When is a dungeon considered completed?

Asked by Chaospyke 2 years ago

If I have Hama Pashar, Ruin Seeker in play with Sefris of the Hidden Ways I get two triggers of the last room in a dungeon. When does Sefris's ability trigger. How does this interact if I complete The Undercity, which has a last room that states:"Reveal the top ten cards of your library. Put a creature card from among them on to the battlefield with 3 +1/+1 counters on it. It gains hexproof until your next turn. Then shuffle." and put a creature on to the battlefield that ventures?

Generally dungeons are completed as a state-based action after their last ability resolves. So Sefris of the Hidden Ways would trigger after the second of the final room abilities resolve. You did however hit on the one case where a dungeon is completed while there is still a room ability from it on the stack. If you would venture into the dungeon while your marker is on the last room, you complete that dungeon and then pick a dungeon and put your marker on the top most room.

309.5b If a player ventures into the dungeon while they own a dungeon card in the command zone and their venture marker is on that dungeon card’s bottommost room, they remove that dungeon card from the game. They then choose a dungeon card they own from outside the game and put it into the command zone. They put their venture marker on the topmost room.

309.6. If a player’s venture marker is on the bottommost room of a dungeon card, and that dungeon card isn’t the source of a room ability that has triggered but not yet left the stack, the dungeon card’s owner removes it from the game. (This is a state-based action. See rule 704.)

309.7. A player completes a dungeon as that dungeon card is removed from the game.
