Despite the cards says: draw SPELLS until your hand is full, it can also draw minions. It happened twice today. (basically everytime, since I played only 3 games today) So annonying bug since I couldn’t draw my asteroids because of that and lost the games.
Asteroids are cast when drawn, so they draw another card themselves, not necessarily a spell. This isn’t a bug.

What cards, exactly, did Malygos draw?
for clarification if you have 3 cards in hand maligos will trigger to draw 7(if you have less then 7 spells in deck he will only draw what you have), however if one of the cards he draws is a cast when drawn( asteroid) then the cast when drawn(asteroid) card doesn’t have to draw more spells and you will end up with a full hand

I just only don’t understand then, if I play “Triangulate” and discover a spell then most of the times the asteroids can be choosed as well as spells. So are they spells or not?
You misunderstood what Skizzy said
Sure asteroids are spells
But they are cast when drawn, any cast when drawn card will draw an additional card when they are cast from being drawn. The card that the asteroid draws can be any type of card.
A simpler example than malygos :
If you play Cactus Cutter (battlecry : draw a spell), it can draw you an asteroid. When the asteroid is drawn, Cactus cutter has finished its battlecry. The asteroid casts itself, then draws an additional card. That new card will be the top card of your deck, regardless of what it is. It can be another asteroid, any other spell, or a minion, location, weapon or hero.
With Malygos, everytime you draw an asteroid, you will draw another card before the battlecry of Malygos makes you draw another spell specifically, which means that each time you draw an asteroid, you have the change to draw a card that is not a spell

Yes, of course they are spells.
They have the “casts when drawn” tag, so anytime an asteroid is drawn, it will deal damage and then draw another card to replace itself.
So if malygos draws an asteroid, it will deal damage and then draw another card to replace itself. The second draw is done by the asteroid itself, not by malygos, so it can be any card type, not limited to just spells.
