Is there an interaction here?

Asked by Colten_Lee 9 years ago

I have a Soul Warden and Mentor of the Meek out, I cast Channel, it resolves. I then cast, we'll say Triplicate Spirits. Is there a way to make it so that I gain the life from Soul Warden from my creatures entering, and then pay the life right back for Mentor of the Meek to draw a card essentially for each creature that just entered??

Both Soul Warden's ability and Mentor of the Meek's ability will trigger for each creature token created by Triplicate Spirits. Because you control all the triggers, you determine the order in which they are placed onto the stack. If you stack the Soul Warden triggers above the Mentor of the Meek triggers, you'll gain life. You'll then be given the option of paying the optional cost during each Mentor of the Meek ability resolution. At that time, you may pay 1 life and add to your mana pool, per Channel's effect.

I just hope you're aware that there are far more broken things you could do with Channel.

Yes. You will control all of the triggers so you stack it so that the Soul Warden resolves first. Then you can pay the life to add to your mana pool either before you allow the Mentor of the Meek triggers to resolve, or as they are resolving to pay for the optional cost.

Quite aware, but not with many cards that I've already got.
