You Live Only Because I Will It is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
When you set this scheme in motion, you may redistribute any number of life totals. (Each affected player or team gets one of those life totals back.)
How it works : You Live Only Because I Will It
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
You choose which player or team gets which life total when the ability resolves.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
In a game with shared life totals (such as a game of Commander Archenemy), each team has a single life total.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
When life totals are redistributed, each player gains or loses the amount of life necessary to equal the other player's life total. For example, if one player has 10 life and the other has 17 life, the first player gains 7 life and the other one loses 7 life. Replacement effects may modify these gains and losses, and triggered abilities may trigger on them.
No other card is named in this ruling.
