X: Der Dunkle Sog fügt einer Kreatur oder einem Spieler Deiner Wahl X Schadenspunkte zu. Du kannst nur schwarzes Mana auf diese Art ausgeben. Du erhältst 1 Lebenspunkt für jeden Schadenspunkt, der auf diese Art zugefügt wird. Du kannst nicht mehr Lebenspunkte, als die Widerstandskraft der Kreatur beträgt oder als die Anzahl der Lebenspunkte des Spielers, dem mit dem Dunklen Sog Schaden zugefügt wurde, erhalten.

Oracle text (EN)

Sorcery

Spend only black mana on X. Drain Life deals X damage to any target. You gain life equal to the damage dealt, but not more life than the player's life total before the damage was dealt, the planeswalker's loyalty before the damage was dealt, or the creature's toughness.
