Considering the Demon wipes out all small creatures on its way in, you should generate enough energy for at least one reanimation activation, if not more
The card should function like any other Devour 3 card in Magic: The Gathering
Otherwise, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature, then put the card back or put it into your graveyard.) If multiple creatures with lifelink you control deal combat damage at the same time, the damage dealt by each of those creatures is a separate life-gaining event and Amalia Benavides Aguirre's ability will trigger that many times
I like this card more than Vizier of the Menagerie because it decouples the creature from the card draw engine
The point is the freedom to choose whatever you want, and the necessity to pick something creates a novel experience, something that can change each time you use the card
We have no shortage of cards that trigger when you deal non-combat damage
