I tried to make the ability Parasite into a hero ability wit 6 levels, but for some weird reason it doesnt work. The "cursed unit" doesn't get the buff and doesn't spawn minion when it dies. Any ideas on y this happen?

hmm it works well on dota (Broodmother)
Anyway I think I got it
It doesnt affect heroes so remove the non-hero thing in targets (I think you did already) and make set Duration - Hero to some value
And Reset the everything else to test it working
Then make changes step by step to learn the problem if it isnt duration or targets

A unit will only spawn your summon on death if the field "Combat - Death Type" is "can raise, does decay" or "can raise, does not decay" for the unit that has the parasite debuff (decay shouldn't matter). I dont even think the parasite ability would leave a buff on a unit that does not fit these requirements (I know black arrow doesn't). If you change those fields for heroes, keep in mind spells like animate dead and raise dead would probably work on them too (haven't tested).
