Avacyns judgment

Avacyns judgment is not working. Upon casting and selecting a target it wont cast.

I actually notice none of my madness cards working as intended. Must you discard and gain mana through madness for them to work?

Also..inner struggle does damage equal to power, not toughness.

    I haven't encountered the madness portion of this card yet but I do notice how it says "repeat 3 times" on the card. That would lead one to believe that it triggers its effect once and is then repeated 3 times.

    So hopefully this is a bug and the value for number of repeats is off. If the card text is wrong, then this card will lose value.

    Edit: With Wolf of Devil's Breach in play, I expected it to trigger madness when a card was discarded but nothing happened (in regards to Avacyn's Judgement). AJ is bugged in multiple ways apparently and not worth using until fixed.

    You have to select three targets, they can all be the same target but you have to select it three times.

    Yeah, it's worded awkwardly. It doesn't say "repeat an additional 3 times" though. It should probably read "repeat an additional 2 times".

    Also madness on this card definitely doesn't work. I've use Behold the Beyond with Twins and AJ both in hand and Twins will get madness mana, but AJ wont. Same behavior if I only have one or the other in hand by itself while casting BtB.

    I am more inclined to think it should be cast 4 times.
    Repeat for me always implies additional times in itself

    Also let's look at original card:
    Image.ashx?multiverseid=409895&type=card

    Now that card gives the chance to deal damage(and thus target) each creature once and each opponent once.

    Since in magic puzzle quest we have always 1 opponent and 3 creatures at max, the more obvious translation would be to be able to target each creature once and the opponent once for a total of 4 targets.

    Also(and that's my opinion) since it is a rare it should be at least on same power level of exquisite firecraft.
    Having higher mana cost should deal more damage
    Yes there is additional versatility advantage and also madness... But let's be honest the power creep in SoI is real.
    This would be the least problem in that regard.

    Exactly! Repeating something doesn't include the original action as a repetition. Thankfully some of us beta testers are here to support the devs with our grammar skills. Even those of us that aren't native English speakers lol.
