First ability of Professor Onyx has stopped working [Fixed]

Pirhotek

The first ability of Professor Onyx has stopped working since Midnight Hunt was released.  It shows you the four cards to choose from, you choose one and accept but then nothing happens.  Luckily it doesn't drain your Loyalty or use up your one ability per turn so can still do the second or third ability.

Is no one else unable to use Professor Onyx's first ability?

I've just tried and it works as intended.

I have tried Onyx many times now with different decks and events and the first ability never works.  I am on iOS with latest release and Onyx is at level 40 (so ability is at level 3)

That's strange. The first ability works okay for me in my Android tablet. I booted up my iOS one to check and played a couple of matches with Professor Onyx and the ability worked fine there also.

I want to iterate my Prof Onyx is currently level 42 so the first ability is at level 3.  I suspect it is only broken at this level and only when selecting a non-spell from the 3 cards offered.  This makes the ability in some ways "useful" broken the way it is. You can use the ability and if you don't like any of the cards offered and at least one is a non-spell, you can select it and then it becomes like you never used the ability and you can keep all your Loyalty and wait.

@Pirhotek I am having the exact same issue and my Professor Onyx A1 is also at Level 3. Her A1 works if I select a spell, otherwise it does nothing. I literally can't get a non-spell in my hand. If I chose a non-spell, the menu showing the three choices just closes, no loyalty is deducted, and the game continues on (including letting me use an ability of hers again, including trying the A1 again). Unlike you, I don't like this because sometimes I want a non-spell (especially since my deck runs only 2 creatures, it is often the case that I want a creature so that I have some proactive gas, rather than a reactive spell).

To the folks who said Onyx is working as intended, did you try and use her A1 to select a non-spell. The bug I have is that selecting spells works fine. It just doesn't work when you attempt to select a support or a creature.
