Can you attack any creature in Magic The Gathering?

Nope, you can't directly attack creatures in MTG. Instead, you declare your attackers at your opponent or their planeswalkers, and then your opponent chooses if they want to block with their creatures. It's more about strategizing your attacks and defenses rather than picking off creatures one by one.

Short answer: No. You attack players or planeswalkers, not creatures. Opponents decide how to block with their creatures. Gotta think about the big picture strategy!

Actually, in a way, you can 'target' creatures indirectly. Use spells or abilities that say something like 'Deal 3 damage to any target.' So, while you can't attack creatures directly, you definitely can take them out. Just not with a regular attack.

Everyone's getting technical, but the gist is you're swinging at the player, not poking their dragons. Stick to spells if you wanna zap a creature.
