Basically the spell works like this.... you remove a buff or disable from an enemy or ally and you have a subskill that places the disables and negative buffs on enemies and the positive buffs on allies. Imma draw a picture in a second

It's possible, but I think most of it has to be done manually.
If the unit has "Stun" buff, you need to detect from wich skill it's the stun. For that, you need to create a Stun buff for each ability, and each ability level. Same for all the other effects. Then cast your "Keep Buff in a Bottle" in the unit, detect wich buff the unit has, and add the respective ability to the caster.
 
Possible.

U need to have a hashtable that store all buff id link with the ability id of the buff.

1st - target unit (take buff)
2nd - detect buff
3rd - store the buff id
4th - target unit (return buff)
5th - order dummy to launch ability (by the ability id) according to the stored buff id

IMO. This is high level spell.
 
Possible, but not recommended.
You will have to adjust all spells in your game just to make this one work.

Make a simpler spell, for example something that steals buffs and converts it into ability to cast firebolts. Same fun in the game, but much more easier to do.
