Mindcrank and Bloodchief Ascension Interaction

Asked by TangoWithTojo 4 years ago

My question is what would happen if lets say an opponent took 4 damage at the start of a turn, triggering Mindcrank and thus triggering Bloodchief Ascension in the process. Would that create 4 separate triggers for Bloodchief Ascension creating an infinite loop? Or do the 4 cards milled count as just one trigger on Bloodchief Ascension , triggering Mindcrank again but adding no further effect on Bloodchief Ascension ?

Either way would be an infinite loop, but milling 4 to Mindcrank would create 4 Bloodchief Ascension triggers. (I am assuming we are talking about the triggers causing lifeloss here, not the trigger that adds counters.)

Yea I realized that after looking at the rules again. I misread it originally and when it says Bloodchief Ascension can only trigger once per turn I thought it meant its 2nd ability. I was wrong and jfc this combo is game ending.
