If I attack a battlefield and my opponent plays Hidden Blade, can they play another card in a row after I pass priority?
Ruling: Yes, both players must pass priority to move on. After Hidden Blade resolves and you pass, your opponent can play another card.
Sequence:
- Opponent plays Hidden Blade in response to your attack
- You pass priority
- Opponent can now play another card
- Both players must pass priority consecutively to move forward
Nuances:
- If the opponent passed priority to you first and you pass back, they cannot play a reaction to their own Hidden Blade at that point
- A player can play multiple reactions in a row to an existing chain before passing
- When reacting to an existing chain, you can play as many reactions as you want consecutively, then pass
- After a chain resolves completely, priority automatically passes to the other player, but you can play if they pass
