Zombie Wizard firing double orbs

Product: Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
Please provide your Xbox gamertag or PSN ID. (Optional)
In what game mode did the bug occur? Turf Takeover (PvP)
Summarize your bug Charged Wizard attack firing 2 orbs at once.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I only found this in Turf Takover during the weekly event, firing a charged orb would on occasion fire 2 orbs at once instead of 1.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)

I have only seen this in my PvP TT matches, never in Ops, free roam regions, or Giddy Park. When charging up the orb on my main attack as the zombie wizard, I'd say roughly 50% of the time it fires 2 orbs in quick succession instead of a single orb. I can't find a pattern to this occurrence, it appears to be random.

    @Iron_Guard8 

    Thanks for the report.  I have a few questions:

    Do you notice any specific timing you need to do to get this to happen? 

    Do you release immediately after the orb is fully charged? 

    Do you mash/hold the fire button after releasing, or can you get this to occur with no extra inputs after releasing the orb?  

    When it does happen, do you know if it's dealing extra damage or if it's only a visual issue?

    @zombiex227 

    What platform are you running?

    Also if anyone has footage of this happening that would be helpful.

    @zombiex227 Have you also only experienced this occurring in the weekly events, or have you seen the double orbs in other game modes?
