That's pretty amusing :D

It's not something I've seen or heard of before. I'm curious what the cause might be.

Nah, I've seen this before. However not on anything default. It is like the attacking unit is in range to attack but somehow leads the target maybe behind itself. Therefore the attack is going behind it rather than in front. At least that is my theory.

Heh. Let's just say the prediction for targeting projectiles at moving targets in Myth is pretty "ad hoc" :P
