Spirit Mantle and Turn to Frog

Asked by Coopers_Disciple 6 years ago

My creature is wearing Spirit Mantle. Opponent casts Turn to Frog and blocks it. Does Turn to Frog nullify my Spirit Mantle's Protection from Creatures?

Yes, it does. Because the ability-removing effect of Turn to Frog has a more recent timestamp than the ability-granting effect of Spirit Mantle, the protection from creatures ability gets removed. It will come back when Turn to Frog wears off at the end of the turn.

According to the interaction rules i found. Yes your creature lose Protection from creatures"If an enchantment aura says "Enchanted creatured gains " then Turn from Frog will remove that ability until the end of the turn, even though it's still enchanted, you apply the effects in timestamp order, so in the case of your frogged creature enchanted with flight - it loses flying until end of turn. But an enchantment that does something to the enchanted creature itself rather than giving the ability to the creature still works, like Firebreathing or any enchantment that adds power/toughness."
