What happens when my Ichorclaw myr attacks a planeswalker

Asked by Sme4 8 years ago

What would happen if I where to attack a Liliana of the Veil with my Ichorclaw Myr because cards with infect deal damage in -1/-1 counters?

Cards with infect deal damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters. The damage they deal to planeswalkers is unaffected.

702.88b Damage dealt to a player by a source with infect doesn't cause that player to lose life. Rather, it causes the player to get that many poison counters. See rule 119.3.

702.88c Damage dealt to a creature by a source with infect isn't marked on that creature. Rather, it causes that many -1/-1 counters to be put on that creature. See rule 119.3.

119.3c Damage dealt to a planeswalker causes that many loyalty counters to be removed from that planeswalker.
