How does Satyr Firedancer interact with Crackling Doom
Asked by SwiftDeath 9 years ago
This is a two part question:
First: Crackling Doom does 2 damage to each opponent so does Satyr Firedancer trigger for each opponent or does it only trigger once?
Second: The Crackling Doom makes them sac a creature so does the Satyr Firedancer 's ability go on the stack after Crackling Doom resolves? The reason for this is if my opponent has 2 x/2's can I cast the Doom and kill both their creatures? In other words I cast Doom they take 2 damage and sac a creature so then I target the remaining creature with Firedancer's ability, or I cast Doom they take 2 damage and I target their creature so they sac the creature I targeted?

You cast Crackling Doom .
It resolves, dealing 2 damage to each opponent, and making them each sacrifice a creature. Each opponent which takes damage causes Satyr Firedancer 's ability to trigger, but nothing can go on the stack while a spell is in the middle of resolving, so those triggers wait. After Crackling Doom has finished resolving, the triggers go on the stack at which time you pick your targets for the damage.
So they have to sacrifice as part of the resolution of Crackling Doom before you announce which creatures are taking damage.
