Possibility Storm and Storm mechanic

Asked by LordNazahn 6 years ago

Ok, so this is a question to make sure I understand something correctly. I want to see about messing around with abusing it in a storm/spell slinging EDH deck.

So: I have Possibility Storm on the field, and let us say that storm count is 3. I cast Mind's Desire, so I have the original that I cast from hand and then 3 copies on the stack. Now Possibility Storm triggers and storm count raises to 4, I resolve Possibility storm and find Volcanic Awakening from it. Since strom doesn't care where it is cast from, that triggers and I have the original Volcanic Awakening plus 4 copies of it?

So in the end I blow up 5 lands and then Mind's Desire for 3? Am I correct, if not where is my idea wrong and why?

You are correct, but I would like to point out one small detail.

Both Storm and Possibility Storm trigger at the same time when you cast a spell. When you cast Mind's Desire from your hand, you can choose which order to put the triggered abilities on the stack. You could put the 3 copies of Mind's Desire above or below the Possibility Storm. That is, you would have the option to have the 3 copies resolve before Possibility Storm grabs Mind's Desire.
