Longde Protectors?
In most lineages/schools there is a particular Protector and or Guruyoga that is commonly used (i.e Nyingma has Vajrakilaya and Guru Rinpoche etc) Is anyone aware of any Protectors that were common to Longde?

Also.....Ngondzog Gyalpo is used as Guru, is he also used as Yidam as well?

Yes Ngondzog Gyalpo is a yidam connected to Longde practice. Longde is not something separate from Nyingma lineage, so same protectors as there are in Nyingma kama apply here - Mazadam sum, Maning, Legden etc. you can do any of these.
