When multiple sources take "Phyrexian Unlife" below 0, do the remainder become infect?

Asked by pookypuppy6 14 years ago

"Phyrexian Unlife (2W Enchantment)You do not lose the game for having 0 or less lifeAs long as your life is 0 or less, all damage dealt to you is dealt as if the source had infect"

Here, the masterplan is to pair it with Eternity Vessel , but as I am at 10 life my hypothetical opponent swings with creatures for 15 damage.

If all the combat damage happens at the same time, would the remaining sources that would take me below 0 deal poison counters, or would all of it be regular damage from this one big swing?

It will all be regular damage, since as you said the damage from combat occurs at the same time.

What Oulani said. Also interestingly I was thinking of comboing it with Form of the Dragon , there are alot of exploitable cards to use it with, provided the translation is correct.

Word of warning, First Strike changes things slightly, if First Strike damage brings you to 0 or lower, the rest will be poison.
