Indestructible: The Keyword Ability That Stops Destruction
What is Indestructible?
Indestructible is a static keyword ability that grants a permanent immunity to destruction. This means that spells, abilities, and combat damage cannot destroy a permanent with indestructible.
How Does Indestructible Work?
Indestructible is a blanket ability that applies to all sources of destruction. This means that a permanent with indestructible cannot be destroyed:
- By spells or abilities that target it
- By combat damage
- By effects that cause it to be sacrificed
- By effects that cause it to be exiled
The only way to remove indestructibility from a permanent is to use an effect that specifically removes keyword abilities, such as [[Disenchant]] or [[Revoke Existence]].
Why is Indestructible Important?
Indestructible is a powerful ability that can protect your permanents from destruction. This can be especially useful in multiplayer games, where other players may be trying to target your creatures or enchantments. Additionally, indestructible can help you to protect your planeswalkers from being attacked.
How to Get Indestructible
There are a number of ways to get indestructible on your permanents. Some creatures have indestructible as a natural ability, while others can gain it through spells or abilities. Additionally, there are a number of artifacts and enchantments that can grant indestructible to permanents.
Indestructible is a versatile ability that can be used to protect your permanents from a variety of threats. By understanding how indestructible works, you can use it to your advantage in your games of Magic: The Gathering.
