Lightning Bolt vs scenario

Asked by Kizzel 7 years ago

Lets pretend I have a Rattlechains on the battlefield and my opponent plays a Lightning Bolt. Could I flash in Mausoleum Wanderer and sacrifice him to counter that bolt and save my creature?

Yes, that's fine. The spell or ability currently on top of the stack will only resolve when all players decide to pass instead of making another response. You can respond to Lightning Bolt by casting Mausoleum Wanderer. After the Wanderer resolves, you can respond again by activating its last ability instead of passing.

You can sacrifice him to try to counter the Lightning Bolt but your opponet has the option to pay the .
