nearby allied units will go into an uncontrollable frenzy, attacking
the frozen ally for a short duration.

forced to attack each other and will both be unable to use items or
abilities. The victor gains permanent bonus damage.

When Berserker's called, a Dueling unit will attack alternatively Axe and his Duel opponent, canceling animation everytime due to the very low attack interval Berserker's call and Duel force.

In a similiar fashion, the hero under Wyvern's Winter's Curse will attack alternatively both the frozen ally and his Duel opponent, canceling his attack everytime. If you add berserker's call on top of that, it can either :

  • Destroys the matrix
  • Divide by 0
  • Give a seizure to your hero

This alternative fashion come from the way the buffs work. While under one of those buff (Ill take Berserker's call for example) the buffed Hero trigger and attack versus axe every 0.25 sec. However the attack action itself can be overwritten by a triggered attack toward another target forced by one of the other buff. Thus your hero will alternatively change target. Depending on when the buff are applied (e.g. if the frequency of attack for either of those 3 buff is synched with another) the interaction between those spells become very weird.

If your hero has a really low attack rate (such as Alchemist with +Attack Speed items), you can attack fast enough to perform an hit on both target alternatively.
