Okay so say I have angrath's marauders on the field which says when a source you control would deal damage to a player or permanent they control, deal twice that much damage instead. I attack with a 3/3. My opponent blocks with a 2/3 and a 2/2.
Since when my creatures deals damage, it deals twice that much, can I assign 2 damage to the first creature (which turns into 4 damage - lethal) and then 1 damage to the second creature (which turns into 2 damage - lethal) to kill both? Or do I have to assign all 3 damage to the first creature even though it would become 6?
In this scenario, the latter (assuming the attacker and blockers have no abilities). Angrath's Marauders's ability affects only how much damage certain sources deal, not how much combat damage creatures assign. For the purpose of assigning combat damage, that ability is irrelevant, since it doesn't change whether the assigned damage is lethal damage for such purpose (C.R. 510.1c-d). As a result, for example, the attacking creature still doesn't assign more combat damage than its power despite that ability (C.R. 510.1c).

Hi guys, I have a question related to Angrath's Marauders that is similar to this one. The ability says that "if a source you control would deal damage..." Does that mean that if I attack with two creatures that both deal damage, the damage of both is doubled? In other words, can the ability trigger more times in a turn?
Let's say I control Angrath's Marauders and I attack with two 2/2 creatures, each of them gets blocked by a 2/4 creature. Do all four creatures die or does one of the opponent's creatures stay alive as the Marauders only double the damage of one of my 2/2s?
First of all, not a triggered ability. The ability is a replacement effect that applies to all damage dealt by sources you control at all times.
In this scenario, each of the 2/2 creatures assigns 2 combat damage, which is doubled by the replacement effect into 4. Each creature thus has damage marked on it equal to its toughness and dies when state-based effects are checked.
I have a hexproof creature and I am wondering if I block with a 3/3 hexproof and my opponent controls angrath marauder while he is attacking with a 2/2 creature does it still assign it's double damage to my creature and kill it? Or does my creature kills his and survives? Please help me because I am very lost. Thank you.
The 2/2 doesn't assign double damage, but it deals twice the damage assigned because of Angrath's Marauders. At the same time, the 3/3 deals 3 damage to the 2/2 creature. After this, both creatures have lethal damage and are destroyed.
Both are destroyed, and the hexproof doesn't matter.
