Yorion and Soulherder EOT trigger stacking

Asked by Enral 5 years ago

The following are the context of the scenario:

  • Soulherder in play

  • I cast Yorion, Sky Nomad which blinks Felidar Guardian and Wall of Omens (that will come back at the beginning of my end step)

  • I declare that I'm going to my end step which will have both Soulherder and Yorion's EOT triggers on the stack

  • I put the order of the stack so that Yorion resolves first and Soulherder resolves last

Here is where the confusion lies. When Yorion's EOT trigger resolves, both Felidar and the Wall will return which will create additional ETB trigger. Can I stack it so that Soulherder will have a chance to flickering the wall (to get that draw) before Felidar flicker Yorion to blink the both felidar and the wall away?

Unfortunately, Felidar Guardian and Wall of Omens won't be legal targets for Soulherder.

At the beginning of your end step, the two cards in question will not have entered the battlefield yet. Delayed triggered abilities also use the stack, so they must resolve first. In this case, the delayed triggers for Felidar Guardian and Wall of Omens must resolve before they can enter the battlefield.

Since, targets are selected when putting an ability onto the stack, the two cards will not be on the battlefield and able to be selected as targets when Soulherder's ability is put to the stack.
