Look: my hero is attacking myself. It is not a problem in my code, so I guess that’s something like `enemy.attack(enemy)` in my opponent’s code.  
@moonwatcher348 is that true?

Yes, this is true, I was checking what I could make the enemy do and forgot to change it back, one sec while I comment it out, I barely use codecombat these days

Now it’s even worse…  
Please change to a normal code in both of sides.  
Can this bug be fixed though?

This is my original program though… it has no opponent attacking themselves… I’ll check later

I found a way funnier bug:

Watch this match. Can someone fix this?

Lol you’re commanding your own artillery, maybe the devs could make it so you only get specific properties of the opponent?

Yeah, `\/` makes me to do that. He also makes me to cast drain-life and fear on myself.
