I'm pretty sure I know the answer I'll get with this one, but I figured it would be worth asking.
When Death from Above is cast on Dread Wolf, should Dread Wolf gain 1 attack? Here's the potential reasoning. The term "kill" has now been defined as "deals enough damage to reduce HP to zero." If Dread Wolf is the one dealing that damage, it would have to be in combat as he has no way to deal ability damage. Therefore, Dread Wolf's attack must be temporarily changed to "enough to reduce opposing ally's HP to zero" and then switched back at the end, except he should theoretically gain 1 attack at that point.
Answer that I think I'll get: DfA deals ability damage through the ally, temporarily giving it a way to deal ability damage in place of combat damage.
I would be okay with this answer, too, but I thought it'd be worth a shot.
