Forum:Multiple Chains vs Attack Declaration

I know that there can only be one chain in response to an attack, so that if my Dimensional Prison is negated by Seven Tools of the Bandit, I can't activate anything else directly in response to the attack such as another Prison once that chain has resolved, but I can activate things not in response to the attack in the Damage Step, such as Shrink, and that even if Shrink is negated by a counter trap, I can still activate another Shrink after that counter trap has resolved, before the attack goes through. My question is can I activate things not directly in response to the attack and not in the Damage Step as many times as I like? For example, if my Prison is negated by a counter trap, can I activate Enemy Controller once the counter trap has resolved, before the attack goes through (and another Enemy Controller if the first one was negated by a counter trap)? 82.35.91.113 (talk) 21:17, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
