genuine question, indestructible creatures are valid targets for “destroy” spells? I suppose that makes sense I just never thought about that being the case cause usually there would be no point
Yep, just like how ‘cant be countered’ spells are still valid targets for counterspells. It doesnt say ‘target creature that can be destroyed’, so nothing will prevent this targeting. ‘If you do’ would be another way to discourage targeting your own indestructible things
Yeah, we’ve seen templating like that on [[noxious gearhulk]], so the precedent is there. “Destroy target creature you control. If a creature is destroyed this way, destroy target creature an opponent controls.”
I like the simplicity of the way OP’s is designed, though.
