Answer

Ruling: Flurry of Blades does not require paying recycle costs for Deflect because it does not target units.

Nuances:

  • Flurry of Blades programmatically selects units rather than having the controller choose targets
  • The phrase "deal 1 to" does not mean targeting - the spell blankets all units at battlefields without the controller making choices
  • Unlike targeted spells which cannot be played without valid targets, Flurry of Blades can be played even with no units at battlefields
