Beamsplitter Mage/Illuminator Virtuoso Bug
I recently created a deck including both Beamsplitter Mage and Illuminator Virtuoso. One of the ideas in the deck is to target the Beamsplitter Mage with an instant or sorcery spell while also having an Illuminator Virtuoso in play. Beamsplitter Mage's ability will copy this spell, and I choose the copy to target the Illuminator Virtuoso. However, when I do this, the Illuminator Virtuoso's connive ability is not triggered, despite it being targeted by a spell that I control. I talked to two MTG judges about this interaction and they believe that according to the game rules, Illuminator Virtuoso is supposed to connive when targeted by the copied spell created by Beamsplitter Mage.
I was wondering if this interaction is working as intended, or if there is anything that can be done to fix this issue?
I am playing MTG Arena on PC. I first experienced this issue in an online match versus a human opponent, and replicated it in a bot match to confirm the behavior.
