Answer

Ruling: The current showdown always resolves first before any newly triggered showdowns begin.

Sequence:

  • First showdown begins when Player A moves to Battlefield 1
  • During first showdown, Player B uses Ride the Wind to move to Battlefield 2
  • Second showdown is marked as pending
  • First showdown completes
  • Second showdown then begins and resolves

Nuances:

  • A showdown begins when control of a battlefield is contested and the turn is in a neutral open state
  • The rules may need clarification regarding pending non-combat showdowns for this circumstance
