@PrismFalcon:
When attackers are declared, Mage Slayer's ability triggers and goes on the stack. Players get priority, and finally this ability resolves. So the creature equipped with Mage Slayer deals damage from this ability even before blockers are declared. The damage from Mage Slayer's ability is not combat damage, but the creature still deals combat damage normally during the combat damage step.

This card is awesome, i like to use it to boost my Petrified Wood-Kin. Does the ability trigger multiple times if more than one is equiped on a single creature?

@ DlCK

Yes, you would gain the life from Lifelink. Lifelink does not specify combat damage, but any damage dealt by a creature with Lifelink will cause you to gain life (rules 118.3e & 702.13b).

There are two kinds of people in the world: Those that call this Mage Masher, and those that haven't played Final Fantasy.

Does this mean that it deals damage before combat starts? Does that count as combat damage? Or is it dealing combat damage as if it isn't blocked? I can think of a few combos based on not dealing or recieving combat damage, so I need to know which one it is.

throw this and an armadillo cloak on uril, the mistalker and you have one hell of a creature. wrap it up with some more auras and a behemoth's sledge, and by then the game is won.
