Q: Reordering Static Effects with Dependencies on a Changing Board State

CALEB FAll of the discussion about Dryad of the Ilysian Grove's Layer 4 confusion and other discussions about continuous effects got me thinking about an unintuitive situation that can result from dependencies and seemingly unrelated changes to the board state. Here is the scenario: Player A controls...

genuinely surprised me
@murgatroid99 that's some good answering! Mmmhmmm
Can we answer questions on tournaments here? Or is there a dedicated SE for that?
 
Sure! We've got the tag for it and plenty of history on it. See also our MTG rule enforcement level tags: https://boardgames.stackexchange.com/search?q=[mtg-*-rel]

@doppelgreener I mean things like "How did Mengucci declare his deck wrong, if it is loaded into Arena?" not "Can I get a game loss for declaring the wrong cards in a deck?"
 
Not sure if you can ask that on the site itself, but feel free to ask here!
 
@CollinB I'm not super invested, but I am curious
would be nice to have an esports SE
 
I don't think I personally will be able to answer your question, but I can tag people to do so (that means you @doppelgreener @murgatroid99 )

i know squat about tournaments lol
@AncientSwordRage i think that would be on-topic here. i mean, where else would you ask about mtg tournaments?
we're already definitely not "the rules of the game and nothing else stack exchange" because we handle questions about story, related apps for playing the game, etc
 
@doppelgreener you raise an excellent point
 
plus asking about notable things that happened at tournaments isn't merely trivia, it helps us understand the tournament landscape. when there's a mistake or problem, understanding how it happened helps us avoid the same situation ourselves.
i mean at some point it definitely is trivia unrelated to the game: "what was this funny hat this player wore in the grand finals and where can i buy it?" is definitely not an MTG question
but "how did this player declare their deck wrong if it was loaded into Arena?" is very firmly inside MTG territory
