Played minion visually returns to hand after cancelling battlecry

[Patashu]

If you play a minion that has a Choose One or a minion that has a Battlecry that targets another Character, then right-click to cancel playing the minion, followed quickly by playing another minion from your hand (while the first minion is still animating back from the Battlefield back into your hand), the second minion will get played into the Battlefield, but sometimes will also visually bounce back to your hand right after it has been played. The minion is considered played and in the Battlefield with mana costs paid for, but will visually remain in your hand until you play another card, whereupon the minion will go back from your hand into the correct Battlefield position.

This can also happen if you cancel a targeted Battlecry minion very quickly after playing a minion:

Confirmed in 3.1 with Druid of the Saber and a Puddlestomper. (There's also a Knife Juggler trigger to show timing)

Confirmed in 3.2

This is possibly an instance of this bug?

https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/3qehof/i_played_arcane_golem_and_this_happened/

If so, it indicates that if your charge minion is visually returned to hand, it is clickable in your hand, plays the attack sfx but prevents you from doing anything.

Showing that the bug exists in 3.2 and that if the second played minion is a Charge minion, you can't attack with it this turn.

Report that doesn't involve a targeted Battlecry minion, weird:

NEW VARIANT:

http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/forum/topic/20742204160

It's possible for the played minion to not return to play when you end your turn. If your opponent attacks and kills it, it will look glitchy.

I cannot reproduce this currently with canceling a battlecry. Is it possibly fixed? Can anyone else confirm?

[troggnostupidhs]

I had this happen on mobile when playing cards rapidly

[troggnostupidhs]

Same thing, multiple cards on mobile. No battlecries. Just a few cards and end turn and the last minion bounced before being played.

[troggnostupidhs]

Not exactly the same. Kripp plays a minion at the end of his turn and it bounces and resummons.
