When does the ability trigger?

Asked by Bobby654 8 years ago

scenario: I had a Meglonoth with two +1 + 1 counters on it. my opponent came at me with a Dragon-Style Twins with one prowess trigger. I blocked with my Meglonoth. was I right to use his effect before the combat damage went through?

Yes, the trigger happens when you declare Meglonoth as a blocker. It is put on the stack when players receive priority in the declare blockers step. The trigger will have to resolve before moving to the combat damage step.
