Lifelink and "lethal damage"
Asked by Fizzz 10 years ago
I read somewhere that lifelink causes life gain as damage is dealt... BUT, what happens when:
I am at 4 life, a 9/9 trampler attacks me and I block with a 4/4 lifelink guy?
Do I die before I gain life? Or do I gain 4 life going to 8, then go to 3 from the 5 trampling damage?

4+4-5=3 and 4-5+4=3, whichever way round you work it. It is all calculated at once, and you live to fight another turn!

Damage happens all at once, and that means you get your life gain at the same time as well. So,its not literally an order of going to 8 then 3, you just simply go to 3.
