Apostle's Blessingprotection$0.28A one-mana protection spell that can save a creature from removal or combat and also grants evasion from the chosen color or artifacts. It fills nearly the same defensive role while being more flexible on targeting permanents or players via life payment.Gods Willingprotection$0.10Very close to Stave Off as a cheap protection trick for a creature, with the added scry upside. It protects from a chosen color rather than granting full protection from all sources of that color.Shelterprotection$4.84This is another 1-mana white protection spell that can save a creature from a color and replaces itself by drawing a card. It is one of the cleanest functional upgrades for the same job.Emerge Unscathedprotection$0.35A cheap protective combat trick that grants protection from the color of your choice, closely matching Stave Off's core function. The rebound makes it stronger over multiple turns.Brave the Elementsprotection$0.45This one-mana spell protects all your white creatures from a chosen color, serving a similar anti-removal and combat role in monowhite decks. It is broader than Stave Off but narrower in color requirements.Blacksmith's Skillprotection$0.29A one-mana protection spell that can save a creature or artifact from removal by giving hexproof and indestructible. It is less color-specific than Stave Off but often functions as a stronger defensive option.Feather, the Redeemedutility$14.80While not a direct spell swap, it supports the same kind of repeated cheap protection effects in white-based shells. It is useful if you want to build around recurring combat tricks and protection spells.Make a Standprotection$0.21This protects your board from damage-based sweepers by giving creatures indestructible, which is a broader defensive role than Stave Off. It is a higher-cost alternative for protecting a creature or team.
