I think there has to be a certain distance between your character and the ground for the decoy attempt to be valid.
If you’re dropping almost vertical to the ground it won’t work, but if you’re at an angle with enough distance between you and the location you’re dropping, it works as expected.

I have mained Mirage this season and have no issues with the decoy from the dropship at all other than what I have mentioned above.
I am almost certain the angle which you drop at dictates whether it is successful or not, as I play often enough with this character to have noticed a difference between said angles.
Perhaps it’s trial and error, I’m speaking from me own personal experience.
