I have a Diregraf Colossus on the battlefield when I cast Sidisi, Undead Vizier. Can I exploit the 2/2 zombie Diregraf Colossus creates?

Asked by mox40 6 years ago

Unsure of whether this token would trigger before Sidisi, Undead Vizier reaches the battlefield (allowing exploit to occur). I would think it does because of the way Diregraf Colossus is phrased. Utilizing the word "cast" instead of it being a triggered ETB effect. Clarification of ruling and my general understanding greatly appreciated.

Because Diregraf Colossus triggers on cast you definitely get the zombie token before Sidisi, Undead Vizier resolves. If they both triggered on the creature entering rather than being cast you would get to stack the triggers in either order, so you could stack them such that you got the token before sacrificing a creature anyways.
