Odd interactions between teysa and deathrender
Asked by Monomanamaniac 4 years ago
So I have a commander deck that runs Teysa Karlov as the commander and I was looking into upgrades and i noticed a spicy card called Deathrender . Now deathrender is not the most broken of cards but it is amazing in this kinda deck because it allows you to get a creature from your hand for 2 mana. But the main question is, how would these cards interact? Would I get to put 2 creatures out of my hand?

That's what I was hoping for, wasn't sure how the equipping of deathrender would go so that actually clears that up a lot. That does make me curious if I could somehow get to choose which creature comes in first and which creature gets the deathrender, but there's only 1-2 interactions that it would matter

That's easy. You would choose which creature would enter first or end up getting the Deathrender by choosing them in that order when the triggers resolve, since the triggers resolve one at a time.
Say you have Relentless Rats and Rat Colony in hand. You get the two Deathrender triggers, and decide you want Rat Colony to be the creature to end up with Deathrender equipped. When the first trigger resolves, you would choose Relentless Rats , putting it from your hand to the battlefield and equipping Deathrender to it. Then when the second trigger resolves, you put Rat Colony on the battlefield, and Deathrender unequips from Relentless Rats and attaches to Rat Colony .

If you have Teysa Karlov on the battlefield, and Deathrender on the battlefield attached to a creature, and that creature dies, Deathrender will trigger twice, putting two instances of its triggered ability on the stack. As each one resolves, you will have the option to put a creature from your hand onto the battlefield and attach Deathrender to it. Simply put, yes, you will get to put two creatures onto the battlefield from your hand. They will not enter simultaneously though, but rather one after another as the two triggers resolve, and the second one to enter will cause Deathrender to be unattached from the first creature, and attached to the second.
