Official rulings
- This is not damage prevention or redirection. It actually is life gain and newly dealt damage. (2004-10-04)
- You can't use Simulacrum on Loss of Life, just damage. (2004-10-04)
- 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. (2008-08-01)
