Rulings
Official rulings from Wizards of the Coast (1).
- 2009-10-01If a creature doesn’t have first strike, granting it first strike after combat damage has been dealt in the first combat damage step won’t prevent it from dealing combat damage. It will still assign and deal its combat damage in the second combat damage step.
