Thunderbreak Regent by Jason Rainville

A Kolaghan dragon blasts lightning over a small remote Ojutai outpost, breaking off one of its overhangs.

What is the interaction between Gideon of the Trials and Thunderbreak Regent? Is the damage from the Regent's ability prevented as soon as Gideon pokes it, or does the Regent get a bolt off?

You're going to get zapped.

Whenever something triggers from a spell being cast or an ability being activated, that triggered ability goes on the stack above the spell or ability that triggered it and resolves first. So when Gideon goes to put that bubble around Thunderbreak Regent, the Regent gets mad and gets off a shot at you before Gideon can work his magic.

If someone cast Disdainful Stroke on a Thunderbreak Regent do they take the 3 because DS is targeting Regent?

No.

Thunderbreak Regent’s ability only functions when it’s on the battlefield, not when it’s on the stack.

If I cast thunderbreak regent and my opponent plays disdainful stroke do they take 3 ?

No.

Thunderbreak Regent’s triggered ability only functions when it’s a permanent on the battlefield.

[magicjudge]

If I have a thunderbreak regent out, and an opponent targets it with a spell, if I counter the spell, will the 3 damage from targeting thunderbreak still apply? Thank you!

Yes.

Thunderbreak Regent’s ability triggers when the spell is cast and doesn’t care if that spell is still on the stack or targeting Thunderbreak Regent at that time.
