Event: Across Ixalan
Node: Second
Imminent Doom is triggering at the beginning of every one of my turns without me casting a spell. It even adds another shield.
//Edited Title -Brigby
I was not able to replicate this behavior in Training Grounds.
My opponent’s Scattered Groves also triggered on my turn in the same event-node.
There are other cards autotriggering in other events.
Ayili triggered her Activate effect when entering the board in the Gatewatch event just now. There were some other cards triggering on several turns when they only had ETB effects.

I’m pretty sure that the special effects in Across Ixalan are coded as a free invisible spell getting cast. Riddleform was triggering for me for free in node 2 as well. Presumably the automatic Explore was getting counted as a spell.
Hmm that’s certainly an interesting behavior. I’ll pass this along to QA to take a look at. Thanks!
