When playing Stacked Deck in response to a chain, do you get to draw and use the drawn card in the same chain?
Ruling: Stacked Deck is an Action, so it cannot be played during a chain resolution. However, if you use a Reaction speed draw spell (like Consult the Past), you can draw and play the drawn card in the same chain if it's Reaction speed.
Sequence:
- After you put a spell or ability on the chain, you get priority and can play another Reaction or pass
- If you pass, your opponent gets priority and can play something or pass
- When both players pass in sequence without doing anything, the top item on the chain resolves (not the whole chain)
- Then the controller of the next top item gets priority and the process repeats
- Things can be added to the chain at any point during this process
Nuances:
- Chains in Riftbound work like the Magic stack, not like Yu-Gi-Oh! chains
- The chain resolves one item at a time from top to bottom, with priority passing after each resolution
- Effects don't resolve immediately when played; they wait until priority is passed twice and everything above them has resolved
