Protection and Enchantments

Asked by BrownDog5117 14 years ago

Let's say I have a Kor Spiritdancer equipped with a Spider Umbra . Then, let's say I want to equip my Sword of Body and Mind to it. Will the auras fall off because my Kor Spiritdancer is now pro green? OR Will it just prevent future green enchantments from enchanting it?

702.14c A permanent or player with protection cant be enchanted by Auras that have the stated quality. Such Auras attached to the permanent or player with protection will be put into their owners graveyards as a state-based action. (See rule 704, State-Based Actions.)

Basically, once the Sword is equipped the Umbra 'falls off' and goes to the graveyard as a state-based action. The same is true of equipment (e.g. something equipped with Mage Slayer receiving either pro red or pro green), except the equipment is just unattached, it is not sent to the graveyard.
