UnCommander Rulings

If the target creature has been dealt lethal damage, but has less combat damage than its toughness marked on it, Snake Bite’s effect will not trigger.

A creature only needs to have more damage marked on it than its toughness to trigger Snake Bite’s effect; it doesn’t need to be put into a graveyard. A creature that has indestructible or regenerates will still count.

If the target creature is destroyed by an effect and has not received lethal damage, Snake Bite’s effect does not trigger.

Damage dealt by sources with infect and/or wither do not mark damage on creatures, just put counters on them, so will not trigger Snake Bite’s effect.
