Oblivion ring vs hexproof

Asked by Thatfatmummy 9 years ago

Can Oblivion Ring exile a creature with hexproof?

I'd love to hear a ruling on this please.

Hexproof prevents any spell or ability that an opponent controls from targeting the permanent. Oblivion Ring has a triggered ability that goes off when it enters the battlefield, forcing you to TARGET another nonland permanent. Since Hexproof prevents only opponents from targeting it, you can exile your own permanents with Hexproof, but no one else's. As far as rulings go, just check the reminder text on cards such as Gladecover Scout .
