The art is very Dragonball Z-esque.

It is great to see Darrell Riche appear in a Magic card once more. I missed him after the Shadowmoor block.
Awesome art.

great to use against color combinations that can't readily handle enchantments, or don't utilize exiling. white exiles alot, green and white can destroy the enchantment no problem, and blue can always bounce and whatnot. this really shines against black, red or black/red. literally no way in standard for black or red to get rid of an enchantment, and all of their removal is destruction based/damage based.

If a Planeswalker has all it's counters removed, it's put in the graveyard as a state-based effect, and not destroyed. It would only shield the Planeswalker from cards that can destroy it, be either targeted permanent destruction, or mass permanent destruction, either not happening all too often.

In the art, what's really impressive is the attacker's aim.
No, seriously! The indestructible guy protected the ground underneath him, but not the ground even slightly to his left or right, or front or back. The only way this could happen is if the attack came from directly above -- not even at a slight angle -- and the attacker fired their devastating attack Straight down when they were perfectly above their target.
Not even Sephiroth can do that. Hell, not even real-life lightning bolts can do that.

@Kragash
You only ever have to assign lethal damage.
The game doesn't figure out that the damage isn't actually lethal until the assignment has happened.
Cannot be destroyed by damage and is unable to be assigned damage are two totally different things. Mostly that AFAIK the second one doesn't even exist.
Even in a protection from ***** scenario, say a pro green creature blocking a Terra Stomper, if the pro green guy was a 4/4, the stomper only needs to assign 4 damage to it, the other 4 can go to the defending player or planeswalker.
The actual damage step takes place after that, and that's when things would take lethal damage or not.

On creatures, it is green. But granting the ability, perhaps, is being flavored as white? Either way, I love it!

you can pay less for shield of oversoul but it only gives the Indestructible ability to green creatures and +1/+1

I love dropping one of these on Platinum Angel, putting a Whispersilk Cloak on it, and then another Indestructibiliy on the whispersilk.. Faced with having to remove two enchantments, one at a time, before they can even consider having a chance to win the game, most non-green decks just concede.
And yes, by the way, this is a very plausible scenario in my deck.

If you put it on a planeswalker it would prevent it from being destroyed from spells that say "destroy target permanent". but when it's loyalty counters drop to zero it's still sent to the graveyard. indestructibility states "an indestructible CREATURE can't be destroyed by damage" so creature attacks and burn spells can still kill it.
