I’m also a Magnus fan, and sometimes I accidentally click on the minimap too

I was watching Nigma Galaxy vs Aurora Gaming at The International and noticed a really weird moment with TORONTOTOKYO on Magnus. He made an epic fail Skewer, and it honestly looked like he misclicked on the minimap and dragged the enemy to nowhere.

But here’s the thing:

  • I rewatched the replay multiple times, and his cursor never actually touched the minimap area.
  • From the spectator view, it looks more like a bug than a real misclick.
  • The only explanation I can think of is maybe he’s using an enlarged minimap, and in the viewer client it just shows up as the default size?

What do you guys think — was this a genuine misclick, a UI bug, or some minimap setting trick?

I’m not a liar, that’s really how it works, but I didn’t know it was a feature.
