Suggestion
Please add an option to the Your Triggered Abilities window that allows a player to put all currently pending triggered abilities onto the stack in any legal order.
Something as simple as:
"Stack All — Any Order"
would solve a major usability problem for decks that generate large numbers of simultaneous triggers.
Use case
Aristocrats decks frequently produce dozens of triggers after a board wipe or sacrifice effect.
For example, if 10 creatures die while I control several permanents with death triggers, MTGO may present 30+ triggered abilities in the ordering window.
In many situations, I genuinely do not care about their relative order. However, MTGO currently requires me to manually place them onto the stack one at a time.
This creates two problems:
Add a button such as:
Stack All — Any Order
Clicking it would explicitly tell MTGO that the player is voluntarily allowing the client to choose any legal ordering for all currently pending triggers.
Players who care about the exact ordering could simply continue using the existing manual interface.
An additional useful option could be:
Stack All Identical Triggers
or right-clicking a trigger and selecting:
Stack All Copies of This Trigger
This would preserve full control when ordering matters while dramatically improving gameplay for decks with large numbers of repetitive triggers.
Why this matters
This has been a recurring community request for years. Players were already discussing the limitations of automatic trigger stacking in 2021, and by 2023 there were explicit requests for essentially this exact feature: an option to put all currently pending triggers onto the stack in any order.
So this is not an isolated edge case affecting one deck. It is a longstanding usability issue for strategies that naturally generate large numbers of simultaneous triggers.
Recent MTGO updates have made excellent improvements to combo execution, saved targets, yields, and other repetitive game actions. A general "Stack All" option would address a remaining major source of unnecessary clicking, particularly for Aristocrats, sacrifice, token, death-trigger, and similar strategies.

This creates two problems:
- It requires dozens of unnecessary clicks.
- Each trigger takes noticeable time to move onto the stack, so processing a large group can take a significant amount of real time.
