Vampirism and Bleeding

[Shad0w]

It is simple. Vampirism heals. Healing can remove bleed. Thats it.

Correct healing effects will remove bleeds.

no, that's not where the ruling came from.

basically, my opponent had vampiric creatures out. I asked shadow if deathlock prevented vampirism. He said no, because while it heals it's not counted as healing so it gets around finite life. Which is why I then chose to not play the deathlock and played something else instead.

Then the Warlock played 2 Heal spells in one turn recovering a bunch of damage. He would have been dead the next turn had he not healed and I played the deathlock.

The wording I had at that time did not state it was a healing effect. I used the same documents for the entire event so everybody was subjected to the same rules.

Do to effects like reconstruct and the document I had on hand said remove damage not heal. Thus I have to stand by what I said.
