About The Protector

The Protector, Hero, designed by Chuck Lukacs first released in Sep, 2013 in the set Theros Hero's Path. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.61.

The Protector would be particularly beneficial in a control or defensive deck that aims to protect key creatures or players from damage, especially in formats where damage prevention can swing the tide of a game. While it offers a useful effect, there are arguably more efficient options available, such as Fog, which prevents all combat damage for a turn, or Healing Salve, which can prevent damage or gain life, providing a more versatile approach. Ultimately, whether The Protector should see play depends on the specific deck strategy and meta; if the deck focuses heavily on damage prevention and has synergy with tapping creatures, it could be a valuable inclusion, but in a more aggressive or fast-paced environment, it might be outclassed by more impactful cards.
