@raverboy112 - SolidSoldier and subsequently Jedijoe are both right.
Pro something means it cannot be targeted by spells or abilities of the appropriate protection, blocked (in most cases at least, except such cases when a creature is put into play already blocking, such as one from the new schemes in archenemy.) and all damage dealt to it would be prevented with exception of other rare cases such as me attacking with an Excruciator and you block it with Akroma, it would kill the Akroma even though she has pro red. Mass removal though, does not deal damage, nor does it target, thus getting around protection and killing Akroma, if in fact the Reiver Demon was cast from a player's hand. xD
Yay bandwagons! also, it's spelled geniuses**

Not all angels are touchy-feely. Akroma was created to avenge Ixidor's wife. This art very much conveys that aspect of "killing machine," perhaps more than the seven keywords do. She's the Angry Lady, Magic's own Terminator. The new art does a great job showing us that.

One of the best creatures ever printed. I have a play mat with this artwork on it and it looks amazing.

As overrated as this card is as far as utility, there's no denying its beauty and excellent design. This is the epitome of what an 8 mana creature should be.
