Answer

Ruling: When you conquer a location, you get the point (or draw a card if replacing the point) first, then the conquer triggers/battlefield effects happen afterward.

Sequence:

  • Conquer the location
  • Gain the point or draw the replacement card
  • Resolve conquer triggers/battlefield effects

Nuances:

  • This means a player at 7 points conquering Candlelit Sanctum would draw their card first before scrying from the battlefield effect
