Gods WillingprotectionBudget$0.10A 1-mana white combat trick that protects a creature from removal or combat damage and also gives scry. It is very close in role to Sheltering Light, though it uses protection from a color instead of indestructible.Loran's Escapeprotection$0.85Protects a creature with hexproof and indestructible for one mana, making it an excellent functional upgrade for saving a key threat. It is one of the closest parallels in effect.Blacksmith's Skillprotection$0.29A 1-mana instant that grants hexproof and indestructible, protecting a creature from targeted removal and destruction effects. It is very similar in purpose but broader defensively.Tamiyo's Safekeepingprotection$2.85Another one-mana protection spell that gives hexproof and indestructible while also gaining life. It serves the same 'save your creature' role with a slightly different upside.Feat of ResistanceprotectionBudget$0.10A white protection trick that makes a creature more resilient in combat and against removal by putting a +1/+1 counter and granting protection from a color. It is a close budget-friendly substitute in the same mana slot.Mortal's ArdorprotectionBudget$0.10A 1-mana white combat trick that grants lifelink and indestructible, letting a creature survive damage-based fights or sweepers. It overlaps strongly with Sheltering Light as a defensive instant.Make a Standprotection$0.21A slightly larger protection spell that grants indestructible to your team rather than one creature, making it a broader combat or sweeper answer. It occupies the same defensive role at a higher mana cost.Boros Charmprotection$5.00A premium protection spell that can make all your permanents indestructible for a small burst of mana in white-red decks. It is a strict upgrade in many situations, though outside mono-white color identity.
