Can you use Gust on an opponent's Tideturner after its swap ability resolves to move it to the battlefield?
Ruling: No, you cannot use Gust after Tideturner's triggered ability resolves. Once the ability resolves and the chain is empty, there is no window to play reaction spells.
Sequence:
- Tideturner is played and its triggered ability goes on the chain
- The triggered ability is the only item on the chain
- When it resolves, the units swap positions
- The chain becomes empty
- Since the chain is empty, you stop and do not get another window to play reactions
Nuances:
- Rule 543.4 only applies when there are still items remaining on the chain after something resolves, determining whose priority comes first before the next item resolves
- Rule 544 is relevant here: when the chain is empty after resolving, you stop repeating the priority windows
