When an opponent at 7 points conquers Candlelit Sanctum (which draws cards instead of scoring), does the Sanctum's trigger happen before or after the draw from conquering?

Answer

Ruling: You draw first (as drawing has replaced the score part of conquering), then Candlelit Sanctum triggers after the conquer is complete.

Sequence:

  • Draw cards (replacement effect for scoring)
  • Candlelit Sanctum triggers after conquer

Nuances:

  • If multiple "when I conquer" triggers exist (like Kai'Sa's draw effect and Candlelit Sanctum), they all trigger at the same time and you can choose the order they resolve
  • The draw from conquering happens first because it replaces the scoring, not because it's a conquer trigger
