This card, Rootborn Defenses, would be beneficial in a deck focused on token generation and aggressive creature strategies in Magic: the Gathering. It provides protection and resilience to your board by creating a copy of a creature token and granting indestructible to your creatures, which can be especially powerful when facing board wipes or removal spells. While there may be other cards with similar effects like Heroic Intervention or Teferi's Protection, Rootborn Defenses can still be a strong inclusion in decks looking to go wide with creatures and protect their board presence.

Rules

03/14/17

Rootborn Defenses affects only creatures you control after populating at the time it resolves. The creature token you create will gain indestructible, but creatures you begin to control later in the turn will not.

04/15/13

Any “as [this creature] enters the battlefield” or “[this creature] enters the battlefield with” abilities of the new token will work.

04/15/13

The new creature token copies the characteristics of the original token as stated by the effect that put the original token onto the battlefield.

04/15/13

You can choose any creature token you control for populate. If a spell or ability puts a token onto the battlefield under your control and then instructs you to populate (as Coursers’ Accord does), you may choose to copy the token you just created, or you may choose to copy another creature token you control.
