Can this work, and this is how ive been playing with standstill:
I have standstill in play -
Player B cast a spell, which I want to counter, standstill triggers, priority passes
Can I then do nothing, let standstill resolve, draw 3 cards, then counter the spell, or do I not have oppurtunity to do this because I passed back priority?
You will still have the opportunity to counter the spelll, as you will regain priority after the Standstill trigger resolves.
Landstill essentially would not function as an archetype if after having your Standstill broken, you did not have the opportunity to play any further spells.
I was playing a game online, and I had standstill in play.
My opponent played a spell, standstill triggered, and the he claimed he is trickbinding/stifle the standstill. Does that work based on priority, and also because he plays a spell, standstill triggers , he plays trickbind/stifle on the first trigger, but before trickbind/stifle resolves doesnt a second standstill trigger go, and then depending on the answer to my first question I either draw 3 cards or can draw 3 cards and play another spell without fear of standstill?
Also I have "trickbind/stifle", because I wonder if this will only work with trickbind and not stifle?
Casting Trickbind or Stifle with a Standstill trigger on the stack, provided the Standstill has not been sacrificed (it is sacrificed on resolution of the trigger), will create another Standstill trigger. You cannot Stifle or Trickbind a Standstill to effectively prevent a player from drawing 3 cards.
