Corpse Cur rulings

2011-01-01
Infect’s effect applies to any damage, not just combat damage.
2011-01-01
The -1/-1 counters remain on the creature indefinitely. They’re not removed if the creature regenerates or the turn ends.
2011-01-01
A player who has ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action.
2011-01-01
Damage from a source with infect is damage in all respects. If the source with infect also has lifelink, damage dealt by that source also causes its controller to gain that much life. Damage from a source with infect can be prevented or redirected. Abilities that trigger on damage being dealt will trigger if a source with infect deals damage, if appropriate.
2011-01-01
If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a player is prevented, that player doesn’t get poison counters. If damage from a source with infect that would be dealt to a creature is prevented, that creature doesn’t get -1/-1 counters.

Corpse Cur keyword rules

Infect Rule 702.90

Infect is a static ability.

Damage dealt to a player by a source with infect doesn’t cause that player to lose life. Rather, it causes that source’s controller to give the player that many poison counters. See rule .

Damage dealt to a creature by a source with infect isn’t marked on that creature. Rather, it causes that source’s controller to put that many -1/-1 counters on that creature. See rule .

If an object changes zones before an effect causes it to deal damage, its last known information is used to determine whether it had infect.

The infect rules function no matter what zone an object with infect deals damage from.

Multiple instances of infect on the same object are redundant.
