Lifelink

Lifelink is a new name for an existing ability (as seen on cards such as Exalted Angel). The rules for lifelink are as follows:

502.68. Lifelink

502.68a Lifelink is a triggered ability. "Lifelink" means "Whenever this permanent deals damage, you gain that much life."

502.68b If a permanent has multiple instances of lifelink, each triggers separately.

• The ability triggers whenever a permanent with lifelink deals any damage, not just combat damage.

• All older cards with this exact ability will be receiving errata to change that ability to lifelink.

• Note that the card Spirit Link does not grant the creature it enchants lifelink. The lifelink ability has the creature's controller gain life. Spirit Link has Spirit Link's controller gain life.
