Double-strike and lifelink
Asked by daniferrito 11 years ago
Say i have a 5/5 creature with both double strike and lifelink. I attack with it and my oponent blocks with a 1/1. As it deals the first part of the damage to the 1/1 creature, i would gain 5 life, and the other creature would die. As the other creature is no longer alive, do i gain the other 5 life or not?
Once you attack with a double striker and it's blocked, it gets to deal a 1st set of damage. If the creature dies, which it did, you'll gain the 5 original life. Unfortunately, unless the double striker has trample, the other 5 goes to waste and you will not get the 5 life.

no you will not, since the creature is no longer there to deal damage to.
