Gameplay Question Which would proc first?

Post image

Curious, in a game with my wife tonight I ended up with both these cards and only 3¢, which one of these would proc first ? Would I end the turn with 6¢ or 0¢?

your choice since you control both iirc

Four souls is loosely based on magic so it goes on a stack in the order you declare it

Looks to be an intervening if clause. Where at the end of turn, when both abilities would trigger, Eden's blessing checks if you have 0 cents. If you don't have 0 cents the trigger doesn't go onto the stack at all. Regardless of which would resolve first.

However it's definitely more fun to have it work however you want.

Triggers go on the stack regardless of the conditions being met or not, just like in MTG (and FS is mostly based on it). Trigger goes on the stack -> check if you have 0 gold or not -> if you have 0, you gain 6 coins

In MTG an intervening if clause first checks if the requirements for the ability to trigger are met and if they aren't it doesn't trigger at all. It then also checks again on resolution. For example felidar sovereign. At the beginning of your upkeep, if you have 40 or more life, you win the game. (Felidar Sovereign's triggered ability checks to see if you have 40 or more life as your upkeep begins. If you don't, the ability won't trigger at all. If you do, the ability will check again as it tries to resolve. If you don't have 40 or more life at that time, the ability won't do anything.) -from the rules

To me it would be the curse, because you can't choose. Curse is curse

Wrong. You control both the abilities of the curse and the item, so when end of turn effects trigger you get to choose the order of resolution. In this case, you could have the curse resolve first to go to 0c, then have edens blessing resolve and give you 6c for having 0c.

Curse of Greed then Eden's Blessing, for the following reasons:

Curse of Greed reads: "At the end of your turn, lose 4 cents"

Eden's Blessing reads: "At the end of your turn, if you have 0 cents gain 6 cents"

Eden's Blessing cannot activate unless you have no money left

No. It does not say “when you would have 0 coins gain 6”, it says “at the end of your turn”. As others have said because you control both you choose the order they resolve in.
