proliferate and hexproof

Asked by Sagi007 12 years ago

would Witchbane Orb protect me from proliferate effects? im not realy sure it doesnt say target but it practically is needed.

If it doesn't say "target" it doesn't target. Witchbane Orb cannot protect you from proliferation, and hexproof will not protect any of your creatures.

Magic is a very word-specific game.

Proliferate reads:

"You choose any number of permanents and/or players with counters on them, then give each another counter of a kind already there."

As "Proliferate" does not "target" (its text does not have the word "target" specified), player(s)/creature(s) is/are not protected from Proliferate under Shroud nor Hexproof.
