Protection from creatures and Awakening sun's avatar?
Asked by manbearpig01 5 years ago
If I have a creature with Holy Mantle on it and someone casts Wakening Sun's Avatar is it prevented since it's a creature destroying?
Protection protects from these things, handily remembered by the acronym DEBT. A creature with protection from X cannot be:
Damaged by X
Equiped/Enchanted by X
Blocked by X
Targeted by X
Wakening Sun's Avatar does none of the above - it destroy all non-dinos without targeting them, so protection will not do anything prevent it.

No. Protection prevents 4 things:
Damage - A creature with Holy Mantle cannot be damaged by creatures.
Equipping/enchanting - Not relevant with Holy Mantle, but White Knight can't be enchanted with Unholy Strength.
Blocked - A creature with Holy Mantle cannot be blocked by creatures, which is to say it cannot be blocked.
Targeted - A creature with Holy Mantle cannot be targeted by abilities of creatures (like Shriekmaw's ability).
As Wakening Sun's Avatar's ability doesn't target or deal damage, it's not effected by protection.
