Questions about Dargo, the Shipwrecker's Rampage.

Asked by BruhYouFarted 1 year ago

The additional cost to playing Dargo, the Shipwrecker sorta perplexes me. Let's say I cast Mogg War Marshal, which enters alongside a 1/1 token. Later that turn, could I sacrifice the War Marshal, the 1/1 token from the etb trigger, and THEN the 1/1 token from the War Marshal's ltb trigger to reduce Dargo's cost to R?

Additional costs are paid during the casting of a spell and no player has priority while a spell is being cast. Triggered abilities can trigger while you are casting a spell, but they wait to go on the stack until a player would receive priority and then they must resolve.

This means that if you are sacrificing the Mogg War Marshal as an additional cost to cast Dargo, the Shipwrecker you will not have the LTB token to sacrifice while casting him. If you use something else, such as Phyrexian Tower, to sacrifice Mogg War Marshal and are counting on the second part of the ability to reduce the cost then yes you will be able to do as you decribed.
