resolve trigger for Planetarium of wan shin tong
Bug: no chance to intervene with interaction/removal play from Planetarium of wan shin tong after seeing which card was pulled.
Platform: windows/steam
Actual result: after resolving Planetarium of wan shin tong trigger bumi bash appeared and resolved without me having a say.
Expected result: I would see which card is being played and would be able to trigger any instant ability like zuko, exiled prince's 3 mana ability before the card resolves.
detail for reproducing:
all lands where untapped so i had enough mana even without the firebending that was burrowed in the stack
I was not given an oppertunity to intervene once the card pulled by the Planetarium of wan shin tong was shown.
The stack triggered -> Planetarium of wan shin tong, scry ability -> Planetarium of wan shin tong can play a card, i hit resolve here (not resolve all just to be clear) i was expecting to be shown which card would be played so that i could make decisions but as soon as i hit resolve on the above the stack was dissolved without giving me any further chance to interact.
I'm 99% certain it was not a time-out issue but it would be nice to try to reproduce it in a dev environment?
The stack consistet of a couple firebending instances from tokens and Zuko, Exiled Prince -> Planetarium of wan shin tong, scry/tap ability -> play card ability.
The card that was pulled was some dmg card (99% certain it was Bumi bash) onto zuko.
I was not given a chance to use zukos active ability and lost the draft event due to it
I did not take a screenshot. how should i have? i didn't expect this to happen and within half a second of seeing the bumi bash card my prince zuko was dead and the stack dissolved.

There might have been a misunderstanding then. I could *not* respond to the spell itself. It never gave me a chance to intervene *after the effect went on the stack* but before it was resolved. And it should have.

It does not resolve the spell that was cast, but the CASTING itself happens DURING the Planetarium's trigger's resolution. You cannot interrupt that. You do get to respond to the spell that is cast this way, but you cannot respond in between looking at the top card and the spell being cast. I never said anything about RESOLVING the spell, nor that you could not respond to the spell. Likewise, I did not say you couldn't respond to the trigger caused by a scry.
And I'm using caps because that is the only way I have with pure text to put an emphasis on a word. I would like to use bolded text, underlining, italics, etc. But I can't, this platform does not offer such options.

when a card is cast the effect goes on the stack. that's how mtg works from all i know. planetarium lets you play/casts the card. it does not say it resolves the effect. so i'm sorry but what you are saying makes 0 sense rezzahan.
that's like saying anytime a card is played via an ability the card becomes automatically uncounterable. Or even more so; it's like saying whenever a card is played it is unreactable since it's already played. but playing a card and the effect of a card resolving are two very separate things in between which one always can intervene. That's how counterspells or anything in this game work. You never see cards before they are played.
Playing the card is one thing. The card effect of the played card resolving is a completely different thing that first needs to go on the stack
Yes. The effect of a card goes on the stack AFTER it has been cast. And first AFTER the effect goes ON THE STACK, you are ALLWAYS able to react unless you literally have nothing you could play or activate at instant speed. Stop BSing and CAPPING. Just to include some caps for you since you like CAPSLOCK so much.

You did not get to interfere, because no player gets priority while a spell or ability is resolving. Looking at the card and playing it is ALL part of the Planetarium's ability resolution. Players only get priority BEFORE that ability resolves, so BEFORE the card is looked at, and AFTER the ability has finished resolving, so AFTER the spell has been cast (or not). There is NO WINDOW to intervene in between the two.
