- WotCOct 1, 2009
Inferno Elemental’s ability will trigger for each creature it blocks or becomes blocked by.
- WotCOct 1, 2009
The 3 damage that Inferno Elemental deals as a result of its ability is not combat damage. Inferno Elemental will still deal its combat damage as normal (unless all the creatures that blocked or were blocked by it have left the battlefield by the time the combat damage step begins).
