    Simulacrum is the source of the damage. If an effect needs to know a characteristic of the damage's source, it will see the damage coming from Simulacrum.

    This is not damage prevention or redirection. It actually is life gain and newly dealt damage.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    You can't use Simulacrum on Loss of Life, just damage.
