Yarok + Primeval Bounty

Asked by Liszt 4 years ago

Let's assume I have Primeval Bounty in play and cast Yarok, the Desecrated. Does Primeval Bounty trigger twice?

No.

Yarok, the Desecrated must be on the battlefield for its copy effect to apply.

Primeval Bounty's first ability will trigger when you cast Yarok, but Yarok is still on the stack at this time (you cast it, but it hasn't resolved yet), therefore it's not on the battlefield for its copy effect to apply. You don't double the triggered ability.

Additionally, Primeval Bounty's first and second abilities both trigger off of spells being cast, not permanents entering the battlefield, so they are never doubled by Yarok, the Desecrated. Only the third ability, for lands entering the battlefield, is ever doubled.
