Ability overruled?

Asked by Bobby654 6 years ago

Here's what's going on. I'm planning on making jund -1/-1 counter deck. If I have Soul-Scar Mage out and I use Puncture Blast would that trigger soul scar's effect. or thanks to the wither Puncture Blast has on it Overrule soul scar?

Soul-scar replaces damage dealt altogether with -1/-1 counters. Damage modifying effects from the wither of Puncture Blast or Soulfire Grand Master will not apply, since they modify how damage is dealt, but with soul-scar, no damage is dealt.

End result is still 3 -1/-1 counters.
