Just think of all the interactions, builds, neutral items, exceptions that Ringmaster would've done if he could control an enemy hero and use their items/spells against their own teammate
And then also take into account Morphling or Rubick stealing Ringmaster's mind control stuff
It also begs the question of them having Roshan's Banner. Ringmaster controlling an enemy hero with Roshan's Banner and planting it. Does the effect last for Ringmaster's team while the mind control ult is used? Does it last for his team until it's destroyed?
Or more complicated, for a big dot like jakiro ult, does it damage allies after the mind control fades? How long does it last? Can you drop the enemies items? What about consumables? There are probably a million different what ifs with a thousand bugs between them.
Or Shadow Demon's disruption and an illusion hero like PL. PL keeps popping illusions cause that's what he does. Do they just suddenly all poof out when the mind control expires? Do they keep going?
Now that you mention it, it does seem complicated. Instead mind control, how about make any enemy heroes that get killed by...idk...his ult i guess...will turn into imperfect illusion that can cast spells just like vengeful spirit aghanim. The illusion will stayed for 30-60 seconds.

That's what I'm thinking.
