This is a rather complicated situation.
My opponent has lots of mana available. He casts Goblin Cannon, gets
a googol mana in his mana pool and puts that many activations onto
the stack. There's nothing I can do about that right then. (Bummer.)
For some reason I control a Lich's Tomb. (Yes, its a wacky fun deck.)
So when the first shot hits me, my opponent sacrifices the cannon and
I have to sacrifice a permanent (due to having lost one life from
Goblin Cannon's first shot).
I sacrifice a Riptide Crab. (Fun deck. Yeah.) Thus I get to draw a
card, which turns out to be a Pay No Heed. Yay.
So here's my question: Can I even use it? The Goblin Cannon has
already been sacrificed and is in the graveyard. All the rockets
are already in the air. (I wonder why my opponent keeps calling
them "rockets", but anyway.)
-> Is the artifact card in the graveyard still a legal choice for
Pay No Heed?
-> And if it is, will choosing it actually stop ALL the googol
other activations on the stack from damaging me?
-> Am I lucky or what? (We weren't sure whether this works, but
since my opponent enjoyed the game he agreed that I could
prevent all the damage.)
Thanks.
