Angel of serenity, Thragtusk and Olivia Voldaren

Hi,

I am not long in this Forum so i dont know if this question already did came up.

The situation from MTGO was, that i stole a thragtusk from my opponent by using Olivia voldarens second ability. In his next turn, he casts an Angel of Serenity, exiling the Thragtusk and Olivia.

Mtgo gave him the Token from the leaves battlefield trigger of thragtusk.

Can anyone of you tell me why?

since both creatures left the battlefield at the same time, i assumed that i get the token, because i controll the thragtusk, as it leaves the battlefield.

thanks

That sounds like a bug.

When the Angel's enter the battlefield trigger resolves, everything is exiled at the same time. Since you controlled the Thragtusk when it was exiled, you should control the Thragtusk's triggered ability. It doesn't matter that Olivia was also getting exiled at the same time.

So in the end, you should have gotten the token, not your opponent, since you controlled Thragtusk when it was exiled.
