card costs, triggered abilities & the stack

Asked by Idoith 5 years ago

Slimefoot, the Stowaway is on the field. i sac 3 saprolings to cast Torgaar, Famine Incarnate. does target players life change, then opponent takes three damage? or does the damage happen, then player's life change?

The 3 damage from Slimefoot happens first. Slimefoot's ability triggers as you're paying the costs for casting Torgaar. This happens while Torgaar is still a spell on the stack. Torgaar's last ability doesn't trigger until the spell resolves and Torgaar enters the battlefield.
