Hi, just one question about this card. Can it exile creatures with persist or undying? For example, I use Red Sun's Zenith to deal lethal damage to a kitchen finks without a -1/-1 counter on it. Would the finks persist or would it be exiled by red sun?
Red Sun's Zenith has a replacement effect. The creature is exiled instead of being put on the graveyard. It never actually goes to the graveyard, something else happens instead.
Persist and Undying are triggered abilities. When the creature is put on the graveyard, the ability triggers and goes to the stack. The ability needs the creature to actually go to the graveyard.
Kitchen Finks is exiled, and its Persist ability never triggers.
