Panharmonicon/ Fab Module

Asked by childse67 7 years ago

If I have a Panharmonicon and a Fabrication Module on the field, and cast a "energy-when-enters" card like Aethertorch Renegade, does the Fabrication Module trigger 4 times (2 times from the Aethertorch/Panharmonicon combo and 2 times from the Panharmonicon/Module combo)? Basically, does Panharmonicon affect Fabrication Module?

Also, partially related, would this trigger an infinite loop with an Animation Module and Decoction Module also on the field?

I should rather say "a loop as long as you have the mana pool for it" than infinite loop.

Panharmonicon doesn't interact with Fabrication Module. Fabrication module's ability is triggered by you gaining energy, not by anything entering the battlefield. In your example, Aethertorch Renegade enters the battlefield and causes its own ability to trigger. Panharmonicon causes this ability to trigger twice instead. When each of those triggers resolves, you'll get some energy and Fabrication Module will trigger, but Panharmonicon won't affect the Module.

Panharmonicon does affect Decoction Module, because it triggers whenever a creature enters the battlefield.

Together, Animation Module, Decoction Module, and Fabrication Module already form a loop that you can keep running as long as you have mana available to pay. They don't need any help from Panharmonicon.

Ok thank you. I was thinking the Module was affected by Panharmonicon because a creature enters and makes energy, but I see the module isn't a "when enters" effect.
