I've read the WOTC rulings on how broken Panharmonicon is truly a masterpiece, but I need to know a couple of things before I run it in modern. I'm confused as to the limitations of the trigger. Let's say I have Panharmonicon out, two Corpsejack Menace, and a Fathom Mage.
If I, let's say cast a Mistcutter Hydra for 7 and evolve will trigger twice on the mage, would that also include corpsejack to trigger twice each? I mean technically a creature that came in did trigger the doubling abilities.
Corpsejack Menace doesn't have any triggered abilties. It has a static ability that creates a replacement effect. Panharmonicon does not interact with it. The only card of the ones you mentioned that does interact with Panharmonicon is Fathom Mage and only the evolve ability of it. you can identify a triggered ability by the use of the words "when", "whenever", or "at". If it doesn't use any of those, it is not a triggered ability. The word "instead" is a clear indicator for a replacement effect.
In the future, please ask such questions in the rules forum.
