Draven, Audacious

Draven, Audacious

429.1.a.1.b. When a unit with a Deathknell or other ability that triggers on its own death is to be put in the Trash due to a Kill Instruction, it first has any such ability added to the chain as a Pending Item. Note the unit's location, attributes, and other relevant information to process those abilities when finalized before completing this Kill Instruction. Example: Draven, Audacious reads in part "When I die in combat, choose an opponent. They gain 1 point." The ability triggers when Draven himself dies, so it will go on the chain first when a kill instruction is performed on Draven, before he is put in the trash.

808.1.d.1. If the Permanent with the effect is not sent to the Trash, for example because its "killed" event was replaced with a recall, the triggered ability will be removed from the chain. Example: Draven, Audacious is killed in combat. Draven reads in part "When I die in combat, choose an opponent. They gain 1 point." Draven's controller has a Zhonya's Hourglass in base. Draven's death is replaced by him being healed, recalled, and exhausted. Draven's triggered ability will be removed from the chain.
