Answer

Ruling: The controller of the last link added to the chain gets priority first. When there are both attack and defend triggers, the defender gets priority first because defend triggers are added to the chain after attack triggers.

Sequence:

  • Attack triggers are added to the chain first
  • Defend triggers are added to the chain second
  • The defender (who controls the last chain link) receives priority first

Nuances:

  • If there are no attacker triggers, the defender has first priority
  • This ruling is based on rule 312.2.c, which gives priority to the controller of the last item on the chain
  • Priority and being the active player are the same designation
