How exactly do auras work with shroud and targeting?

Thanks.

[Keyeto]

Auras target, and are subject to immunities that protect against targeting, like shroud.

Unless an ability "puts" them into play such as {sun titan}.

[Stoneco1d869]

So how does Zur work then?

[Stoneco1d869]

I mean can you add auras to it if Zur has shroud?

Yep! Zur gets around shroud, whether its on himself or other permanents.

So even if he has shroud, I can choose to have an aura enchant him assuming its attached after searching my deck?

But I could not play an aura from my hand if Zur has shroud, at least not on him.?

Correct. Auras that are cast have a target. When Zur just "puts them into play", the aura has to attach to something, provided there's a legal target. This process doesn't target anything, and gets around shroud. It's a nasty abuse of the rules, but it works!

Ok. Last ?. What if there is another legal target, can I still choose Zur??

You sure can!

Can't target a creature with Shroud, neither you nor your opponent.

Ok so if I pull  {Journey to Nowhere} with Zur could I target  {Animar, Soul of Elements}?

No journey is not an aura. It has a targeting etb effect.

Ok but something like  {Prison Term} would work?
