Wouldn't it read 'Prevent all damage dealt by creatures without Vigilance.'?

Thanks for your feedback. Well, that's not exactly the same in fact. You suggest changing the effect to a damage prevention, that could be bypassed by a card like Flaring Pain or Excruciator. Why not. However I dislike turning "tapped creature" into "creature without vigilance". It doesn't have the "same taste"

Plus with the current wording, you can't do combat shenanigans by tapping a creature while it's blocking to do some effect. Otherwise the creature blocking will deal no damage.

Awesome design, love it!

Usually I have at least one suggestion, but this thing seems perfect as-is. Great flavor, feels very white and angelic, and seems fairly costed as well.

I like it but there are a few flaws

I like it but there are a few flaws

for example ?

My first design of the card was:

Archangel of Eons of
Creature - Angel
Flying, Vigilance.
Tapped creatures deals no combat damage.
: tap or untap target creature.
6/6

Whats the point of saying tapped creatures deal no combat damage?

[fallenonme]

It messes with combat shennanigans. I can't block and tap in response and still have my creature Deal Damage.

Ok then I guess so but wouldn't damage be dealt before it taps or does it tap as it blocks
