Turn Sequence and Blocking
Asked by epicPlain 3 years ago
If I block with a creature and my opponent destroys it (e.g. with direct damage from Frost Bite ) after that I assigned it to block but before the combat damage phase, is that attacker considered to have been blocked or does that attacking creature deal damages to me?

Balduvian Warlord is a good example of this, after a quick Scryfall look

Blocking cannot be undone (except maybe by certain 1-off effects that I don't know about). If a creature is declared as a blocker, the creature(s) which it has blocked remain blocked.
Now, if the blocked creature has trample, then the trampler sees no toughness to assign damage to and you would take all the damage, but otherwise you receive none.
