Alseid of Life's Bounty + Gladecover Scout with auras attached

Asked by MorbidDrop 1 year ago

New Player: I know that Alseid of Life's Bounty causes aura cards on the selected card with matching color to the color chosen to provide protection from being removed, does this still apply because Gladecover Scout has hexproof? For example, if I sacrifice Life's bounty to give Gladecover scout protection from white and Sentinel's Eyes is attached to Gladecover Scout, does that card have to be discarded?

Fix, I meant to say "to be" instead of "from being"

Yes, the Aura would still go to the graveyard. Hexproof only prevents the permanent with hexproof from being targeted by anything your opponents control. It doesn't really have any interaction here.

“Protection from X“ prevents:

  • Damage from sources with X quality
  • Attaching the protected permanent with an Enchantment / Equipment / Fortification with X quality
  • Blocking the protected permanent with a creature with X quality
  • Targeting the protected permanent with spells or abilities with X quality

Some people like to use DEBT as an acronym to remember it by.
