How does Icathian Rain work regarding targeting, specifically can you target the same unit multiple times (e.g., targeting a 3 might unit 3 times, or a 1 might recruit twice)?

Ruling: Icathian Rain creates 6 separate reflexive triggers that can each target the same unit or different units. You can target a unit multiple times even if it would receive lethal damage from earlier triggers (e.g., you can target a 1 might recruit twice with Icathian Rain).

Sequence:

• Icathian Rain is played and resolves, creating 6 reflexive triggers
• You pick targets for all 6 reflexive triggers (targets can be the same or different units)
• If any trigger targets an enemy unit with deflect, you must pay the deflect cost or that trigger fails to finalize
• After all targets are chosen, players can react
• The reflexive triggers resolve one at a time in reverse order (6th, then 5th, etc.), with each dealing 2 damage
• Players can react between each trigger resolution

Nuances:

• Reflexive triggers are not linked to each other
• You cannot retarget after initially choosing the 6 targets
• Nothing forces you to target a specific unit like Machine Evangel; you can choose to target other units instead
• Machine Evangel counters Icathian Rain not by forcing targeting, but by making the card ineffective when Viktor has few other units (since killing a 4+ might Evangel gives the opponent 3 new units)
