Thanks for all the O-ring convo. I was playing that game out on Cockatrice. I moved the O-ring to the stack. Said, k? he said k, and I moved the o-ring to play. So now o-ring has resolved and the targeting goes on the stack. He then taps SFM and drops in Batterskull. So I took it. Seemed like more a timing mistake on his part. I even asked him if he wanted to take it back . We played on. He still won 2-1.

You would not be able to take the Batterskull. You need to choose targets when the ability goes on the stack. Batterskull isn't in play yet so it not a legal target. Targets are chosen on announcement not resolution.

Does this mean that if Blood Moon is in play, then Valakuut comes down, (say off the usual Scapeshift) that Valakuut still triggers?

It immediately changes a non-basic land entering play into a Mountain, and it does so before abilities that trigger on the original entering play trigger. [D'Angelo 1999/08/01]

Sacred Foundry gets put onto the battlefield. Does the pay 2 life or tap it clause do anything?

Is Darksteel Citadel still an artifact? It is not indestructible, correct?

Flagstones of Trokair in play and another enters. Still legendary right? Both still die right? Since it has, "When Flagstones of Trokair is put into a graveyard from the battlefield", each one still searches for a plains, right?

---

Correct on Darksteel Citadel. Flagstones is still legendary, sure. But it doesnt have that ability anymore. So no plains for you. I think i know how the shocklands work, but im not actually sure. Anyone else?

Yes, it does. Cards with "as this ETBs" abilities aren't on the battlefield when you make any choices associated with the ability. If you do not pay 2 life, your non-basic mountain will ETB tapped.

"603.6e. Some permanents have text that reads “[This permanent] enters the battlefield with . . . ,” “As [this permanent] enters the battlefield . . . ,” “[This permanent] enters the battlefield as . . . ,” or “[This permanent] enters the battlefield tapped.” Such text is a static ability—not a triggered ability—whose effect occurs as part of the event that puts the permanent onto the battlefield."

Rules dont take effect till January. Still have to remind him.

Also, at FNM, its still 'casual' REL, so you still have to remind him anyway. Changes only apply to Competitive (PTQs/GP day1) and Professional (GP day2, PT) REL.
