Lets say your opponent swings with a Heap Doll and a Blazethorn Scarecrow.
{Declare Attack Heap Doll, Blazethorn Scarecrow}
You Block with your Boggart Arsonist
{Declare Blocker: Boggart Arsonist= Heap Doll}
Now there is a time to play Instants and Sorceries
{Player with Priority may play instant, Sorcery, Abilities, or anything with flash}
{Next Player may play Instants. Sorceries, Abilities, or Flash cards}
this is your time to sacrifice your Boggart Arsonist to destroy the Creature you are not blocking. The creature you are blocking takes no combat damage but does not deal any either because he is blocked by your dead boggart.

Magic the Gathering 1 can you tap out of Provoke 2 Also Embermage Goblin is provoked by Korisan Vorin EG taps does one damge before provoke untaps because of provoke can it tap again?
Provoke is an activated effect that triggers when the attack is declared. You may freely respond to this, or do things after resolution, but before the Declare Blockers step, which is where the provoked target must be declared as a blocker. So yes, it is perfectly legal to wait until Provoke untaps a creature, then tap it again through whatever means - making the provoked creature unable to be declared as a blocker. In the case of an untapped creature, it is almost the same. You may tap the Embermage Goblin in response to the Provoke trigger going on the stack. One damage will be dealt, then the Provoke trigger will resolve, untapping him. Before the Declare Blockers step, he can tap again to activate his ability, dealing a second point of damage, and stopping him from having to be declared as a blocker.
Can you attack a tapped creature in magic the gathering with an attack target creature card?
Creatures cannot be 'attacked' in Magic the Gathering. Players are attacked, and creatures are declared as blockers, although there are a few special abilities that can force things to attack or block. A tapped Planeswalker can be attacked, as per the usual rules for declaring attacks against Planewalker cards. Targeting a creature with a damage dealing spell or ability is not 'attacking' them. The creature being tapped has nothing to do with its targeting eligibility, it can still be targeted by cards that deal damage. Damage spells never target Planewalkers directly, the cards target the controlling player and the damage redirected to the Planeswalker from there. This can be done to a tapped Planeswalker.
What does deathtouch mean in magic the gathering?
Deathtouch is a static ability, like trample or flying, that reads, "When this creature deals damage to another creature, destroy the creature that was dealt damage." For example, if you have a 1/1 creature with deathtouch blocking an 8/8 creature, then your creature will deal 1 damage to the attacking creature, and vice versa. Your creature will die because it was dealt enough damage to kill it, but your opponent's creature will die as well. This ability also works when you are attacking or using an ability that deals damage to a creature, such as Pestilence Demon.
Can a creatures ability be used after it's been declared as a blocker?
Yes it can, unless it's an ability that can only be used at Sorcery speed. So you could block with a card that deals one damage to target player, tap it after being declared as a blocker, so even if it will be destroyed, you still get one use out of it.
In magic the gathering when you play the card vanquish does the attacking creature still receive combat damage?
No. The combat phase goes - declare attackers, declare blockers, deal damage, then cleanup, with a place to cast spells or activate effects in between each step.You use Vanquish after blockers have been declared. Because the blocker is no longer on the Battlefield, it does not deal damage in the damage dealing step. However since the attacker is still counted as being 'blocked', then unless it has Trample, it deals no damage either.
Is mycardis an alpha blocker?
No, Mycardis is not an alpha blocker, it is a receptor blocker.
Is telmisartan an alpha blocker?
No, Telmisartan is not an alpha blocker, it is a receptor blocker.
In Magic the Gathering what does 'trample' mean?
'Trample' allows a creature to deal damage to a player even it is blocked. When damage is dealt, it needs only assign 'lethal' damage to the blockers, the rest is dealt to the player. 'Lethal damage' is considered to be damage equal to the blocker's toughness, it does not take 'Protection' or 'Indestructable' into account. So take a situation where an 8/8 trampler is blocked by a 1/1 creature with indestructable, and a 1/1 creature who has protection from the colour of the attacker. The attacker can deal 1 damage to each, and the remaining 6 to the opponent, it doesn't matter that both creatures survive the 'lethal' damage. As a last note, a creature with both Trample and Deathtouch needs only deal a single point of damage to any blocker, regardless of toughness. So if that same creature above was blocked by two 3/3 creatures, it still can deal just one to each and the rest to the player. Without Deathtouch it would be forced to deal 3 to each, and only 2 to the player.
