I didn't take a screen shot because I'm stupid but look at this scenario: I was playing Priest and my opponent was a Quest Shaman (he completed the quest).
I played Illucia and we swapped decks, she was in my side of the field. I got my opponent deck and hand.
Next turn, Shaman used his hero power, making battlecries activate two times. So at the end of his turn, I got my deck and hand back and then we changed cards AGAIN.
My theory is: Since the battecry resolved at the end of Shaman's turn, it doubled it. Even if I was the one who played the card.
my guess would be because it's a battlecry and you swap decks it's kind of the shaman's card as well because it acts immediately with the swapping. it's just some computory logic there i assume. most likely not intended
Intuitively it's a bug but certainly an interesting glitch. Certainly not one that can be purposely exploited as it only works in a very specific scenario Vs 1 class and requires them to make the decisive action.
Although it could make a funny counter deck to Illucia Priest - Shaman fills their deck with bad cards and tricks the Priest into keeping it xD
This happened with Galakrond Shaman too. Although it was slightly different in that opponent swapped, played my Galakrond then next turn both deck and hand swapped twice and everything was swapped permanently.
I had a similar weird thing in Galakrond Priest mirror matchup. I was already Galakrond, used Illucia to use opponents own galakrond on him. After the opponents turn we didn't switch back our hands and deck. Maybe its something to do with using a hero card?

Now comes the question: Bug or feature?
hmm that is odd, indeed. i couldn't really tell
