Title: Acidic Slime EBF
Post by: Chipper89 on September 27, 2013, 01:04:20 PM
I have a timing/ruling question.
  I have out {soul's attendant} and {Sanguin Bond} so whenever a creature enters the battlefield my opponent loses a life and I gain.
  My opponent dropped {acidic slime}. Does my {soul's attendant} trigger the {sanguin bond} before the slime kills the Enchantment?
  (DOES MY OPPONENT LOSE A LIFE?)

yes. And you could combine that blood card with {exquisite blood} or similar effects for an insta kill

If he played it on his turn, yes.

Two triggers (Attendant's and Slime's) are triggering simultaneously. They go on the stack in active player, inactive player order.

So if he played the Slime on his turn, the Slime's trigger will go on the stack targeting Sanguine Bond. Then the Attendant's life gain trigger goes on the stack. The Attendant's will resolve first, and Sanguine Bond will trigger, going on the stack on top of the Slime's trigger, which still hasn't resolved.

Then Bond's trigger will resolve, making your opponent lose 1 life. Then the Slime's will resolve, destroying the Bond.
