can some one help me out by explaining if i lower a creachers toughness and that creacher has indestructiblity. like for exp i have a card that makes one of the creatchers get negitive 3 negitive 3. does that destry that creatcher if that creacher has indestructiblity? I have looked up the rules for indestructible and destroy and they say that yes it would be going to the graveyard right?
701.6b The only ways a permanent can be destroyed are as a result of an effect that uses the word destroy or as a result of the state-based actions that check for lethal damage (see rule 704.5g) or damage from a source with deathtouch (see rule 704.5h). If a permanent is put into its owners graveyard for any other reason, it hasnt been destroyed.
702.12b A permanent with indestructible cant be destroyed. Such permanents arent destroyed by lethal damage, and they ignore the state-based action that checks for lethal damage (see rule 704.5g)

First of all, rules questions belong in the Q&A section, there's a header at the top of the page. Secondly, its "creature". Thirdly, yes, lowering its toughness to 0 or less with something like Tragic Slip will kill it, even if it has indestructible.
