Tamiyo's Safekeepingprotection$2.85A one-mana green protection trick that gives a creature hexproof for the turn, while also adding a small toughness buffer and life gain. It fills the same combat-save and spot-removal protection role as Ranger's Guile.Blossoming Defenseprotection$0.46Very close functional analog: it protects a creature with hexproof and also gives a combat-relevant power boost. It is generally stronger offensively and is one of the best upgrades to Ranger's Guile.Apostle's Blessingprotection$0.28A cheap reactive protection spell that can save a creature from removal or combat damage. It trades hexproof for color or artifact protection, but serves the same defensive role.Sheltering Lightprotection$0.28A one-mana protection spell that grants indestructible instead of hexproof, often accomplishing the same task of saving a creature from removal or combat. It also scries, making it a smooth utility alternative.Vines of Vastwoodprotection$0.71A classic green protection trick that can stop targeted removal and also act as a pump spell. Its kicker mode makes it a stronger late-game option than Ranger's Guile.Snakeskin Veilprotection$0.08Similar one-mana green protection that grants a stat boost and a way to blank targeted removal. It is often a strict upgrade in +1/+1 counter decks, though it protects differently than hexproof alone.Tyvar's Standprotection$0.59A flexible protection spell that can save a creature from most removal while also scaling into a huge pump effect. It costs more if you want maximum protection, but it plays the same role in many green decks.Blacksmith's Skillprotection$0.29A cheap combat and removal protection trick that grants hexproof and indestructible to a permanent. It is broader than Ranger's Guile in what it protects, though it uses white rather than green.
