How about "You may discard your hand, pay 5 life, rip this card, remove 3 digits from any number of target fingers you control, and concede at the end of the next end step rather than pay It Will Go Through!!'s mana cost.
Well, the OP may have been referring to limited, in which case yes this thing is pretty much a bomb in the right matchups. I always loved having free wins from spirit mantle in M12, and that was a format with more removal.

I will concede to this point. This card will win a lot of stalemated games.

I freely admit that I am not that great at evaulating cards. but I do think that in limited this will be good.

Does anyone know if holy mantle attached to palisade giant would allow him to absorb all damage dealt to him from other creatures you control, because despite the fact that the damage is dealt to other creatures you control and then dealt to him, the original damage was done by a creature and is therefore considered to be creature damage and therefore he has protection against it, basically then allowing you to swing out and not worry about taking damage to any creatures under your control

Yes, that would work. When damage is redirected, its source remains the same.
enchantment - aura
enchanted creature gets +2/+2 and protection from creatures
I can actually see this being used a good bit. It is a bit mana intensive for 4 mana, but that protection from creatures is rather good IMO.
what do others think?

In case Unquestioned Authority and Spirit mantle wasn't enough
This is going into my Uril deck as soon as I get a copy.
Speaking as someone who has an Uril EDH deck; no, no they are not. You can never have enough ways of making your Voltron General unblockable.

Christ, man; periods! They exist! Use them!
