Good in exalted. Let's you raise a shield before you decide who to attack with.

I one time cast a WhisperSilk Cloak with this on the field giving all my creatures shroud, and a small child ran into the room holding a boombox playing MC Hammer's "U can't Touch This" then ran out. Fun card, 5/5 if you ask me.
Also, always a fan of Martina Pilcerova's works, beautiful as always!

@NoobOfLore: Your every card is now vines of vastwood. I play a creature- giving all of my creatures troll shroud until end of turn, i play Jace's ingenuity giving all my creatures troll shroud, I play Prey's Vengeance giving all my creatures troll shroud for my next two turns.
No, if it said "...creatures you control gain hexproof" then cards like Sudden Spoiling would get rid of it. As it stands, ability loss has no effect on this card's use.
Likewise, this card would work in a Muraganda Petroglyphs deck. An errata'd version would not.

Lightning bolt, and my creatures are now hexproof.

This will probably eventually find its way into a competitive deck.

@armogohma Well as it stands MODO gives your creatures Hexproof when the ability resolves.

All you guys sort of get hexproof. Not bad for a 3-cost artifact. In cantrip control/burn build, this card could definitely put in work. Might be a likely too situational and "build around" for hardcore constructed, though. 4/5.
@ Zuty and Armogohma: The wording, in combination with the card's relative obscurity, make me think it's simply one of those rare (no pun intended) cards that slipped through the cracks and is overdue for errata. Just look at the wording...
Whenever you cast a spell, creatures you control can't be the targets of spells or abilities your opponents control this turn.
It's Vines of Vastwwod mixed with some odd, Mindslaver-like effect duration. The oracle text will likely read...
"Whenever you cast a spell, creatures you gain hexproof until end of turn."
Remember, applying Hexproof to the creatures can have unintended side effects. For example, lets say you cast Mind Control. In response to you casting a spell, Veilstone Amulet triggers. With its current wording, once Veilstone Amulet resolves the creature you steal will also be protected. However, if it simply granted Hexproof the creature you stole wouldn't be one you controlled when it resolved, meaning an opponent could do something to it should you attack with it or something.
More importantly, this isn't quite Hexproof, and it isn't an ability granting effect. It's a triggered effect that creates a status: Similarly to "creatures can't attack this turn" or "Players can't cast spells this turn."
I feel like I should be able to work this out but I'm stumped. If I have this out when I cast grizzly bears, can my opponents target that bear once it resolves? My confusion is because the ability triggers when you cast a spell so the ability resolves before the spell, so the creature isn't on the battlefield when the ability checks what creatures you control. But I'm not sure if the ability "catches up" and notices any additional creatures that come under your control?
