I have the basic premise down and how it's supposed to proceed, just not the right words (triggered ability instead of damage, distributing damage instead of declaring targets, ect) for it. =) | |

The damage will be dealt as part of the resolution of those abilities. (Distributing damage used to be used for combat damage - and note that this isn't combat damage! - and is used to describe spells like Rolling Thunder or Arc Lightning where one source is dealing damage to several targets, which also isn't the case here.) | |
| Feb 20, 2016 at 11:32 | comment | added | Cernunnos56 | Thank you! Ok. So from what I gather, what I'm trying to tell him is correct. He can distribute all the damage in the world to anything he wants, but until I have priority (whether he gives it to me or I receive it during the declare blockers step), the damage cannot resolve? And since they are all attacking at the same time I cannot have priority BEFORE he distributes (but before it resolves) all of the triggered damage. | |
