When conquering a battlefield at 7 points with Zaun Warren and an empty hand, can you choose the order of drawing from the conquer attempt and Zaun Warren's discard-then-draw effect?

Ruling: You cannot choose the order. Scoring the point (or drawing a card when at 7 points) happens as part of the conquer effect itself and does not use the chain. Zaun Warren's trigger only goes on the chain after the conquer is complete.

Sequence:

  • You conquer the battlefield and immediately draw a card (instead of scoring point 8) as part of the conquer effect
  • Zaun Warren's conquer trigger then goes on the chain
  • When Zaun Warren's trigger resolves, you discard then draw

Nuances:

  • The scoring/card draw is part of the conquer effect itself, not a separate triggered ability
  • Zaun Warren only triggers after the conquer is done, so it cannot be stacked before the conquer's built-in effects
