Is Mysterio bugged, missing a node, or am I accidentally baiting heavies?

If this has already been addressed please just direct me.

I've been having issues with Mysterio being significantly more aggressive with heavy attacks. Below is a link of me taking black bolt against the master difficulty, and there are several instances where I feel like I haven't baited heavies. I feel like it makes sense that Mysterio would heavy more often because of the stall tactics the player needs to take after an sp1/sp2. I just feel like a node stating an increased frequency might be missing, or he's bugged.

    He does the same thing in uncollected. He's very aggressive with heavy.

    He seems to be able to throw of heavies so quickly

    His heavy attack triggers poison on the opponent if he has a chemical gas charge. His AI must be programmed to spam heavies in order to apply the poison. Many champs have their AI programmed according to their abilities (Mordo being defensive in his power gain phase, Sym Spidey spamming specials to gain evade...)

    That's a really good point. If that's what it is that would make sense to me. Is this a first instance for heavy spam? Because I can think of several champions that would benefit greatly from heavy spam, but I've never had it happen to the degree that I felt it was being spammed. In this case it feels aggressively spam-like, which is why I feel it warrants a node describing it as such. Once he's released I'll have to try and find someone to duel, and see if a character owned version spams heavy just as much.

    That's sound logical but what the point of trying to trigger poison on a poison immune attacker ?

    How smart do you think the AI is?
