Forbidden Orchard triggers

[yankeedave]

Hey ya'll

Got a quick vintage question - in the Oath mirror match, I choose to Echoing Truth in my opponents end step, bouncing the spirit tokens, using my Forbidden Orchard to create more tokens. How do I stack the effects correctly so that I still have at least one token after Echoing Truth resolves? Is that even possible?

Thanks

Thanks mate, I read about someone doing this on TMD the other day and it did make me wonder if it was possible. Cheers for the clarification!

This should work, unless I'm mistaken about what you want to do:

1. Tap Orchard for mana; Orchard's ability triggers.
2. In response to Orchard's trigger, cast Echoing Truth
3. Echoing Truth resolves and bounces all the tokens
4. Orchard's ability resolves, your opponent gets one token.

Ah yes, I forgot about Instants, heh - you can indeed respond to the Orchard trigger if you tap it first and then play the Echoing Truth.
