Soulfire Grand Master and Crackling Doom?

Asked by TheRed1226 9 years ago

So your instants have lifelink because Soulfire Grand Master is down, and you play crackling doom.....you gain 4 life for the "2 to each player" part, but do you gain life for the "each player sacrifices a creature" part? or would this require a target? or...something?

Crackling Doom

Soulfire Grand Master

Crackling doom only deals 2 damage per opponent so you'd only gain 2 assuming it's 1v1.

Sacrificing creatures does not deal any damage so you wouldn't gain life for that.

Soulfire Grand Master just gives instant and sorcery spells you control lifelink. It doesn't change how lifelink works, and it doesn't mean that lifelink will be relevant to all of your spells. Remember that lifelink just means that damage dealt by the object with lifelink will cause its controller to gain that much life. If your spell doesn't deal any damage, then lifelink is inapplicable.
