If I have three black creatures on the battlefield and one is abyssal gatekeeper and I sacrifice all three to cast demon of death's gate do I end up sacrificing my demon or will he live because abyssal will trigger and go on top of the stack when demon is on it?
Thank you for answering. That makes sense. I knew that about spells with targets, don't know why I didn't think about it being the same for abilities.
So just to be clear, in my scenario, I could sac a land and target Gitrog and in response to draw trigger sac a land and target Gitrog and repeat till all six lands are gone and have six safekeeper abilities on the stack. Correct? I assume after the top one resolves the rest just fizzle?
Quick question about a game I played last night with a friend. I had Sylvan Safekeeper, World Shaper and The Gitrog Monster on the board along with six lands. Opponent attacks, for simplicity's sake we'll just say with a vanilla 10/10. I want to block with Shaper and in response sack all of my lands to Safekeeper in order to trigger Gitrog and then when Shaper dies, get them all back. My question is do I have to have enough legal targets for Safekeeper to do that? Because once I give a creature shroud I obviously can't target it again.
My thought is that since sacking the land is a cost, there's nothing that prevents me from doing it even if the ability can't happen. Is this the correct assumption?
Is it possible to enchant Endless Wurm with Glistening Oil and then stack their upkeep triggers in such a way where the Wurm would sacrifice the Oil and avoid getting the -1/-1 counter?
