Rebuff the Wickedprotection$7.15A very similar one-mana white protection spell that counters a spell targeting one of your permanents. It doesn't cantrip, but it fills the same defensive role.Lazotep Platingprotection$0.39Protects your permanents from targeted interaction and also leaves you with an additional shield via hexproof. It is broader than Keep Safe in protecting all your permanents and itself draws a card-equivalent in the form of card advantage.Miscastprotection$6.32A cheap blue interaction spell that counters instants and sorceries, often used to protect your board from targeted removal. It is not permanent-specific, but it serves a similar reactive tempo role.Dive Downprotection$0.16One-mana blue protection that gives a creature hexproof and makes it harder to remove. It is narrower than Keep Safe, but it is the closest budget-style defensive substitute.Spell Pierceprotection$0.29A very efficient blue interaction spell that can stop targeted removal or other noncreature spells early. It trades the specific permanent-targeting clause for broader flexibility and a lower mana cost.Miscalculationprotection$0.44A cheap counterspell that can protect your board by stopping the key spell, while also cycling for value later. It is broader but occupies a similar early-game reactive slot.NullifyprotectionBudget$0.05Counters a creature or Aura spell, which overlaps with many spells that target your permanents. It is a slightly narrower but comparable defensive option at the same cost.Negateprotection$0.54A staple two-mana counterspell for noncreature spells, including targeted removal and tricks. It is broader than Keep Safe and often a strict upgrade when you want more universal protection.
