Impetuous Devils bug

Impetuous Devils is retaining the "destroy" status effect post-death.

Thus, if you cast an iDevils, and it dies, and then recur it to your hand, when you subsequently cast it, it won't attack at all. It'll go on your board and when its turn to attack comes, it'll immediately die and not deal 6 damage.

Every iDevil only works once, therefore, although the "give a defender" ability still works.

This is eerily reminiscent of the Thing in the Ice bug, where if it was bounced when flipped, it retained that status marker and would immediately flip on reentering the battlefield.
