Can you react to a Sprite token dying at the start of your turn (due to Temporary) by playing a hidden Blastcone Fae before it dies?

Answer

Ruling: Yes, you can react to the Sprite token dying by playing the Blastcone Fae from the facedown zone. The Fae will resolve before the token dies, allowing you to get the hold point.

Sequence:

  • At the start of your beginning phase, the Temporary keyword triggers and goes onto the chain
  • You can react to this trigger by playing Blastcone Fae from the facedown zone
  • Blastcone Fae resolves first
  • Then the Sprite token dies

Nuances:

  • It is the Temporary effect (not the unit dying itself) that goes on the chain and creates the reaction window
  • A unit dying does not automatically go on the chain; it's the Temporary keyword trigger that allows the reaction
