If damage dealt by a creature with the ability granted by Sokrates's last ability can't be prevented for some reason, the appropriate players will still draw half that many cards, rounded down. (This won't come up often, but the unexamined ability is not worth activating.)
Ranked by shared capabilities, colour identity, mana value and type. Never by strategic judgement.
