If you already have gravity well in play, when they attack with Victory, it turns the other creatures into flying with lifelink. With gravity well in play, it removes flying from all of them including VH but they would still have lifelink.

it's a bit more complicated than that though.

the attacker is the active player, so the herald's ability will go on the stack first, then the well's.

the well will resolve first, removing flying from all the attacking creatures, then the herald will resolve and the attacking creatures will gain flying.

what im having trouble with is will the well's ability trigger again since there are now attackers with flying, or can it only trigger once when the attackers are originally declared? ...but then we're still in the declare attackers' step?


if it was obvious, wouldn't have asked here =)

It triggers only once when attackers are declared.

To my understanding the creatures have to have flying when they've been declared attackers to be affected by gravity well.

Declare attackers step: 'Swinging' with x creatures that do NOT have flying. Triggers Herald.

After attacks have been declared: Attacking Creatures gain flying + lifelink.


Gravity well isn't state based, it doesnt make attacking creatures instantly lose flying, it only activates when they've been declared but since they didn't have flying at the time, it does nothing.
