Aria of flame question

Asked by Master_hwan1 4 years ago

Does Aria of Flame deal its dmg when a proliferate ability is activated? Or what if a sorcery causes you to proliferate would Aria trigger twice?

Aria of Flame

Aria only triggers when you cast an instant or sorcery spell, not whenever a verse counter is put on it.

If you cast a sorcery that had proliferate as part of its effect, aria would trigger in response to the spell, resolve before it, and deal damage equal to its verse counters.

However, proliferate still helps by increasing the number of verse counters before the next time you cast an instant or sorcery.

Other than that, as Raging_Squiggle said, it triggers off of the casting of an instant/sorcery, and thus would go on the stack before the aforementioned spell and resolve first, so if the instant/sorcery had proliferate, it would proliferate the verse counters after Aria of Flame had already triggered and resolved.
