helm of the host
Helm of the Host is giving me tokens of any creature equipped with any equipment card.

It's been bugged like this for a week or two. I didn't complain because...well...it was benefitting me (although totally unbalanced), but as of today, it ceased making the copies non-Legendary. So it wouldn't properly copy the one card it was supposed to (my Bruenor Battlehammer).
So two outstanding problems:
1. Copying any creature that's currently equipped
2. Not making tokens non-Legendary -

I can’t figure out how to get a capture on iOS of the log, but here is a screenshot of the mess made against sparky, also noted that mirror box seemed to not care which tokens were witch for the +1/+1 as another bug, the game started getting weird so I no longer knew what was a result of the bug, originally found it when test running a different deck against sparky.

Lost my screen shot, but I was playing against someone who was using this bug. He was making copies of his dragon commander, can't remember the name, but it's ability when you cast an instant or dragon spell you deal damage to any target other than commander equal to it's mana cost, and also making copies of the legendary dwarf that gives all other dwarves +1/+0

The text on the helm that reads as, "copy of equipped creature", is applying to all in play creatures who are equipped rather than only the creature with the helm.
This should be an easy fix. please address this soon. I use this card in every deck and I forfeit every time this happens.

Happened here as well, was playing Anra Kennerud and opponent dropped helm on turn 4... in two turns it copied both my Sram and Anra for no reason, thought it had to do with Anra's equipment interaction but turns out they just broke Helm.

Yeah the same happened to me as well, except with much, weirder interactions, I made my own post about it too in hopes that it helps spreads the problem.

Just happened to me as well, and opponent continued game.
Game type was just a best of 1 Explorer non-ranked game.

This just happened to me as well. Opponent played a Helm of the Host, went to combat and it created a copy of my creature that had an entirely different equipment attached to it.

I'd also like to report this happened during a Historic Brawl match.
My opponent's commander "Zur, Eternal Schemer" had an equipment attached to it, however my Helm of the Host was making copies of his creatures!
Now technically, the text on Helm of the Host says "At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a token that's a copy of equipped creature, except the token isn't legendary."
Does this mean that we have been interpreting the text of the card incorrectly, or is this a bug that is making copies of creatures regardless of what the card is attached to? Otherwise shouldn't the text say " copy of AN equipped creature"?
Weird interaction, glad to see other people are facing this as well.

Just had this happen, played Shadowspear after Helm of the Host was already on field (unequipped) and equipped creature with Shadowspear. It proceeded to think Shadowspear was Helm of the Host and made a token of the creature with Shadowspear on it. Thinking actually equipping Helm would fix the error, but no then made a copy again and for the Helm and for Shadowspear. This victory didn't feel right afterwards, please fix.

Yes, I'm running a equipment dech and thus give me a very unfair advantage. Plus it's annoying when my opponent gets tokens of my Helm.

Hi. I concur - after I played Helm of the Host (unequipped), at the start of each combat, the game automatically gave me a token copy of my Patchwork Automaton, the original having been equipped with a Basilisk Collar. Very unfair to opponent. Very flexible use of the phrase "equipped creature".

This happened to me with my opponent copying my creatures without Helm equipped to anything.

TheDrifter#45553 commented
had the same issue, glad to at least see I'm not crazy and that it is new to the most recent patch. The Helm of the Host was making copies of anything with an equipment card attached to it, even if Helm of the Host itself was not attached to a creature
