Board the Window
Boarded Window is a compact artifact that buys you breathing room against swarms and single big hitters alike. For {3} mana it applies a steady bite to anything attacking you by giving creatures attacking you -1/0, which shifts combat math in your favor without needing constant activation. The printed reminder triggers at the end step and exiles the card if you suffered four or more damage that turn, so it plays well as a low maintenance defensive tool in control builds or as a stall piece in aggressive matchups.
Innistrad flavor shows through in the art and text, a boarded shutter holding back something hungry and persistent. Use Boarded Window to blunt early rushes, preserve key life totals, and buy turns for your late game answers. Experienced players will recognize it as a small clock manipulator that trades tempo for stability. Add one to sideboards or main decks when you need predictable damage mitigation that scales with creature counts and interacts cleanly with provoke and chump block lines.
