Cradle of Vitality

Cradle of Vitality {3}{W}

Enchantment
Whenever you gain life, you may pay {1}{W}. If you do, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature for each 1 life you gained.
Naya's trees grow tall and sturdy. Their foliage intertwines to form dewcups, rainwater pools where the elves gather to celebrate life.

Rulings
  • 2008-10-01 Cradle of Vitality triggers just once for each life-gaining event, whether it's 1 life from Deathgreeter or 8 life from Soul's Grace. You pay the cost just once, but the targeted creature will get a number of counters equal to the amount of life you gained.
  • 2008-10-01 You choose a target when the ability triggers. You don't choose whether to pay {1}{W} until the ability resolves.
  • 2014-02-01 If multiple creatures you control with lifelink deal damage simultaneously, each instance is a single life-gain event and the ability will trigger separately for each of them.
