Rulings
- : The check of whether the enchanted creature has three or more +1/+1 counters on it happens as part of the resolution of the attack triggered ability. If the third +1/+1 counter is put on the enchanted creature any other way, you won't sacrifice Ordeal of Nylea until the next time the creature attacks.
- : Ordeal of Nylea's last ability will trigger when you sacrifice it for any reason, not just when you sacrifice it because of the effect of its second ability.
