Katilda, Dawnhart Prime + the Stack/Priority
I've had this happen a couple of times and it's rather frustrating. Say turn 1 I play a Plains and a 1 drop human (say the gain life on creature etb). Turn 2 I play Katilda, the gain life goes on the stack, my opponent responds with a kill spell and Katilda dies.
Here's the problem. Katilda says my humans can tap for mana. Unless I'm holding full control the entire time I don't get the opportunity to respond to the kill spell by floating mana from my 1 drop. With Katilda, let give me time to float mana instead of just auto-resolving the kill spell. Sure I may not have an instant, but I could use the floating mana to cast another 1 drop.
