Title: Plansewalker damage.

Can you target a Plansewalker with a card like {Shock} or {Lightning Strike}?

No, you target the player, bit can redirect damage from a player to a Planeswalker they control. I'll find a ruling.

Here's the closest ruling I could find.
306.7. (http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php?action=imtg;area=rule;number=306.7.): If noncombat damage would be dealt to a player by a source controlled by an opponent, that opponent may have that source deal that damage to a planeswalker the first player controls instead. This is a redirection effect (see rule 614.9) and is subject to the normal rules for ordering replacement effects (see rule 616). The opponent chooses whether to redirect the damage as the redirection effect is applied.

I beat testet!

How do you redirect it ? Just say when it resolves I redirect to your planeswalker?
