You can't lose the game due to having 0 or less lifeLock

How it works

  1. While you have zero or less life, Phyrexian Unlife causes all damage to be dealt to you to become infect damage.
  2. Solemnity prevents you from getting poison counters due to infect damage.

This elegant lock relies on a clever intersection between prevention and replacement effects to render you virtually immune to life loss and combat damage. While Phyrexian Unlife normally creates a dangerous path to defeat by converting damage into poison counters once your life total drops to zero or below, Solemnity completely shuts that vulnerability down by ensuring no counters of any kind can ever be placed on you. Together, these two enchantments create a state where your life total can plummet indefinitely without ever threatening your survival or accumulating the poison counters that would otherwise spell your doom.
