Hexmage plus Dark Depths

Never mind. {Parallel Lives} is a replacement effect and can't be responded to.

Hmm, can I put the token on stack the sac it to the altar instead of the legendary rule?

They are sacrificed as a state-based action, if I recall correctly. If you put the Parallel Lives triggers on the stack, then respond to each individual token entering the battlefield by sacrificing it, it will work.

You can't sac a creature on the BF, and the legendary rule is a state based action. Sacing a creature requires the stack, so a player must have priority to sac. Therefor, you can't sac a creature before the legendary rule triggers.

One note on my comment: I'm aware that Sacing is either a cost or a consequence of a spell or ability that gets put on the stack, but I stand by my timing limitations.

That's exactly what I meant...

[griffin131]

You said it could work. Since all the tokens enter the battlefield at the same time you can't respond to just one of them, and then the state based sac occurs.

So I can look at  {Vampire Hexmage},  {Thespian's Stage},  {Hex Parasite} and I also found  {Ferropede} (although a little slower) i think I wanna do a Junk EDH with land searches. Found quite a few cards that allow land searching and not just basic land search. Inputs always welcome.

So replace the  {Altar Of Dementia} with a  {Warstorm Surge} and the {parallel lives} bit would work a treat... Have a {grave pact} in play for more fun
Or just toss a {mirror gallery} down and ignore the legends rule...

[Anoobass]

Mirror gallery only works on the old legend rule lol, if the legend rule changes it can't work for the new one

[Mattao19]

Really? How so? It's still called the "legend rule" {U}{R} not?

[Anoobass]

Was just a joke.

[Mattao19]

Oh lol my bad

[Anoobass]

Np, there was no way you would be able to tell.  But if my friend ever uses mirror gallery that's what in saying.

Nothing is worse with this combo than {grim discovery}
Also, dredge mechanics work nice if you've got a discovery in your hand
