T.5 - Step 2: Waiting for Resolution


Return to Rules Index

T.5.1- At the beginning of this step, any abilities which trigger (see Rule A.4) on a spell or ability being "played", "activated", "successfully played" or "successfully activated" are put on the stack along with abilities that triggered during the announcement itself, then the player who just played the previous spell or ability receives priority to play spells and abilities. Once both players pass while the stack has no spells or abilities on top of this one, continue to the next step. [CompRules 1999/04/23] See Rule T.2 for improved detail on the stack.

T.5.2- Mana abilities (triggered or activated) skip this step . Abilities triggered on a mana ability becoming "played", "activated", "successfully played", or "successfully activated" (and which are not mana abilities themselves) wait until after its resolution before going on the stack. [CompRules 1999/04/23]

T.5.Ruling.1- Adding a spell or ability to the stack at this time is called "responding to" this spell or ability. [D'Angelo 1999/05/01]
