Legend rule and stacking effects

Asked by Quickspell 6 months ago

In my Hidetsugu and Kairi combo deck that uses sac-outlets and reanimation spells like Zombify to create a finite but hopefully fatal loop, I want to use Renegade Doppelganger as sort of blue sac-outlet.

Can somebody please confirm if this works:

1. Renegade Doppelganger is on the battlefield.
2. Hidetsugu and Kairi enters the battlefield.
3. The legend rules applies before H&K‘s ETB goes on the stack. I chose to send the original H&K to the graveyard. This triggers it’s dying-ability.
4. Since now the stack is open and the ETB has not yet been placed, I can choose to put the death trigger first and the ETB on top. This would allow me to brainstorm for recursion spells and reanimate H&K, going back to step 1.

Oops, it seems I have asked this question already here.

My bad.
