Devouring Xenagos

[Redrighthand]

So in a game I -7 {Xenagos the Reveler} and got 5 creatures, one if which had devour. Can I devour the other creatures that ETB with him or not. We voted not at the time but I just wanted confirmation.

Sorry, Taysby, check your wording.  Devour is actually a replacement effect, since it's 'AS this creature enters'.  Because all the creatures are entering at the same time, none of them are on the battlefield when you choose what to devour.

Thanks guys and gals that's the logic that we came to as well it's nice to have the backup.
