Applications of "can't be regenerated."

Asked by dude1818 13 years ago

Two questions, really. Say I control a Thrun, the Last Troll and choose to regenerate it. Once his ability has resolved, I cast Wrath of God . Is Thrun destroyed? If I control a Mossbridge Troll , is it destroyed?

Comprehensive rules:

701.11. Regenerate

     701.11a If the effect of a resolving spell or ability regenerates a permanent, it creates a replacement effect that protects the permanent the next time it would be destroyed this turn. In this case, Regenerate [permanent] means The next time [permanent] would be destroyed this turn, instead remove all damage marked on it and tap it. If its an attacking or blocking creature, remove it from combat.

701.11b If the effect of a static ability regenerates a permanent, it replaces destruction with an alternate effect each time that permanent would be destroyed. In this case, Regenerate [permanent] means Instead remove all damage marked on [permanent] and tap it. If its an attacking or blocking creature, remove it from combat.

701.11c Neither activating an ability that creates a regeneration shield nor casting a spell that creates a regeneration shield is the same as regenerating a permanent. Effects that say that a permanent cant be regenerated dont prevent such abilities from being activated or such spells from being cast; rather, they prevent regeneration shields from having any effect.

So, both yes Thrun, the Last Troll and Mossbridge Troll will still die.
