Can you flicker during combat to avoid damage in MTG?
Absolutely, you can flicker a creature during combat to avoid damage! Flickering refers to exiling a card and then returning it to the battlefield immediately after. This can be super handy during combat because when the creature comes back, it’s considered a new object with no damage on it, and importantly, it's no longer attacking or blocking. So, if you have a spell or ability that flickers, you can use it to dodge incoming damage, save your creature from a deadly combat, or simply reset its abilities.

No way, that's just dodging. Real players don't need to flicker to avoid damage. Face it head-on!
Yep, flicker it right out of there! Just remember it’s all about timing. Do it before the damage step, or it won’t work.
