Ormendahl cannot block

I noticed today that neither Westvale Abbey or its transformed version (Ormendahl, Profane Prince) are able to block after giving them Vigilance / Defender. Has anyone else seen this?

Somehow I doubt this is the intended behavior, because the "X" indicates "can't attack", not "can't block".

    I believe this card not able to block is correct and is also for balance.

    otherwise, you will get an OP 35hp blocker for 10 mana, which will transform into a 15/13 attacker/blocker once its westvale abbey side hp drops to 10.

    Decktester needs to update. This card costs 15 to cast.

    (1) 15 to cast
    (2) can still be destroyed with creature removal unless you have a sphinx

    I took this card out of all my decks because it is currently garbage.
