Yea, C'mon and hit me. I dare ya LOLOLOLOL

great card but definitely not something to drop on turn two. If your opponent only has junk on their side of the board, you won't trade favorably. I like dropping him late game against their fatty

Hello there.
I watned to ask if I can rescue this creature from dying with Cloudshift (exile target permanent and return) so that the Priest's ability resolves.
Example: i block a 2/2 creature with Priest. I got Cloudshift on my hand an white mana to cast it. Is there a way to cast Cloudshift so that the ability resolves and i destroy a permanent and rescue the Priest from dying. I analised that and on the one hand i think NO cuz the damage is dealt, ability tiggers and simultanously the creature dies (no time to cast cloudshift). But on the other hand tiggered abilities create stack, so i could possibly cast cloudshift, exile and return Priest so it wouldnt die (but would the ability resolve and i destroy a permanent or does it leave the stack cause the source of the ability is not in the game).
To sum up is there a way to destroy a pernament with Priest and make it stay in game using cloudshift in case it recieves ex. 2 combat or ex. shock damage?
Pleae respond... (see all)

@SnoopekPL: No.
If he is dealt lethal damage, he will die immediately as a state-based action, before anything else can happen. After that, his ability will go on the stack, even though he is already dead. After that players will have a chance to respond. Nothing can happen between him being dealt lethal damage and him being put in the graveyard, unless it is a part of the spell or ability that dealt him damage.

This guy plus Indestructibility makes for an awesome blocker.

I feel like this guy + the newly spoiled Athreos, God of Passage will be a good combination.

My ideal situation would be chump blocking with it while having an Athreos and a Xathrid Necromancer on field. Yes, I would like to destroy your nonland permanent, deal 3 damage to you and gain a token.
