The Casting Animation of a unit, like the Attack Animation, is an animation that units have to undergo when casting spells. For example, when Crystal Maiden casts a spell, she first has to lift up her staff and begin to swing it (Casting Point), followed by slowly swinging her staff to the right in the same motion (Casting Backswing). The Casting Point and Casting Backswing, when referred to together, is known as the Casting Animation of a unit.
