What happens if I use Vapor Snag While I have Willbreaker on the battlefield

Asked by FYREKNIGHT 9 years ago

I am making a u/w/r instant and sorcery deck and I'm wondering how it will turn out. Will the creature go to the player's hand or mine?

A card can never go to a hand, library, or graveyard other than that of its controller. You can't put your opponent's card into your hand. Also, Vapor Snag says "owner's hand" (as do other zone-change effects), so it's a non-issue.

The specific sequence of events here is that you'll gain control of the creature (Willbreaker's ability triggers during the casting process, so it is put on top of the stack afterward and resolves first), but it will be returned to its owner's hand shortly afterward when Vapor Snag resolves.
