This just happened in ranked draft: I had a [[Blast Zone]] and a bunch of creatures with +1/+1 counters on the battlefield. I played [[Planewide Celebration]], selecting the proliferate mode four times. Since my opponent had a couple cards with cmc3 in play , I decided it would be a good idea to only put two counters on the Blast Zone. The prompt for Planewide Celebration asked me what I wanted to proliferate onto for each time I had selected the mode. For the first and second prompt I selected everything (the default option). For the third and fourth prompt I made sure to deselect the Blast Zone, so that it wouldn't receive further counters. To my surprise, the Blast Zone received the same amount of counters as all my other cards. There seems to be something wrong with how the card is coded.

Has anyone else encountered similar issues? I've submitted this as a bug, and I've noticed that this seems to be not the only issue with how the card is implemented. Apparently, the dialogue box for selecting multiple cards from the graveyard is also screwed up to some extend. Just a fair warning for anyone who happens to open the card in draft.

Yikes. I have an idea of what could be going wrong - I'll look at this tomorrow. #wotc_staff
