Chandra Hope's Beacon duplication not working correctly
Hello Support. When playing with Chandra Hope's Beacon in Brawl, there is a bug regarding the replication of certain spells.
I encountered this with Fight with Fire (kicked) and Crackle with Power.
In both cases, you choose the targets for the first spell; however, for the second (copied) spell, the targets cannot be changed.
It seems that Arena is having some trouble handling this.
Furthermore, with Fight with Fire (kicked)—in addition to not being able to select new targets, the distribution of damage points is also bugged; it considers the previous distribution and does not allow more points to be distributed.
How to reproduce:
Cast figh with fire(kicked) or crackle with power with chandra in the battlefield. You need to have different targets, like a creature and opponent or planeswalker and opponent. I did not test with two creatures ow creature and planeswalker. In fight with fire, I was targeting creature and oponent. Crackle with power I was targeting planeswalker and oponent. In both cases, I choose two targets.
Platform: PC - Windows 10 - Steam.

In both cases you are only allowed to change the targets, not the number of targets. So if you targeted 3 creatures with the original, the copy MUST also have 3 targets. Furthermore, distribution among targets is chosen when the spell/ability is put on the stack, is locked in at that point, and becomes a copiable value of the spell/ability. In short, the rules do not allow to change the distribution for the copy, neither does Chandra. So number of targets and distribution must remain the same.
As a sidenote, you can refuse to change a target, even if that target would be illegal by the time the copy is created.
