How it works : Serra Ascendant

- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If Serra Ascendant is dealt damage at the same time that you gain life (most likely because it dealt combat damage to a creature blocking or blocked by it), and your life total becomes 30 or greater, apply its last effect before considering whether or not the damage dealt to it is lethal.
No other card is named in this ruling.
