All damage that would be dealt to you and other permanents you control is dealt to this creature instead.
How it works : Palisade Giant
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Applying this redirection effect doesn’t change whether the damage is combat damage.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If you control more than one Palisade Giant, you choose which redirection effect to apply. You can’t divide damage dealt by one source. For example, if an attacking creature would deal 8 damage to you and you control two Palisade Giants, you may have that damage dealt to either of the Palisade Giants. You can’t have 4 damage dealt to each Giant or choose to have the 8 damage dealt to you.
