Now within striking range of the grand paladin, Daniel decided to take a gamble and rely on the power of his artifact cards, specifically the 'Hourglass of Eternity.' He charged forward, wielding his combat knives, which, if the game mechanics held true in reality, would be considered Artifact Equipment. The 'Hourglass of Eternity' bestowed protection upon all noncreature permanents, ensuring they would not be destroyed or exiled.
"Fool!" The Grand Paladin sneered with disdain, his voice dripping with contempt, before swinging down the sacred blade in his left hand towards Daniel.
Clank!
"What!?" The scene that unfolded before the grand paladin was nothing short of incredulous. Daniel's knives, held firmly in his hands, successfully intercepted the full-power swing of the sacred blade without even a scratch.
