Behavior
  • What is the problem?

When a creature with protection from color is attacked by a trample creature that has more power than the protected creature's toughness, the creature with protection dies and the Planeswalker takes half the damage of the attacking creature.

As a concrete example, I was had a stonecoil serpent (6/6) out against an enemy aetherwind basker (8/8). My serpent had protection from green, and the basker was green.

Battle log shows my serpent taking 6 damage, and my Planeswalker taking 4.

The serpent should have taken half (4) damage from the basker, and should have lived, which should have prevented it from trampling.
