Okay! So a debate has arisen amongst my group. Let's say I cast Divergent Transformations targeting two of my own creatures, and the only other two creatures I have in my deck are Thassa's Oracle and Leveler. Does the order in which they're revealed matter, or can I stack their triggers as I choose? Based on the card and it's ruling, I assume they enter individually, and the etbs stack in that order, but others say I'd get to choose the order in which the stack. help?

Wether several triggers go off in sequence or simultaneously during the resolution of a spell/ability, they have to wait. And then later when a player would get priority, all waiting triggers are put on the stack. If multiple of those are controlled by the same player, that player gets to choose their relative order on the stack. So in your scenario, you get to choose the order.
edit:
117.2a Triggered abilities can trigger at any time, including while a spell is being cast, an ability is being activated, or a spell or ability is resolving. (See rule 603, “Handling Triggered Abilities.”) However, nothing actually happens at the time an ability triggers. Each time a player would receive priority, each ability that has triggered but hasn’t yet been put on the stack is put on the stack. See rule 117.5.
603.3b If multiple abilities have triggered since the last time a player received priority, each player, in APNAP order, puts triggered abilities they control on the stack in any order they choose. (See rule 101.4.) Then the game once again checks for and resolves state-based actions until none are performed, then abilities that triggered during this process go on the stack. This process repeats until no new state-based actions are performed and no abilities trigger. Then the appropriate player gets priority.
