Once Cindering Cutthroat has been blocked by a single creature, activating its last ability won't cause it to become unblocked.

Cindering Cutthroat's first ability cares whether an opponent lost life this turn, not how their life total changed. For example, an opponent who gained 2 life and lost 1 life in the same turn still lost life.
