I just had a game in Magic Duels where Kothophed died at the same time as two creatures the opponent owned due to combat damage, but there were no triggers. Is this correct?

I ask because I thought that Kothophed would still trigger despite dying at the same time as those other creatures.

I'm pretty sure that's a Duels bug. The ability should have triggered.

Ok, that's what I thought. Whew...I'm usually the one everybody turns to for rules desputes at the local FNM, and several weeks ago (probably a couple months now, actually) someone had a similar situation. I ruled that Kothophed would still trigger for each creature that died at the same time as it did. Had me worried that I'd told people wrong. :sweat:

Yeah, your ruling was definitely right. Duels is decent on the rules front, but there's definitely still a few bugs left.

I think "a few" is being a little too friendly. :P "several" sounds about right.

I made a joke presenting at a demo/workshop that "Our software is totally bug free". No one laughed though.
