Does protection cancel trample in Magic The Gathering?
Actually, trample damage does go through. A lot of players get this wrong. If your blocker has protection from the color of my trampling creature, I still assign lethal damage according to its toughness, and the rest punches through to hit your life points!

Protection does NOT cancel trample in MTG. If you block a creature with trample with a creature that has protection, the trample damage can still go through to you, the player. The attacking player just needs to assign enough damage to the blocking creature to 'kill' it (considering protection prevents that damage, though), and the rest spills over to you!
Nope, trample runs right over protection. You think your shiny, protected creature's gonna save you, but nope, here comes the trample train!
