11 rulings for 4 cards
Arcanis the Omnipotent
Arcanis's last ability can be activated only while it's on the battlefield.
Brimaz, King of Oreskos
For the first triggered ability, you declare which player, planeswalker, or battle the token is attacking as you put it onto the battlefield. It doesn't have to be the same player or planeswalker Brimaz is attacking.
Although the tokens enter the battlefield attacking or blocking, they were never declared as attacking or blocking creatures. Abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks or blocks won't trigger.
If Brimaz somehow blocks two or more creatures (note it can't naturally do this), its last ability will trigger that many times.
Queen Marchesa
The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward.
Being the monarch carries two inherent triggered abilities. "At the beginning of the monarch's end step, that player draws a card" and "Whenever a creature deals combat damage to the monarch, its controller becomes the monarch."
If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack, and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.
Abilities that trigger whenever you "become the monarch" trigger only if you aren't already the monarch. For example, if you are already the monarch as Custodi Lich enters the battlefield, its last ability won't trigger.
The last ability of Queen Marchesa (long may she reign) checks to see if an opponent is the monarch as your upkeep begins. If no opponent is the monarch, Queen Marchesa's (long may she reign) ability won't trigger at all. Queen Marchesa's (long may she reign) ability will also check to see if an opponent is the monarch as it tries to resolve. If no opponent is the monarch at that time, Queen Marchesa's (long may she reign) ability will have no effect.
Savra, Queen of the Golgari
Sacrificing a creature that's both black and green will make both abilities trigger. You may put them on the stack in whichever order you want.
Savra itself doesn't let you sacrifice creatures. Its abilities trigger whenever you sacrifice a black or green creature because some other spell, ability, or cost instructed you to do so.
Also Printed in Other Drops
Some of these cards came in other Secret Lair drops too, each with its own art.
