Arctic Spear has only the particle and sound effects while the avatar stands by and does no animations. Even rotating the spell and casting it in 360 degrees, the avatar stands facing one direction as the spell effects go off around them as I rotate my mouse and fire.

Below is a small video captured on Overwolf replay. I am not the best with technology, so hopefully I did everything correctly and you can get the video to play. LOL
