fatefull showdown with your whole deck

Asked by 1501vandgarr 6 years ago

If I cast Fateful Showdown with enough cards in my hand to both deck myself and kill my opponent who wins, on the card they take the damage first but does the game look at the board state until after the card resolves? And if not Is it a draw or do I lose

State-based actions are not performed in the middle of a resolution. Neither player will lose the game until after Fateful Showdown fully resolves.

At that point, your opponent will lose the game for having 0 or less life, and you will lose the game for attempting to draw from an empty library. These actions occur simultaneously, meaning you both lose. The game result is a tie.
