If I have a {Wall of Souls} and my opponent attacks with a 15/15 trampler do they take fifteen or four. I know I take trample damage but do they take the full amount
Ony lethal damage is assigned to the wall. Normally they would take 15 but due to trample only 4 is assigned to wall of souls, the rest is assigned to you and irrelevent to the ability

MisterJH got it! Here's the ruling, for reference:
702.18b The controller of an attacking creature with trample first assigns damage to the creature(s) blocking it. Once all those blocking creatures are assigned lethal damage, any remaining damage is assigned as its controller chooses among those blocking creatures and the player or planeswalker the creature is attacking. When checking for assigned lethal damage, take into account damage already marked on the creature and damage from other creatures that's being assigned during the same combat damage step, but not any abilities or effects that might change the amount of damage that's actually dealt. The attacking creature's controller need not assign lethal damage to all those blocking creatures but in that case can't assign any damage to the player or planeswalker it's attacking.
Thanks that what I thought but my friend thought I would take the full amount
