Ranging Raptors triggers with Zacama, Primal Calamity

Asked by Ecmdrw5 6 years ago

Okay so I played a Zacama, Primal Calamity with a Forerunner of the Empire and Ranging Raptors on the table. Zacama enters, forerunner triggers, raptor triggers for a tapped land. If all these things happen at the same time does the land from raptor untap after being placed because of zacama?

You get to choose the order of the Zacama and Forerunner triggers, so yes, you can make this work.

When multiple triggered abilities are trying to go onto the stack at the same time, first the active player (the player whose turn it is) puts the ones they control onto the stack in the order of their choice, then the non-active player puts theirs onto the stack on top of those in the order of their choice. If there's more than 2 players, the process starts with the active player and goes around the table in turn order.

In your example you get to choose what order to put the Zacama and Forerunner triggers onto the stack. If you put the Forerunner trigger on top then it will trigger Ranging Raptors as it resolves, and the land from the Raptors' ability will be on the battlefield at the time Zacama's trigger finally resolves.
