@UbdU01: I believe it should have had its ability errataed to lifelink, since the life gain triggers on any damage, not just combat damage.
@Milliman: Yes, Mourning Thrull's life-stealing ability does in fact stack with lifelink, because it doesn't really have lifelink. So yeah, if you enchant it with Lifelink, you'd gain twice the damage dealt as life. However be careful - Mourning Thrull's life-stealing ability is a triggered ability, which means that it goes on the stack, as opposed to the static lifelink ability. This means two things: First off, your opponent can counter it with effects such as Stifle, and secondly, as opposed to with the lifelink ability, you won't get the life the instant the Thrull deals damage. If your Thrull is 100/1, you're at 1 life (with only the Thrull on the battlefield), and your opponents attacks you with 2 1/1 creatures, you'd die because your life goes to 0 before you gain the life from the Thrull's a... (see all)

It did, but Wizards changed the wording of lifelink with the latest core set, and it was changed back to it's old wording.

This would be fun to mix in with older thrull cards.

My Orzhov deck prefers this to Vault Skirge. Edge of the Divinty is nice enough, but Deathbringer Liege just makes everything that much better.

@Test-Subject_217601:
No, this is not strictly better than Bog Imp, because Bog Imp doesn't die to Deathmark or Combust or Ignite Disorder, or ping you with a Rain of Gore in play.
