About Lich

Lich, Enchantment, designed by Daniel Gelon first released in Aug, 1993 in the set Limited Edition Alpha and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 526.06. It's a key card in 3 combos.

A deck that focuses on card draw and life manipulation would benefit from using Lich in Magic: the Gathering. This card can be powerful in a deck that can consistently draw cards to offset the life loss and take advantage of the unique abilities it offers. However, due to its high mana cost and risky nature, it may not be optimal in competitive play compared to other more efficient cards that offer similar effects with less downside.

Rules

01/01/11

The last ability will cause you to lose the game even if you somehow manage to have a life total greater than 0 at the time the Lich is put into the graveyard or if some other effect would prevent you from losing for having 0 life. If, on the other hand, some effect such as that from Platinum Angel says that you can’t lose the game then even the last ability of the Lich cannot cause you to do so. The ability will just resolve and the game will continue as normal.

08/15/10

The last ability will cause you to lose the game even if you somehow manage to have a life total greater than 0 at the time the Lich leaves the battlefield or if some other effect would prevent you from losing for having 0 life. If, on the other hand, some effect such as that from Platinum Angel says that you can’t lose the game then even the last ability of the Lich cannot cause you to do so. The ability will just resolve and the game will continue as normal.

10/04/04

If an opponent steals control of Lich, their life total does not change. The life total changes for a player only when it enters the battlefield under that player’s control.

10/04/04

If you have multiple Lich cards on the battlefield, you must sacrifice a permanent for each damage done to you for each Lich. This is because the sacrifice is a triggered ability. But you only draw one card for each life gained regardless of how many Liches you have. This is because the draw is a replacement effect and not a triggered one. You lose if any one of the Liches leaves the battlefield.

10/04/04

You can’t pay life, just like any player at less than one life can’t pay life. You can pay zero life if you want.
