Does Primordial Hydra take priority over Abzan Beastmaster?

Asked by ShadowNinja0704 8 years ago

Here's a scenario: On my upkeep, my opponent has a 5/5 Scute Mob in play. I have a 3/3 Primordial Hydra and an Abzan Beastmaster in play. Do I get to draw the extra card since the hydra's +1/+1 counters double, or does Beastmaster's ability resolve first?

Because you control both triggered abilities, you choose the order in which they're placed onto the stack. Remember that they'll resolve in the opposite order; the last ability to be placed onto the stack will be the first to resolve.

You can arrange the abilities such that Primordial Hydra's ability resolves first. Then, when Abzan Beastmaster's ability resolves, it'll see your 6/6 hydra and allow you to draw a card.
