Void Rend not allowing you to target creature [Investigating]

Void  Rend kills a creature, yes, but it doesn't let you target it as the wording states.  I've had it kill both the first and last opposing creature, so I'm not sure what it's actually doing.

    And I've had it kill a middle creature. Chaos! Feels like the random part of the third mode was applied to the creature mode instead.
    Here's vid of it bypassing the targeting prompt:

    You mean Void Rend?

    Dammit if that's not the 20th time that I've gotten the name wrong. Thank you.

    It's possible that it's targeting the opposing creature with the highest power, but that's just been my experience the last few games and it might be a fluke.

    Also, when my opponent had no creatures but I did, and I played Void Rend to destroy their support, it instead asked me to target one of my creatures.  When I answered "Not Now" it just did nothing instead of destroying a support.

    Is there any update on this?  I didn't see it listed in the Bug Status thread.  Even just telling us how the card is actually working would be useful. Thanks.

    Pretty sure they only update that bug thread about one to two times a year

    The second bug (casting even when you choose 'not now' makes it much worse
    Could you please check all the 'destroy target creature" cards that automatically without target?

    Wasn't the Void Rend issue supposed to be fixed? 

    From what I can tell it still isn't letting you target creatures. It's just picking one at random.

    I just got Void Rend recently and I can't tell which creature will be destroyed by it, it looks random to me too.

    It’s one of a handful of “fixes” marked to be fixed in an upcoming build that already passed 

    https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/61987/bug-status-list-update-8-11-2022

    And those release notes make no mention of some of those fixes. 


    Also, the first thread on this still has it marked as being investigated. 


    Total chaos right now.

    Hello guys,

    I checked with the team, and this issue has been reproduced but is still open. The estimate was that it would be fixed in this version, but unfortunately, it was not possible.
    I apologize for the delay in fixing this issue, I will ask the team to fix this with higher priority.

    Still broken six months later. Just change the words to random. I think it's now picking the first creature, but maybe it's still random.

    Firstly, Riveteer's Charm black gem condition destroys ANY support(Enchantment, Artifact, Land, Emblem), should destroy Vanguard or Creature as per the wording on the card.

    Secondly, Void Rend's creature destroy, is supposed to be targeted, not randomly destroyed.

    I like Void Rend, just hate it when it destroys the wrong creature.
