Rulings
One official ruling, as Wizards published it.
- 2017-09-29
The entering creature's toughness is determined as the ability of Verdant Sun's Avatar resolves. If that creature has left the battlefield, use its toughness as it last existed on the battlefield. If the creature's toughness was less than 0, your life total won't change.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
