Teleportation Circle interaction with Solemn Recruit

Asked by Supersaulty 1 year ago

Using Teleportation Circle to blink Solemn Recruit. Does Solemn Recruit's revolt trigger after blinking it WITH Teleportation Circle?

Delphen7 says... Accepted answer #1

Revolt will be active, but Solemn Recruit's won't trigger

To build background real quick:

1) Revolt only triggers if a permanent has left the field.

2) At the beginning of each step and phase the game looks at all the abilities that could trigger at that time, and will try to put them on the stack at the same time (Where you then choose the order they resolve in).

In this case, when the game goes to put Teleportation Circle's trigger on the stack, if no permanents have left the field yet, Solemn Recruiter's revolt ability won't even trigger and go on the stack, even if a permanent leaves during the end step.

Additionally, even if Revolt is active by the time the end step rolls around, flickering Recruiter will cause it to not gain a +1/+1 counter as the returned Recruiter is considered different than the one that left.

That's where my thought process was, but had to be sure.
