so say that you just played Omniscience and had it resolve. you have a Sunbird's Invocation and a Knowledge Pool in your hand. you play the Sunbird's Invocation and it resolves and finally you play knowledge pool and it resolves. What even happens.

Omniscience doesn't really change much about the rules interaction, but does make it easier to cast a lot more spells. Also as an aside, Knowledge Pool would trigger Sunbird's Invocation on cast, which would resolve before Knowledge Pool does.

If you cast a spell from your hand then it will trigger both Sunbird's Invocation and Knowledge Pool. As you control them both, you can choose which order to put them on the stack, but either way you get to reap the benefits of both. Both of these abilities trigger on cast and would resolve even if the original spell were to become countered or exiled be another source.

So let's say you cast a Possibility Storm from your hand (y'know, just for shits and giggles). If Knowledge Pool resolves first, it exiles the spell and causes you to cast another spell exiled under Knowledge Pool as past of its ability's resolution. Once that's all done, Sunbird's Invocation's ability will start resolving and will remember the converted mana cost of the original spell you cast from your hand even though it didn't resolve, then you can resolve its ability as normal.

My friend and I used to play around with a lot of Possibility Storm and Eye of the Storm interactions. Great stuff.
