double blocking with lifeline

Asked by Eightball 8 years ago

if Blisterpod attacks and I block with two Seeker of the Way with lifelink triggered. Would both do damage to gain the life or would only one do damage?

Both creatures deal damage. Remember that creatures always deal total combat damage equal to their power, regardless of whether it's overkill or not. You'll gain as much life as you dealt damage.

Sans first strike, all combat damage is dealt simultaneously. So both Seeker of the Ways will assign combat damage to Blisterpod, even though only one of them is enough kill it, and you will gain life for both.
