8.5 Tails: Equipment with protection?

Asked by CptAzzi 2 years ago

I have a Situation that bugged me for a while now: I know that a creature with protection from white can't be equipped by white equipment (E.g. Godsend) But what happens if i have my Eight-and-a-Half-Tails equipped with a colorless equipment (E.g. Sword of Hearth and Home ), my opponent casts Disenchant on the sword and I give the sword protection from white? It will be protected from the Removalspell, but will it fall of my creature? When i looked up the rules,I only found the following:

702.16d A permanent with protection can’t be equipped by Equipment that have the stated quality or fortified by Fortifications that have the stated quality. Such Equipment or Fortifications become unattached from that permanent as a state-based action, but remain on the battlefield. (See rule 704, “State-Based Actions.”)

Thanks in Advance :)

No, the Equipment is not equipped by the creature, the creature is equipped by the Equipment. If the Equipment has protection from some property of the creature it's attached to, that won't make it fall off.
