Does the blasphemous act get around protection?

Yes, for creatures with Protection from Red, Blasphemous Act does not get around their protection because it deals damage, which protection prevents (using the {D}E{B}{T} acronym: Damage, Enchant/Equip, Block, Target). However, Blasphemous Act will destroy creatures with protection from everything else because it doesn't target them and uses damage, so protection from other colors or spells won't save them unless they also have "Protection from Red" or are Indestructible.

Does indestructible survive the blasphemous act?

Yes, indestructible creatures survive the initial resolution of Blasphemous Act because it deals 13 damage, but they still take the damage and will die immediately after if they lose their indestructibility, as damage isn't removed until the end of turn, leading to a deadly second check of State-Based Actions where they'll have lethal damage.

Why would I want shroud over hexproof?

Hexproof means that "your opponents" can not target that permanent, so it is a one- sided effect that gives you so much value ('cause you can target it). Shroud means that "no one" can target that permanent, not even you, so it is a kind of universal protection from targeting.

Does Shroud stop destroying all creatures?

No, Shroud does not protect against "destroy all creatures" effects like {!nav}Wrath of God, because these spells don't use the word "target"; they affect every creature, so they bypass Shroud and Hexproof entirely, killing even shrouded creatures unless they have Indestructible or Protection. Shroud only stops spells/abilities that specifically name a creature as a "target," not global effects or sacrifices.

Does the blasphemous act target?

Blasphemous Act doesn't target. It doesn't even say "target" anywhere on the card. You can use Rootha to copy it, if you want, in which case you will have two instances of dealing 13 damage to every creature on the battlefield, for a total of 26 damage to everything on the battlefield.

Does Hexproof stop the blasphemous act?

No, Hexproof does not stop Blasphemous Act because the spell deals 13 damage to each creature, making it a global effect that doesn't target individual creatures, and Hexproof only prevents targeting by opponents' spells and abilities. While Hexproof won't save your creatures, effects like Indestructible (which blocks damage/destruction) or Protection from Red (which blocks damage from red sources) will protect them from Blasphemous Act.

Does indestructible stop trample?

No, Indestructible, does not stop Trample from working; the attacking creature must still assign lethal damage to the indestructible blocker (equal to its toughness), but any damage beyond that simply tramples over to the player or planeswalker, as Indestructible only prevents the blocker from being destroyed, not from taking the damage or fulfilling the criteria for Trample.

Does darksteel forge make itself indestructible?

Yes, Darksteel Forge makes itself indestructible because its ability says "Artifacts you control have indestructible," which includes the Forge itself, granting it the keyword ability. This means it won't be destroyed by damage or "destroy" effects, allowing you to keep your other artifacts safe too, though it can still be removed by effects that exile, return to hand, or reduce toughness to zero.

Can you give a planeswalker Deathtouch?

No, standard Deathtouch doesn't work directly on Planeswalkers because it's a creature ability meant for destroying other creatures, but it can work if the Planeswalker becomes a creature (e.g., through Sarkhan's ability) or if specific cards grant Deathtouch damage to a Planeswalker's loyalty, like Vraska, Swarm's Eminence, allowing one damage to be lethal. Normally, a Deathtouch creature just needs to deal its combat damage (even 1) to a Planeswalker, removing that many loyalty counters, but only special effects make that 1 damage count as lethal for the Planeswalker itself.

Is hexproof or shroud better?

Shroud and Hexproof both protect permanents from being targeted by spells or abilities, but the key difference is who can't target them: Shroud means NO ONE, including you, can target the permanent; Hexproof means only your opponents can't target it, allowing you to target it with your own spells (like enchantments, equipment, or combat tricks). Shroud is more restrictive (universal protection), while Hexproof offers more strategic flexibility for the controller.

Do auras fall off with shroud?

No, giving a creature Shroud doesn't make attached Auras fall off; Shroud only prevents targeting, but Auras fall off if the enchanted permanent gains Protection from the Aura's color or quality, or if it becomes an illegal target (like an enchantment becoming a creature). Shroud stops new Auras from being cast onto the shrouded creature, but doesn't affect those already attached, while Protection actively removes them as a state-based action.

Do board wipes work against shroud?

Neither keyword will protect against a board wipe like Wrath of God, for example, no matter who casts it. You'll notice that MTG rules handle “targeting” very specifically: The effect needs to literally spell out “target”. Neither shroud nor hexproof protect from effects that use a different wording.

Can I be attacked if I have hexproof?

Yes, a player with hexproof can still be attacked in combat because attacking doesn't target the player; hexproof only stops an opponent's spells or abilities from specifically targeting the hexproof player (or creature). You can't be hit by "Lightning Bolt," but you can be attacked by a creature with trample, and damage can still go through to you if unblocked or if the blocker can't stop it.
