1 if more). I do it this way because “Upgradable” necessarily cannot consider Orbs of Wisdom/Ascension as an available upgrade option.

Last Week’s event troop was Red+Yellow so of course Succubus Queen also shows up when filtered by those colors, but being a Mythic Troop (aka. 3 colors) I didn’t initially pay much mind to her not actually requiring any Red+Yellow Arcane traitstones, instead assuming she just needed the other two color combinations (Red+Green and Yellow+Green).

Last week was when I finally noticed why – also note that even the lesser Trairstones (Minor, Major, Runic) are all Purple, not Yellow.
