Official rulings

2 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

Old Fat Spider's last ability resolves before the spell or ability that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell or ability is countered or otherwise leaves the stack without resolving.

If a spell or ability targets Old Fat Spider more than once, its last ability still triggers only once.
