Similarly, the power of the creature attacking you is checked only when MacCready’s second ability triggers. Once it triggers, the creature’s controller will lose 2 life and you’ll gain 2 life when the ability resolves, regardless of whether or not its power is still 4 or greater at that time or whether or not it’s still on the battlefield. - 2024-03-08 · Wizards of the Coast
