Crystal Barricade
Crystal Barricade offers dependable defense for any white based deck looking to stabilize the board. As an artifact creature Wall with a {1}{W} casting cost and 0 4 toughness this card locks down attackers while giving you hexproof so your plan is harder to disrupt. The printed text prevents noncombat damage to your other creatures which makes this a solid choice in metagames where board wipes and damage sources threaten your board state.
The extended art frames the crystalline structure against a battered wall and reads like a small piece of battlefield engineering. Use Crystal Barricade to buy time for your value engines and to protect key creatures from incidental damage. It pairs well with creatures that benefit from surviving through removal or with enchantments and auras that need a safe target. Add it to your sideboard or main deck when you expect grinding games and focused removal. Pick up this Near Mint English copy from the Foundations set and shore up your defense today.
