The Poison spell card doesn't target, it automatically effects the opponent, just like how Miracle automatically effects you. Bolts/Lances are reflected because you need to click a target after casting them.
with that logic rain of fires should hit immaterial creatures... right?

no consistency in this game at all on wording. big problem.

Emerald shield says "spells are reflected back to your opponent"--->"poison"  is not getting reflected.(maybe the crature ability poison is normal,as it is ability,not spell,but the spell gets through too...

Yeah,so we have a little paradoxon.The poison shouldn't get through emerald shield or rain of fire should damage untargettable creatures.

First time i made the rain of fire mistake either. XD

Lol, you're right. Coming from Magic, I assumed that Rain of Fire, being a global effect, would effect creatures that can't be targeted, however, that is not the case in Elements...so my first Rain of Fire against a mass of Immortals in PvP was a wasted effort. =/

Would that mean that if you had a reflective shield and you use Miracle on yourself, it would bounce to the opponent?

This might not be totally PC, but Zanz is Italian and, presumably, not a native English speaker.  It'd be nice if some of this stuff could get reviewed by someone with a little more English acumen.  I definitely notice this in language like the last quest, "But if you have plenty of money it does not matter, right?"  or "Do not even think this will be anywhere close to easy."  I thought this was just a quirk but the guy is definitely from Italy.

Not entirely...the wording on miracle says that your life becomes 100-1 (or max-1 for the upped version) whereas Rain of Fire says it hits all creatures...
And likewise, the wording on Poison is that "the opponent gets poisoned for 2 (or 3, if upgraded)."
