First strike

First Strike is a static ability that creates an additional combat damage step at the start of combat damage. A creature that has first strike will deal its damage before a creature without first strike.

For example if a 2/2 with first strike attacks and is blocked by a 2/2 without first strike. The 2/2 with first strike will take no damage as it's blocker takes lethal damage before it has a chance to apply it's damage.
