tested. Not fixed.

Jericho fails to remove crippling blow from Skullcrusher.

[AnAdolt]

Yup, the issue with Thaddeus was filed previously but we didn't get around to fixing it in v1.28.

@Bulaman123 Welcome to the forums! Jericho Spellbane's ability was changed in v1.28 and it targets specific attached cards now, rather than removing all attached cards on a target. So after you select the hero or ally card, you then have to select the attached card and then you'll have the Target button to use his ability.

[Gondorian]

Death Mage not being able to cancel its target is not a bug. You can't cancel the casting of any other ally. Once you have chosen to cast an ally, it will be cast. If you want to foolishly cancel the ping damage of DM once he is already entering play, then that's your choice.

[jjsia]

What gdc said makes sense. You do not get a second chance for accidentally casting allies.

[Flycheung]

Perhaps it's best to remove the cancel button instead? Else it'll just give false illusion that you are cancelling the whole process, just as what spell does.

[AnAdolt]

Whenever a card enters the targeting phase, you have the option to cancel playing the card. This is the case for single target cards, such as Fireball, Shriek, etc. Cards should be kept inline so Thaddeus should have a cancel button like other cards that enter targeting.

Downloaded for PC (Win 7 x64) and tried to play twice.
Both times the game let me do my first turn, the opponent (AI) drew, then froze.
I restarted the program and lowered the graphics settings after the first game, just in case. Same result.

The AI was playing Logan Stonebreaker.
Tried again against Majiya and the game worked. (Rather, the AI completed the first turn.)
