Do the Beginning Step and Scoring Step happen at the same time, and would triggers from both steps (like Jinx-Loose Cannon and Grove of the God-Willow) go on the same chain?

Answer

Ruling: The Beginning Step and Scoring Step happen in order, not at the same time. Effects from these steps go on different chains since they happen separately.

Sequence:

  • Beginning Step occurs first and its chain resolves
  • Scoring Step occurs second (any hold effects happen after the Begin Step chain has resolved)

Nuances:

  • This timing is why temporary units can't hold (they expire before the Scoring Step)

Does this answer look correct?
