Title: Armadillo Cloak and Spirit Link
Post by: Mattao19 on October 28, 2013, 04:48:59 PM
{Armidillo Cloak} and {Spirit Link}

Say I swing with a 3/3 enchanted with both of these, do I heal 6 or 9?

...so those aren't just texts before they started calling it Lifelink? They're really not redundant?

They are not redundant. Each enchantment and ability triggers separately.

Correct. They are different from lifelink. With cards like {Armadillo Cloak} or {Spirit Link} whoever controls the enchantment gains the life. If they were to give lifelink, whoever controls the creature would gain the life.

Careful. That still counts as commander damage dealt and will cause you to lose after 21 points to you.
