So I got a Shimmering Tempest out of a Manacing Nimbus. This tempest then provided a Pimordial Glyph.

I played Electra Stormsurge, followed by Primordial Glyph. However, I was only allowed to discover once.

I was able to replicate this with the shaman spell Blazing Invocation (see Screenshot), so it is something about the Discover mechanic. I do not really see why it works that way. Any thoughts?

Weird, stupid design, too bad shaman is knows for its inconsistencies..

And I was looking forward to electra + haunting visions

The reason why is because Electra is casting the second spell.  Discover is not a targeted effect, nor a random one.  I dare say a Choose One spell would work similarly.

This is definitely a bug. Blizzard will likely fix this because there is a new discover spell coming out.

 This is not a problem with other cards. For example, when Yogg casts a discover spell, you just get a random card from the discover pool. This should work the same. He should have discovered a battelcry minion (from casting the spell) and the gotten a second random battlecry minion from Electra

 No, it's not.
Or when you overload, you will not do it twice, cause it's Electra that cast the second spell.
This is not true.

Electra make YOU to cast another spell.

So do you have an alternative explanation? Or would you consider this a bug then?

Electra does overload you... but you don't get any synergy (unbound elemental, omega mind and spellstone)

and I think same for zentimo

 And this is wrong, it's actually a bad design, an inconsistency.

I am just confused that it is not reported somewhere (or at least I did not find it). I thought first it had to do something with the spell beeing from a different class. But as I said, it also failed with Blazing Invocation.
