Witch of the Moors rulings

2020-06-23
The triggered ability triggers just once, no matter how much life you've gained.
2020-06-23
You don't have to choose a target creature card at all. If you do and the target card is an illegal target by the time the ability tries to resolve, the ability won't resolve. Your opponents won't sacrifice creatures.
2020-06-23
As the triggered ability resolves, first the next opponent in turn order chooses a creature they control, then each other opponent in turn order does the same knowing the choices made before them. Then all the chosen creatures are sacrificed at the same time.
2020-06-23
If you haven't gained life by the time your end step begins, the triggered ability won't trigger at all.
2020-06-23
The triggered ability looks at whether you've gained life in the turn, even if Witch of the Moors wasn't on the battlefield when you gained life. It doesn't care if you also lost life, even if you lost more life than you gained.

Witch of the Moors keyword rules

Deathtouch Rule 702.2

Deathtouch is a static ability.

A creature with toughness greater than 0 that’s been dealt damage by a source with deathtouch since the last time state-based actions were checked is destroyed as a state-based action. See rule 704.

Any nonzero amount of combat damage assigned to a creature by a source with deathtouch is considered to be lethal damage for the purposes of determining if a proposed combat damage assignment is valid, regardless of that creature’s toughness. See rules –d.

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

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

Multiple instances of deathtouch on the same object are redundant.
