Reverse the Sands and Boon/Wound Reflection
Asked by DemonDragonJ 2 years ago
In this scenario, one player has 20 life and another player has 10 life. The player with 10 life controls both Boon Reflection and Wound Reflection and then casts Reverse the Sands, giving themselves 20 life and the other player 10 life.
Is each player considered to have gained or lost life, in this scenario? Will the abilities of the enchantments work with redistributing the life totals?

... with Boon Reflection you would instead gain 20 life. With Wound Reflection the other player would lose an additional 10 life at the end step

Yes. In your situation, you would gain 10 life, while your opponent loses 10 life when you cast Reverse the Sands.
From the rules "119.5. If an effect sets a player’s life total to a specific number, the player gains or loses the necessary amount of life to end up with the new total."
