Indestructible vs. deathtouch

When a creature with deathtouch (say Acidic Slime) is blocked by a creature with indestructible (say Darksteel Myr), the creature with indestructible survives, right? This isn't mentioned either here or at Deathtouch. InThePeachGarden (talk) 15:51, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

compound fracture

I noticed that when I was attacking an enemy who applied https://scryfall.com/card/iko/103/unlikely-aid to a minion they were blocking with, they had 1 health and I applied my 1st Compound Fracture to it and this still killed it.

I think maybe indestructible prevents you from "destruction" in the sense of damage or death touch (as in previous section) but compound fracture must work differently, because it's actually lowering your max health to zero, even briefly, which causes them to die.

Easy enough to test out in a swamp v swamp match if anyone doubts. Tycio (talk) 03:36, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

If the toughness of a creature is reduced to 0, the creature is put into the graveyard. This is not a destruction or a damage effect so it gets passed indestructible. - Yandere-sliver (talk) 17:19, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
