Defender

Reddit

Defender is an example of a keyword that came about after the effect was used in Magic. Most commonly linked with the early 'Walls' of Magic it has seen more use in recent sets as a keyword that thematically means the creature is only good for getting in the way, not attacking.

  • 702.3a. Defender is a static ability.
