Description
Rootborn Rally
Rootborn Defenses is a compact white instant that fits into many board oriented strategies. The card reads Populate. Creatures you control gain indestructible until end of turn. That combination lets you salvage a stalled board by protecting a wide token army or doubling down on a single powerful token. Played on the opponent turn it turns combat math in your favor without committing extra permanents to the board.
On Ravnica the card pulls double duty. Rootborn Defenses not only denies removal based interaction but also generates incremental advantage via populate. Use it to copy a leftover token before a mass removal resolves then keep the whole flock safe for a turn. This card is practical in token synergies, white weenie builds and any deck that values parity through resilient creatures.
