Legalities
Rulings
  • 2016-07-13 If the creature becomes an illegal target for Certain Death, no player gains or loses life. If it's a legal target but isn't destroyed, most likely due to having indestructible, its controller still loses 2 life and you gain 2 life.
  • 2016-07-13 The targeted creature will have already left the battlefield before its controller loses 2 life and you gain 2 life. If it has any abilities that care about gaining or losing life, they won't apply.
