So, this is more of a problem in limited than anything, but currently Tolarian Kraken's ability bypasses protection.

Opponent targeted my guy with ability, I feat in response and give my boi protection from blue. My guy was still tapped anyway. Normally I'd be like huh that's odd, but on magic online this is not the case. Protection will prevent the tap ability there.

I replicated the interaction vs sparky and it still was bypassing protection there, do there's that.

I submitted a bug report thru the website it directed me to, but are there any other ways to bring it to wizards attention quicker? Been several days and my report hasn't gotten an answer.

Thanks for the report! I've got it fixed in-dev now. The issue came from the "you may" - the "should we check for target revalidation now" code was accidentally requiring you to have already answered that question! #wotc_staff
