Breakthrough/dredge/discard

[ddt15]

If you have a discarter in play (tireless tribe or putrid imp) and you cast breakthrough with only 1 dredger in the graveyard, can you stack each card draw from breakthrough independantly and respond by discarting the dredger you got back from the previous draw with you discarter? (Meaning wether you can use the same dredger 4 times by discarting him in between each draw?).

A friend of me assured me that this works but I am not sure of it (and my rules knowledge is a bit rusty).

Thx in advance.

It won't work. You can play activated abilities only when you receive priority. Players don't receive priority during a spell resolution.

However, you can use a dredger you've just dredged.

No. The entire effect of Breakthrough is on the stack as 1 single effect. You draw the cards one by one, which would trigger a Lorescale Coatl 4 times for instance, but the counters won't be placed between the draws, but afterwards. You can't activate anything during the resolution of Breakthrough; you simply don't get priority to activate your Tireless Tribe or Pimp.

Edit, bah ninjamaveric :wink:

I thought so, thanks.
