Metallurgic Summonings & Hive Mind

Asked by TheGodofNight 5 years ago

I was playing a game of EDH with some friends, and I had both Metallurgic Summonings and Hive Mind on the field. I cast Dark Petition. At what point do I get the token from Metallurgic Summonings? Do I get it before the Hive Mind's trigger or after each opponent gets their copy of Dark Petition, but before my copy? I was under the impression that it stacked up like this: Cast Dark Petition, Hive Mind triggers, Metallurgic Summonings token trigger. So I thought it was I get the token, then my opponent's get their copy of the spell, and then I get my copy of the spell. My opponents disputed this saying it was spell, token trigger, hive mind trigger. Which is the correct order? Thanks in advance for the help.

Both cards trigger at the same time, when you cast an instant or sorcery. As the controller of both cards that trigger, you control both of the triggers, so you choose which order they stack in.

If you want, you can stack them such that the Hive Mind's trigger will resolve first, giving everyone else their spell copies (on top of the Metallurgic Summonings trigger). Or you can stack so Metallurgic Summonings resolves first and you get your token before everyone gets their spell copies.

So it's either one, depending on how you choose to stack the triggers.
