When conquering Candlelit Sanctum at 7 points (triggering Match Point), does the card draw happen before or after Candlelit Sanctum's trigger resolves, and can you stack the deck from Candlelit before drawing the Match Point card?

Answer

Ruling: You draw the card for reaching Match Point first, then Candlelit Sanctum's trigger goes on the stack and resolves afterward. The Match Point draw is not a trigger.

Sequence:

  • Conquer Candlelit Sanctum at 7 points
  • Draw a card immediately for Match Point (not a trigger)
  • Candlelit Sanctum's trigger goes on the stack
  • Resolve Candlelit Sanctum (stack the deck)

Nuances:

  • The Match Point draw happens before you can use Candlelit Sanctum to stack your deck, so you cannot manipulate what you draw for Match Point
