MTG: any specific order it happens?

Question

on the battlefield I have:
Pilgrim's Eye
Champion of the Parish (no counters yet)
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=262861
Cathars' Crusade
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=276198
Inexorable Tide
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=194363
Now I cast a Soul Warden.  Is it my choice on which order things happen?  Does Cathars' Crusade/Champion activate first or does Inexorable Tide kick in first?

Chris · Accepted Answer

The Inexorable Tide triggers on you playing the Soul Warden spell. The Cathars' Crusade and Champion of the Parish trigger when it comes into play. That means that the proliferate trigger will resolve before the Soul Warden does. Then once the Soul Warden resolves, Cathars' Crusade and Champion of the Parish will both trigger; since you control both, you get to choose which one resolves first.

Just refer to Inexorable Tide's rulings:

1/1/2011	Whenever you cast a spell, Inexorable Tide's ability triggers and goes on the stack on top of it. It will resolve (and you'll proliferate) before the spell resolves.

So sorry, but it's not a Combo, it'd only work for the Champion AFTER you had counters on it.
