Say I have a 5/5 with lifelink and I swing and they block with a 1/1 do I gain 5 or 1 life
5
It only takes 1 damage to kill that 1/1 but you're still dealing 5 damage.
RESOLVED
Thanks one of my friends has insisted you gain one because you're only dealing 1
Really wanna get at your friend, use a card with life link and double strike.
If you have a 5/5 with both, you deal a total of 10 damage and gain 10 life. :D

That would only be if the creature survives the first strike. You would only gain 5 life if the creature was 5 or less toughness.

or if you had trample
Double-strike + trample = table rage
Therefore good.
