Targeting Bug? In player perspective I clearly clicked on ES but the hookshot went into the trees instead

Yep. This happened to me once as kunkka. I was kunkka support along with shadow shaman. So shaman shackled the offlaner, yeah, so there’s like no way I could fuck my torrent up. Guess what happened? My torrent ended up casting all the way in Africa.

This has happened to be several times before. It's not common but it is annoying as hell.

The clockwerk one can be kinda hard to confirm, because your mouse is in the direction that the hook is going a few miliseconds earlier.
However the windranger one sure does look weird. Might be your settings that is causing something to go to the top left? Like a buggy mouse or some background software

I had this mouse for a while and it wasn't this buggy when I first used it. However, I just checked the mouse software and it said I needed to disable some microsoft settings. Maybe that was the culprit.

Try that out! the reason im suspicious something is wrong with your software and not the game, is that when the game gets confused, it has a set point it just directs anything to (Like if a hero accidently got way out of bounds). This point is in the middle of the map (Dire midlane right next to river) so if the game would bug out, i would suspect it would make you shoot your abilities in that direction instead.
Anyways, hope you figure it out!

Wtf seems very weird bug

do you have quickcast on and have it on key up? that might be the reason

I have it on quick cast but not key up.

We have seen the vector targetting bug. SingSing had a video where He pointed Pangolier swashbuckle in a straight line and it went 90 degrees to that line.
Like literally his cursor never went off that line.
I've also had it but I don't bother posting on the Dev forums or here anymore about bugs, because Valve have proven they do not heed player feedback unless they're pro players. They just fix random things at a slow trickle.
But in your video it almost seems like some strange QC interaction, your cursor went in that direction at least
