I believe it is because Battlecries activate before the minion is considered on the board. So, in this example, Deathwing's battlecry is activated, it kills your board but also dies before Mirror Entity can register a minion on the board.
Battlecries takes priority over secrets. That's why cards like Kezan Mystic can work. However once Deathwing's battlecry was over he was dead, there was no minion left for Mirror Entity to copy. That's why it looked like it did not work.
Hi all,
can you please explain to me, why Mirror Entity didn´t activate, when my opponent played Deathwing, Mad Aspect?
Full replay here, it´s on turn 11 I really don´t understand.
Thanks
This must be a bug.

Get what I'm trying to explain?
Not sure if I'm clear enough, sorry :/

The secret triggers AFTER the battle cry effect is completed. Hey, atleast it didn’t proc the secret and give you nothing!
