if i use united standBADCARDNAME if one of my units would be recalled or damaged does the spell still resolves because it still on field or flizzes ? i dont have it to test it XD.

The spell will resolve and target the minion you swapped.
In general: for spells and effects that do multiple things, the game tends to err on the side of doing what it can and NOT fizzling--e.g., if I play an Augmented Experimenter to deal 3, discard, and draw, but then my opponent interrupts with a Glimpse Beyond on the damage target, I still discard and draw.
The exceptions I know about are Vile Feast (no healing or spiderling if target dies first) and Glimpse Beyond (no cards if target dies first), and I think that's because the concept is that the target is specifically fueling the other results.

In the SI cards' cases, it's because of the word 'to' in the text. You have to do the former to trigger the latter.

Good catch. I think it's kind of similar to cards like Get Excited! in this way, which says "To play, discard 1 card." It's not quite the same, obviously (For Get Excited!, discarding is the prerequisite to being able to play it in the first place), but I agree that the word "to" seems to be a key term here.
I just created a thread on Shadowshift dealing with pretty much the same question. It's surprising to me that a targeted spell would still hit the swapped unit for Stand United, but not for Shadowshift. I think it's inconsistent, and I prefer Stand United in this regard as the units simply 'trade places,' which means the spell that was cast still has a valid target to hit.
thanks guys, it would be cool if it negates but atleast now i know not to use it against recall it will be good against challangers trough.

Tbh it's not a great card at the moment. The meta trends towards buffs over big units; six mana for two Barriers feels steep in Constructed outside of specific Fiora setups or something. I find myself comparing it very unfavourably to Back To Back
