When the last unit of a player is a Konnik, the player is defeated when the Konnik dies, even if the Konnik is still mounted and needs to be killed twice.

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. have a player with only a Konnik unit
  2. let it die

The Konnik should respawn as unmounted and the game continue.

If the only unit you have left is a Konnik you’ve already lost. And this is not really a bug it’s intentional.

A dismounted Konnik can strike down an enemy last unit or somehow complete objectives and win you a game. Maybe devs can delay the victory/defeat trigger for a few secs.

Of course it’s a bug – it’s easy to see how it’s an unintended side effect of the defeat check “are all units dead?” because it has no way of knowing that a new unit is about to be spawned.
