Does trample damage roll over indestructibility?

does trample damage roll over indestrucibility?

indestructibility is "it can take any amount of lethal damage" is it not? so would trample damage go over?

Trample damage, after assigning what would be lethal damage, will just run right over the indestructibility and smack the defending player/planeswalker square in the face.

Yes, creatures with trample assign damage to the creature equal to it's toughness, then the rest goes on to the player or plainswalker thats been the assigned target of the attack.

Example,

A 1/1 and a 2/2 blocks a 8/8 trampling attacker.

The attacking creature assigns damage in any order to the 1/1 and the 2/2, then the rest of the damage is assigned to the controller.

Then the damage is dealt.

This is done during the damage step.

Hope this helps.
