When reacting to a card with a hidden card on the battlefield, do you automatically pass priority to your opponent or can you retain priority and play multiple reactions?

Ruling: You retain priority and can play any number of reactions you wish before passing priority back to your opponent.

Sequence:

  • You play a reaction
  • You retain priority and can play additional reactions
  • You pass priority when you choose to
  • Opponent can then respond

Nuances:

  • Even if the opponent has Defy, they must wait for you to pass priority before using it
  • Defy can target anything on the chain that it can legally target, not just the most recent spell
