Hexproof protects your key creatures from targeted removal, making it ideal for Voltron strategies that load up one creature with Auras and Equipment. Remember it does not stop board wipes, sacrifice effects, or damage that does not target, so diversify your protection. Opponents are often forced to use non-targeted answers, which can buy you tempo.

FAQ

Can I target my own Hexproof creature?
Yes. Hexproof only prevents your opponents from targeting it, so you can still cast Auras, pump spells, and abilities on your own Hexproof permanent.
Does Hexproof protect against board wipes?
No. Effects that destroy all creatures or deal damage to everything do not target, so Hexproof offers no protection against them.
