About Defensive Formation

Defensive Formation, Enchantment, designed by Greg Staples first released in Oct, 1998 in the set Urza's Saga. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.75.

This card, Defensive Formation, would benefit a control or defensive deck that focuses on protecting its life total and controlling the battlefield. While it offers a unique ability to redirect combat damage, there are more efficient options available such as Propaganda or Ghostly Prison which deter attackers altogether. Defensive Formation could see situational play in specific strategies but may not be a staple in competitive decks due to its limited impact compared to other options.
