Replacement effect vs Static

Asked by -MisterJ- 9 years ago

okay so I control Rain of Gore and Erebos, God of the Dead

then lets say a player casts Swords to Plowshares or something and should gain life if nothing were preventing it, does the player lose life as a cause of Rain of Gore's replacement effect or does Erebos negate the effect since the player never could have gained the life to begin with?

Nothing would happen. Rain of Gore's replacement effect only occurs if a player would gain life, which is exactly what Erebos, God of the Dead static effect prevents from ever happening.
