A creature gaining flying after it has been blocked by a creature without flying or reach won't remove the blocking creature from combat or cause the creature it blocked to become unblocked.
(03/05/2019)
If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Desperate Lunge tries to resolve, the spell doesn't resolve. You don't gain 2 life.
