Hero Realms
Does a prepared guard stop Fireball's damage to champions?
The rulebook explicitly exempts non-targeting abilities from guard protection.

No. Fireball's damage reaches the opponent's champions without targeting them, and the rulebook says guards do not protect against abilities that affect champions without targeting them. Pooled combat still has to get past guards before it reaches other champions or the player.
