[fixed]Azorius Ploy forces same target
Posted: 18 Oct 2021, 21:57Describe the Bug:
Azorius Ploy only lets you pick one target, and uses it for both its effects.
Which update are you using? (date, name)Which type? (duel, gauntlet, sealed deck)
dev master, b7df4eba0.
What exactly should be the correct behavior/interaction?
The two targets may be the same creature or they may be different creatures. If a card says "target" twice, it hasn't meant it to mean a previously-mentioned target for a very, very long time (I think since Legends? The first printings of e.g. Anti-Magic Aura and Boomerang were worded like that, and fixed by their next in 5th Edition and Chronicles respectively). It used to be that each mention of the word "target" always required a different choice, with Decimate as the ur-example; that's no longer the case, and I think it wasn't even when this was first printed.
Did you just make it worse?
Well, a little. If the card itself isn't updated, now the effect text will lie and say it only prevents damage the single chosen target creature would deal.
