Lavahound's glitch? or my bad luck

[xXMrBlackXx]

Okay,so this morning i was raiding with Lavaloon at Champions. And one of my lavahound was getting shot by an air defence with like a quarter hp left. Then,a seeking air mine was detonated and boom,down goes my hound. And...
NO PUPS. so did like the seeking air mine prevent it from splitting or something? Was it meant to do that or did i just have dumb luck? :/

Maybe it got hit by red bomb right after it popped?

This. This is the only plausible explanation for that. Anything else and I think it's a glitch.

Yup, maybe a wiz tower? Or just a glitch.

I'm guessing you are not Irish.

A well time Wiz Tower blast or Air Bomb can instantly kill all the pups before they spread out. They are only close for a split second though, so it's rare.

Hulk was streaming a war a few weeks back when this very same thing happened. Went back and forth freezing, starting stopping the replay to be sure- it was a fluke deal where a trap detonated them at the very instant they were spawning.

As stated above, the lava pups were killed immediately by the red air bomb or the wizard tower splash damage.

Replay your video, and try to notice the nice ring of skeletons like below. Below sample is the lava explode, the pups were immediately killed by a floating red air bomb closely following behind.
