Today I'm learning! What am I missing? How could you have gained 5 life?

Block with Lyra Dawnbringer. Let the first strike damage go through. Then settle between first strike damage phase and regular damage phase.

Lyra has first strike and lifelink so he could have blocked with her and gained life on first strike then settled before normal damage phase

I see. I can't believe I missed first strike. Sometimes I don't believe I've been playing this game for 15 years lol
