Circle of Flame and Lifelink
Asked by Argy 9 years ago
My opponent used Secure the Wastes to make four 1/1 Soldiers.
Next turn s/he activated the 1st ability for Sorin, Solemn Visitor then attacked with the 4 Soldiers.
I had a Circle of Flame on the field.
Does s/he get the Lifelink before the Soldiers are burnt by the Flame? I think that is what happens.
Thanks for your help.

No, there is no life gained by the opponent.
The ability of the Circle is triggered and resolves when attackers are declared, which is a couple of steps and phases before the creatures can deal damage and make use of their lifelink.
