This card, Vengeful Archon, would benefit a control deck that focuses on protecting itself while also dealing damage to the opponent. While it can be a strong choice in certain situations, there are potentially better options available such as Teferi, Time Raveler or Lyra Dawnbringer which offer more versatile abilities and impact on the game. Overall, Vengeful Archon could see play in specific decks that can fully utilize its abilities, but it may not be a top-tier choice in competitive play.

Rules

08/15/10

If the amount of damage that would be dealt to you is in excess of the amount of damage that Vengeful Archon’s ability would prevent, that source deals its excess damage to you at the same time that the rest of it is prevented. Then Vengeful Archon deals its damage.

08/15/10

If Vengeful Archon’s ability prevents damage, Vengeful Archon deals its damage immediately afterward as part of that same prevention effect. This happens before state-based actions are checked, and before any player can cast spells or activate abilities. If a spell or ability would have caused that damage to be dealt, this happens before that spell or ability resumes its resolution.

08/15/10

The only target of Vengeful Archon’s ability is the player it may deal damage to. You choose that target as you activate the ability, not at the time it prevents damage.

08/15/10

Vengeful Archon’s ability doesn’t have you choose a source of damage. It will apply to the next X damage you would be dealt that turn, regardless of where that damage comes from. It doesn’t matter whether the damage would all be dealt at the same time. For example, if X is 4 and you’d be dealt 3 damage by Lightning Bolt, that 3 damage is prevented and Vengeful Archon deals 3 damage to the targeted player. The prevention effect will still apply to the next 1 damage you’d be dealt that turn.

08/15/10

Whether the targeted player is still a legal target is no longer checked after Vengeful Archon’s ability resolves. For example, if a player targeted by Vengeful Archon’s ability puts Leyline of Sanctity (which says “You can’t be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control”) onto the battlefield after the ability resolves but before it prevents damage, the ability will still prevent damage and still deal damage to that player. If Vengeful Archon can’t deal damage to the targeted player (because the player is no longer in the game in a multiplayer game, for example), it will still prevent damage. It just won’t deal any damage itself.
