Can metalcrafted Etched Champion be countered by a colored spell?

Asked by adugger 14 years ago

Pretty much explain int he title. Can someone throw down a colored counterspell to counter Etched Champion if you already have 3 artifacts down before you cast him. Counterspells target the spell and Etched Champion is the spell, so I assume not, but I am not completely sure.

yes etched champion can be countered be colored spells such as Mana Leak

because permanents only have protection while they are on the battlefield and nowhere else

Xeratheenigma is correct, protection functions only for permanents on the battlefeild. That said, Etched Chmpion is still one of my favortie cards from the ew set/ Who doesnt love protection from ALL COLORS? It's just ridiculousy cool. And really fun to pair with Phylactery Lich as in my deck phylacteretched-lichampions-commentsadvice
