SO while working I was also playing in the arena. I am taking calls so it is common mid move to have to stop and come back a few minutes later. I forgot which spell I cast and clicked on the enemy think attack but it was Dryad and I gave the enemy troop barrier and 6 life!!! I then tried again, same result! OK then lets attack our self. Runic blade against myself and BAM damage dealt!?! So yes this is kinda Darwinian to say since only I would attack myself but I don’t think I could ever do that before the patch

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened?**  
not see my spells work against me.  
**What are the steps to make it happen again?**  
rinse, repeat,  
**Do you have any screenshots or video you want to share with us so we can see the problem? Attach them to your post!**

This is a known bug with 3.2 update, targeting doesn’t work (you can target enemies, not just allies). Fix is coming as soon as they can push the client update. They only did a quickfix for Elspeth, Black Beast and Sacrificial Priest because they can instant kill the enemy team.
