Creature - Drake 3/3, 1U (2) Flying When Gilded Drake comes into play, choose one - sacrifice Gilded Drake; or exchange control of Gilded Drake and target creature an opponent controls. If you can't make the exchange, sacrifice Gilded Drake. This ability can't be countered. (This effect doesn't end at end of turn.)1 Buyer beware.
Illus. Bob Eggleton
This effect is targeted, so Protection from Color will prevent targeting if Protection from Color exists when the ability would be announced. Once the ability is on the stack, adding Protection from Color will not counter the ability but the exchange will not take place since the target is illegal and you sacrifice this card on resolution.

If the chosen creature to exchange is not in play at resolution, then sacrifice this card. [D'Angelo 2000/01/16]
