I was playing against a friend who had 6 Hallimar Excavators being activated(Clones/Jwari). My deck has the Eldrazi legendaries in it, so if they get milled, I can reshuffle my library.He was saying, because they activate at the same time, that I cant shuffle in. I was saying that because each ally has to pick a target, they happen separately, and every 6th card I can check my grave for the legendaries so I can reshuffle back in.Who is right?
The active player gets to choose in what order all triggered abilities resolve, but they all have to resolve anyways. So, basically, you opponent mills 40 cards, but he mills 2 ulamogs and 1 kozilek. Since all three of them's shuffle abilities trigger, he can choose in what order. So, he could choose for Ulamog no. 1's ability to trigger first, shuffling it and the rest of your graveyard into your library, including the other ulamog and kozilek. So, then, say, kozilek's ability resolves, which shuffles it (which is no longer in the graveyard) and all other 0 cards back into your library, and the same with the second ulamog.
Each Excavator gets triggered and its ability put on the stack. 6 cards get milled, if an eldrazi hits the graveyard, it trigger once that particular effect is done (in this case, it will have the oppurtunity to trigger once every six cards milled) cards are in the graveyard, and then before the rest of the cards are milled, you shuffle your deck.with your graveyard. Then you start to mill again.
Basically you are right. While all six abilities will trigger at the same time, they resolve one at a time. If any of the six cards you put into the graveyard is an Emrakul, the Aeons Torn for example, then Emrakul's ability will trigger. It will be the next ability to resolve, causing you to shuffle your graveyard into your library, then the Hallimar Excavators abilities that have not yet resolved, will continue to resolve one at a time. Also, the fact that each Hallimar Excavator has to pick a target for its ability makes no difference.
