Sigil of Protection (Red)

Ward is a static ability that generates a fixed-prevention effect.

The prevention effect is not optional. It applies whenever damage would be dealt to your hero.

If another prevention effect reduces a damage event to 0, the replacement condition is no longer met (damage would not be dealt), so Ward would not apply.

The prevention amount applies to a single damage event. The leftover prevention amount does not apply to any future damage that would be dealt to your hero.

If the damage prevention can not be applied due to an effect, the object with Ward on it is still destroyed as part of the replacement effect application.
