So I made a deck featuring {Wild Beastmaster}, and came upon a circumstance that I'm not 100% sure on how it resolves.
Say I have 2 {Wild Beastmaster}s in play. If they both attack, obviously both if their triggers are added on the stack in the order of my choosing.
But at what point X determined?
Does it check power to determine X right then when adding to the stack (like with spells), making both triggers a "X=1,"
or on resolution, giving Beastmaster B's trigger a boost (X=2) after its power has been boosted by the now-resolved trigger of Beastmaster A (X=1)?
X = power when ability resolves.
Edit: Was my initial guess but now you made me unsure too!
Pulled this from "The gatherer" discussion:
They're funny if you attack with multiples of them. If you attack with four of them, they will start as lousy 1/1 dorks, and after their abilities finished resolving, they'll be 15/15, 14/14, 12/12 and 8/8.

According to the rulings, X is determined when the ability resolves, and the beastmaster's last known power is used. That being said, I believe that means the first one would give +1/+1, and the second one would give +2/+2.
RESOLVED
Awesome, that is what I was hoping for.
+1 to both you guys for helping me figure this one out when there are no rulings for the card yet in the app here ;) thanks!
