Say you have a 2/2 with double strike and life link. Your opponent blocks it with a 1/1. Now the question that is popping up in our group is, does the second strike hit your opponent straight to the face and you gain 4 life? Or would you just kill the creature gain your 2 life and that's that?

Your attacking creature was blocked, so it wont deal combat damage to the player/planeswalker it is attacking unless it has Trample or a similar ability.

In your example, you would only gain 2 life.
