Bug: Cyclonic Rift gets around ward
My opponent played Cyclonic Rift and paid the Overload cost to return all of my cards to my hand, but most of the cards had a ward cost that they could not have paid. Cyclonic Rift targets permanents, not me the player, so they should have to pay the ward cost for each of the permanents they want returned to my hand.

An overloaded Cyclonic Rift does not target anything. All instances of the word "target" are replaced with "each", that's what overload does. So the spell returns each nonland permanent not controlled by its caster to hand, no targeting involved.
