Xyrella won't trigger Velen's Deathrattle. Replay

Bug Report
1

If you play any Battlecry Draenei and then Velen at any time during the game, Velen will trigger that Draenei’s battlecry.

However, when you play hero card Xyrella to Trigger Velen, Velen animation will show all the battlecry’s being triggered, but it never goes off (for example, Flame Juggler or any other Battlecry Draenei)

I should have won this game had the Flame Juggler’s battlecry went off

The interaction works during the game and Velen makes the Battlecry from Flame Juggler hit enemy face, but doesn’t work when triggered later.

In fact, Xyrella doesn’t trigger any of the Battlecries of Draenei when triggering Velen.

EDIT: Playing Warlock’s Shallow Grave on Velen creates a Disconnect when the spell kills Velen. There is absolutely something going on that’s not working as intended when a card attempts to trigger Velen’s deathrattle and resolve.

EDIT 2: Triggering Velen’s Deathrattle with Xyrella will trigger the Deathrattles of minions, but not their Battlecries via Velen.

Another example: It will trigger Overzealous Healer and will heal the opponent 6. It will not trigger Saronite Chain Gang or Auchenai Phantasm but the animation will appear as if it does. This is easily seen with the Overzealous Healer’s Deathrattle going off after the animation of Auchenai Phantasm Battlecry is triggered. The enemy hero is healed. Yet when Velen does die, the enemy hero is damaged.

That’s odd. Velen should only trigger battlecries when he dies, not when he is played…

He only triggers the battlecries when he dies.

But when you trigger Velen’s deathrattle via something else other than Velen, the deathrattles don’t trigger. In this case, Xyrella doesn’t trigger Velen’s Deathrattle.

The animation plays as if it triggers, but it never actually triggers.

is this something you found after the last patch been a while but on release xyrela was one of te decks i played it and i was able to trigger battlecries

i found an issue later with another card DH return policy
that card wont trigger any "next draenei " effect and before the last patch draenei with battlecry+deathrattle didnt trigger either

i havent played xyrela in a while do you know if this issue happpens with it too

since both are deathrattle trigger is posible both cards have the same bug

This is just from today so it’s a current bug.

Velen triggers them when he dies. Xyrella triggering Velen doesn’t.

I have to try the Warlock spell that triggers and kills and see if that works. Update coming.
