Can I tap Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh Flip after first strike damage is applied?
Asked by HoboTSH 8 years ago
So say I am attacking with Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh Flip and my opponent decides to block her with say a Siege Rhino. I then cast Temur Battle Rage on her. Chandra untaps. Can I tap Chandra again after the first strike damage has been dealt to flip her and avoid her dying to the Siege Rhino?

Yes.
510.5. If at least one attacking or blocking creature has first strike (see rule 702.7) or double strike (see rule 702.4) as the combat damage step begins, the only creatures that assign combat damage in that step are those with first strike or double strike. After that step, instead of proceeding to the end of combat step, the phase gets a second combat damage step. The only creatures that assign combat damage in that step are the remaining attackers and blockers that had neither first strike nor double strike as the first combat damage step began, as well as the remaining attackers and blockers that currently have double strike. After that step, the phase proceeds to the end of combat step.
