Absolutely! Progenitus' "protection from everything" doesn't kick in until it's on the field. So, if you've got a counterspell, use it while Progenitus is still being cast. It's the perfect time to stop that behemoth in its tracks.

Yes, Progenitus can be countered like any other spell as it's being cast. Even though it has "protection from everything," this only applies when it's already on the battlefield. Counterspells work on Progenitus while it's still a spell on the stack, not yet in play. So go ahead, throw that "Counterspell" at it!

Hot take: why bother countering Progenitus when you can just play "Slaughter Pact" or "Path to Exile" after it lands? It's more fun to let your opponent think they've won for a second.

Nope. Once Progenitus hits the field, its "protection from everything" is in full effect. But that's the catch - it has to hit the field first. Counter it while you can, or you're in for a world of pain.
