Sword of light and shadow question
Asked by Enral 7 years ago
I attack with a creature equipped with sword of light and shadow and creature B. Creature B died as a result of combat damage. Will I get to get creature B back from sword of light and shadow?

Yes.
Once damage is dealt, state based actions (SBA) are checked before you get to put the triggered ability on the stack. Essentially, the ability is queued up waiting for SBAs to finish.
Once the creature is put into the GY, SBAs are checked again, assuming nothing else happens, you get to put your triggered ability on the stack. As you do this, you select a target. Creature B is in the GY at this point, and therefor a legal target.
