Magic cards duel. Noncombat damage resolution.?
You have 3 Arch Druids (4/4 each currently) in play. You have Nissa's Chosen (currently 5/6 ) in play as well.
I earthqake for 4 damage. I believe all the Arch Druids go immediatly to the graveyard. As this is noncombat damage your Nissa's Chosen will also go to the graveyard. Damage remains after the the Arch Druids have gone to the graveyard the Nissa's Chosen will die after the increase from the Arch Druids has left play.
Is my assumption correct?

You had 3 Elvish Archdruids out, along with a Nissa's Chosen.
You cast Earthquake, dealing 4 damage to all.
The Archdruids go because they only have 3 Toughness (The Archdruids don't pump themselves), while the Nissa's chosen takes 4 Damage, as it is currently a 5/6.
Because damage is a separate value from Toughness, it will stay on the creature. Because Nissa's Chosen took 4 damage, and no longer has the pump from the Archdruids, it will be put into a graveyard (and back to the Library.)
