If you draw a counter card (like Defy or Windwall) while a spell is resolving on the chain, can you use it to counter a card lower in the chain?

Answer

Ruling: Yes, you can counter a card lower in the chain. Each player has priority between chain items resolving, so if you draw cards with one chain item, you can play appropriately timed cards before the next chain item resolves.

Sequence:

  • A chain item resolves and you draw cards
  • Players receive priority before the next chain item resolves
  • You can play the counter card you drew (if appropriately timed) to counter a remaining card in the chain
