Command the dreadhoard reanimating Platinum empirion
Asked by SMASHER101 4 years ago
Do I take damage or no? Note that unlike madcap experiment this card says you take the damage period, then you reanimate the creatures.

Also of note is that with Platinum Emperion out you still take damage, the damage just doesn't cause your life total to change. You can still be given poison counters as a result of being dealt damage from a source with infect and a lifelink creature dealing damage to you will still cause its controller to gain life (unless you are the controller since your life total can't change).

Command the Dreadhorde
Platinum Emperion
Madcap Experiment
You are correct. The fact that Command the Dreadhorde deals damage before putting the creatures on the battlefield means Platinum Emperion will not be on the battlefield to prevent your life total from changing when the damage is dealt.
