In the Land of Redemption, Redoubter said that by putting an enhancement on Golgotha people in your territory and in battle gain cannot be ignored. My question is this: Is cannot be ignored a protect ability? In which case I wouldn't think that would work since the ignore would happen before the protect.
From the REG

Clarifications
The phrases “cannot be” and “may not be” and “prevented from being” mean the same as “protected from.” (Note: “may
not be” indicates a protect ability when it appears as its own phrase but not when it appear as part of a longer phrase such
as “may not be blocked by.” “Cannot be negated,” “cannot be prevented,” and “cannot be interrupted” are similar to
protect abilities but are not protect abilities. They each have their own special ability type defined elsewhere in this
document.)"

Cannot Be Ignored is actually its own ability, not a protect, and so it functions differently than a protect.. You can find a listing for it under Other Abilities in the REG.
Good question, because otherwise it would be a protect and you are correct that it would work very differently from what I showed in the video ;)

Thanks that makes sense. I was a bit confused about that, because my brother uses the Jacob/Torn clothes against me, and a few times I had golgotha but wasn't sure if I could use it. This is really helpful thanks.
