When Blind Fury reveals Nocturne, who has priority to banish and play their card first?
Ruling: The player who reveals Nocturne can choose to banish it immediately upon reveal, before the Blind Fury controller selects their card. However, Nocturne doesn't actually enter play until after Blind Fury fully resolves.
Sequence:
- Cards from Blind Fury are revealed. If a player reveals Nocturne, they can choose to banish it, which is added to the chain as a pending item
- Blind Fury finishes resolving. The controller banishes their chosen card and adds it to the chain as a pending item
- The other revealed cards are recycled
- Pending items enter the chain in the order they were added as pending
- Nocturne's cost is paid and it enters the chain, resolving immediately as a permanent
- The Blind Fury card enters the chain, additional costs may be paid, and it resolves
Nuances:
- The banish decision for Nocturne happens during reveal, but the actual play happens after Blind Fury resolves
- In a 1v1 situation, if the defending player reveals and plays Nocturne first, it can counter Blind Fury since Fury only works on enemies
