Answer
No, hiding a card does not trigger Legion.
According to the official rulings and the Comprehensive Rules:
- Hiding is not Playing: Rule 737.1.c.1 states that "Hide is not a subset of Play." Because Legion specifically requires you to have "played another Main Deck card" (Rule 738.1.c.1), the act of placing a card face-down does not satisfy the condition.
- No Chain: Rule 737.1.c.2 notes that "Hiding a card does not open a chain," further distinguishing it from the act of playing a card.
- Playing from Hidden: While the act of hiding the card doesn't trigger Legion, playing that card from its face-down state on a subsequent turn does count as playing a card and will trigger Legion effects for other cards played afterward that turn.
Summary:
- Hiding a card: Does not trigger Legion.
- Playing a card from Hidden: Does trigger Legion.
