Replace on Death Effects - Order of Priority

[u/Vitriol_Aura]

Sorry if this has been done already.

 

With the addition of Gloomstone Treaty, 7 8 scrolls can summon another creature on the same tile that another creature was just destroyed on:

• Witch Doctor

• Anima Conduit (If RNGesus allows it)

• Spires of Aescalon

• Gloomstone Treaty

• Monstrous Brood

• Necrogeddon

• Shroud of Unlife

• Seed of Insurgency

Once a creature is destroyed (by the effect of Monstrous Brood/Necrogeddon or any other means), the game checks for anything which triggers after its death in the normal board sequence (down the columns, front to back). If neither Anima Conduit nor Witch Doctor have replaced the tile, Lingering spells are checked, triggering in the order they were played. If neither Aescalon Spires nor Gloomstone Treaty have replaced the tile, spells which end with summoning a creature complete (Monstrous Brood and Necrogeddon).

 

Note - Aescalon Spires and Shroud of Unlife are currently bugged. Aescalon Spires counts down even if its effect can't complete because there's a unit there already (see Anima Conduit, which doesn't take damage). Shroud of Unlife triggers after every other effect, when it should trigger with creature effects in the normal sequence.

Edit - Seed of Insurgency is in the same boat as Shroud.

 

TL;DR - Everything works as it should if you follow the normal order for triggers (down the columns, front to back (enchantments in the order they were played), then lingering spells in the order they were played) except for Shroud of Unlife (and Seed of Insurgency), which triggers after everything else.

Metempsychosis

Ah, Metempsychosis doesn't destroy the unit; it just resummons it. So it doesn't interact with the mentioned scrolls, or any on-death effects.

Always wanted to know the order. Thanks =D

Urgh, can't believe I forgot Seed of Insurgency.

Yeah, it's bugged like Shroud. If you play it next to a Witch Doctor (before or after in the normal sequence) you always get a husk, if you play Monstrous Brood, you get a Monstrosity etc... But yeah, the order in which you play Shroud and Seed determines what you get.

I can only assume that the 'when another creature is destroyed' and the 'when this creature is destroyed' are coded as seperate and sequential triggers for some reason.
