Prowess (Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.)
Afflict 2 (Whenever this creature becomes blocked, defending player loses 2 life.)

Afflict causes the defending player to lose life; it's not damage or combat damage.
(14/07/2017)
If multiple creatures block a creature with afflict, afflict triggers only once.
(14/07/2017)
Afflict resolves before combat damage is dealt. If this loss of life brings a player to 0 life or less, that player loses the game immediately. A blocking creature with lifelink won't deal combat damage in time to save that player.

If a creature is attacking a planeswalker, that planeswalker's controller is the defending player. If a creature is attacking a battle, that battle's protector is the defending player.
