If I cast a {vexing devil} and my opponent takes the 4 damage, can I then cast {undying evil} to have my devil come back with a +1/+1 counter? Can my opponent then take another 4 damage to make me sack my devil again?
no you cannot you have to do it before they take the 4 damage
Nope.
(sorry Rass)
They don't chose to take the damage or not until the ability resolves. When it does resolve, {Sexy Devil} gets dumped in the bin before you get to respond.
If you wanted to use {Undying Evil}, you'd have to cast it before the Devil's ability resolves. But then your opponent wouldn't take the damage and you've spend two cards to get a vanilla 4/3.
RESOLVED
I thought it all went on the stack first in last out.
Devil enters battlefield
They choose to have you sac it
You respond instant undying on it.
I didn't think they could then change their mind. I mean that's how I read it.
making the choice is upon the resolution. making the choice does not go on the stack.
