Hi everyone
Just wondering. I have a 12/12 trample and im attacking a wall of hope . The wall dies but does my opponent gain 12 life and take 9 damage? Or only gain 3 life because my creature has trample?
Thanks

Unless you choose to assign more of your 12/12's power to the Wall than the minimum 3, they only gain 3 life. You assign 3 to the Wall and 9 to the player because of trample, the Wall only gets dealt 3 damage.

I'm a former judge (lapsed), who keeps up to date on rules and policy. Keep in mind that judges' answers aren't necessarily more valid than those of people who aren't judges; what matters is we can quote the rules to back up our answers. When in doubt, ask for such quotes.
Just for clarification: note that you are never actually attacking a creature - you can only attack opponents or planswalkers your opponents control. Your opponents then choose if/how to block.
