The beginning phase is the first phase in a turn. It consists of three steps, in order:
Untap step
Upkeep step
The upkeep step is the second step of the beginning phase. It is the first time during a turn when players gain priority.
At the beginning of the upkeep step, any abilities that trigger either during the untap step or at the beginning of upkeep go on the stack. Then the active player gains priority.
Draw step
The draw step is the third step of the beginning phase. The following events occur during this phase, in order:
- The active player draws a card from their library.
- Any abilities that trigger at the beginning of the draw step go on the stack.
- The active player gains priority.
