the revised Oracle test for Lifeline states: [QUOTE]"Whenever a creature dies, if another creature is on the battlefield, return the first card to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step."[/QUOTE]

it uses the keyword 'die' which means it only works if the creature went to the graveyard from the battlefield.

if the creature went from the battlefield to the graveyard, then it "died". doesn't matter what made it go there.

exile(like oblivion ring) is something completely different, it does not trigger "die" because the creature doesn't go to the graveyard, it goes to the exile zone.

great...thanks Seras,

I just needed a confirmation since I'm not so good in the rools and introducing new players in the magic MTG world it's not so easy without knoledge.

thanks again ;)
