Counters vs. Protection
Asked by the-lavender-shadows 2 years ago
Hello all, I would like help with a specific question! For some context: If I put a card on the field that gives my artifacts protection from artifacts, I know that I cannot equip an artifact onto an artifact creature and any equipment that were on it would just 'fall off'. However in a different scenario, if I assign indestructibility counters given from an enchantment onto the field first, and THEN I play a protection from let's say enchantments...do those counters 'fall off' like the equipment? Or do those counters stay on the artifact creature because they are already incorporated on the card and don't behave like artifact - equipment? I hope I explained this well, all help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Once counters are placed on an object, they have no memory of where they came from, and are indistinguishable from other counters of the same type. Granting protection from enchantments won't remove counters added by Ordeal of Heliod , but it will remove the blessing itself.
