Redirection effect

A redirection effect is a kind of replacement effect that causes damage that would be dealt to one creature, planeswalker, or player to be dealt instead to another creature, planeswalker, or player. Some older cards were printed with the term “redirect” to indicate a redirection effect. Such cards have received errata in the Oracle card reference so they explicitly state that damage that would be dealt to one object or player is dealt “instead” to another.

R&D has scaled back on doing damage redirection, but it's primary in white. Similar to prevention effects, partial redirection has been removed from design since Harm's Way in Magic 2010, while total redirection has scarce printings.
