Answer

Ruling: Yes, when an item resolves from the chain, the controller of the next item on the chain gains priority. If you draw a reaction card during resolution, you can play it before the next item resolves.

Sequence:

  • Both players pass consecutively, causing the last item on the chain to resolve
  • No additional passes are needed during resolution
  • Once an item resolves, the controller of the next item on the chain gains priority
  • The player with priority can play reactions (including newly drawn cards)
  • Players continue passing priority until both pass consecutively, then the next item resolves

Nuances:

  • You can play reaction spells both before and after triggered abilities resolve on the chain
  • The player who controls the most recent item on the chain has priority first
