    World Purge
    Teferi's Protection

    In a game I cast World Purge and when it gets back around to me I cast Teferi's Protection.

    Certain people are telling me I cannot cast TP in response to WP. I say that I can. Who is right?

    Song of the Dryads

    Shimmer


    I have enchanted my opponents commander with Song of the Dryads. He cast Shimmer and when it resolves, he chooses forests. Does SOTD go away when that forest phases out?

    I think I got it. Here is how it went down, for more clarification...

    I have 9 creatures totaling 20 damage.

    He has 19 life. He blocks 4, which, if it was a simple attack and block scenario, leaves him with 2 life.

    Realizing this (and planning on him blocking), after he assigns blockers I cast lightning bolt, targeting him, bringing him to 16 life.

    My 5 unblocked creatures deal 17 damage, bringing his life to -1, killing him AFTER combat damage is dealt.

    Sangromancer

    Good evening!

    I was play a multiplayer FFA EDH game on Saturday and something happened that cause quite a ruckus.

    I was play with the pimped version of the 2017 Edgar Markov EDH deck. I had Sangromancer on the battlefield.

    I attacked with 9 other vampires for lethal damage. My opponent had 4 1/1 soldier tokens that he chump blocked with, effectively negating lethal damage. However, before creature damage was dealt, I burned him for 3 life points, effectively rendering his blocks useless, and killing him.

    Here is the rub. He believes that at the point the damage is dealt, he is at "0" life and he dies. His creatures don't "die" but are simply "not there anymore", hence I don't get to gain a much needed 12 life.

    I think that he and his creatures die at the same time, and I get to drink the sweet nectar of life that is 12 life points.

    Who is right?

    Thanks in advance for any and ALL responses.
