Lich

{B}{B}{B}{B}

Enchantment

Limited Edition Alpha

Read rules for Lich
As this enchantment enters, you lose life equal to your life total. You don't lose the game for having 0 or less life. If you would gain life, draw that many cards instead. Whenever you're dealt damage, sacrifice that many nontoken permanents. If you can't, you lose the game. When this enchantment is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you lose the game.

how is this broken, other then your life remaining what it was when you play lich nothing changes, and that doesn't really matter since lich prevents you from gaining life or from dying if its lost.  The golem does not prevent damage, only changes to life, so if all this is in play and your hit with a lightning bolt , you don't lose life but you still sac 3 permanents

ad nausem will be sick with the golem, draw your entire library, the bob replacement will be some nice draw for black

One disenchant or naturalize will unbreak this. It will unbreak Toni Braxton's heart.

Ad Neaseum works a lot better. Lich doesn't do much.

question could you elect with emperion to pay an insane amount like a million and still pay 0 I was wondering if it prevents paying life or  weather it just drops it to zero

right now, we don't have the offical rulings so we can only go with whats on the card.  and the card says you can't pay any amount of life except 0, so a card life wall of blood can't be pumped and fire convent does nothing with the golem in play

And of the 2 new key words, one of them (infest) makes a creature deal damage in poison counters. With enough of those you life total may become less relevant than before for that block.
