A hand holding up a deck of cards, the first card is Indestructible Aura from Magic the Gathering
Got my dad some old mtg cards on ebay for his 50th
It’s official, and classic! The first few years, there were not really any guidelines; the artist was given the name of the card (and its color, I think) to illustrate, and that’s it.
New players: “It doesn’t grant Indestructible, and it’s not an Aura!”
You can buy a print from the artist at least https://markpoole.com/products/indestructible-aura?srsltid=AfmBOorCxaUy2DTXp2QYz1DoCASwaFWnd9VUYzRojghmqaxWhJZ5LCEt
There were white creatures that could redirect any damage to that creature.
I remember discovering a paradox where both players were motivated to redirect damage to their own respective creatures (Albatrosses were involved) and could indefinitely.
I think WoTC was first rude about the paradox and later created some hard-to-interpret rules about conflicting recursions.
