Does Dreadhorde Butcher's death thrigger turn into a Murder with Death Baron?

Asked by Mokan 6 years ago

I was wondering whether the Baron's anthem has effect on Butcher, while he's dying. That would mean his death trigger will deal 1 bonus damage and have deathtouch. Please correct me, if I'm wrong, or tell me if I'm right!

702.2e If an object changes zones before an effect causes it to deal damage, its last known information is used to determine whether it had deathtouch.

Thanks to Death Baron , Dreadhorde Butcher had deathtouch when it died. Thanks to last known information, so long as its power was 1 or more when it died, it will deal deathtouch damage to the chosen target, and if that target is a creature that doesn't have some means of surviving deathtouch, it will be destroyed.
