Chain spell issue.

Iv been trying to get a stupid spell working for ages, its a chain spell that should bind every unit it hits. Its base buff is spirit link. The spell has the buff set, has a duration of 15 seconds, and the trigger should be working, my problem is the buff isint showing up >.<. Iv tried lots of stuff, but nothing does much. Im grateful for any help at this point >.>.

What exactly is the spell supposed to do?

Make sure you base your buff off Spirit Link and that it has correct animations. Moreover, should your trigger remove any buffs, and if it does, can you show us the trigger? Thank you!

It doesnt remove buffs, but heres the trigger that adds the unit to a group:
Events
Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
Conditions
(Number of units in (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) has buff Cb/1 ) Equal to True))) Greater than 0
Actions
Unit Group - Add (Matching unit) to Soulbound

Hmm, well I don't know but seems maybe you should do a pick function that picks units with the buff, I have tried stuff like yours and I never could get it working for some reason, oh well maybe Daelin can shed some light on the cause of this problem

You actually based your spell off Chain Lightning, spell which doesn't leave a buff now matter what duration you set it. The spell is made to ignore that field. Base it off Spirit Link.
