Sylvan Safekeeper: Green Shield on a 1/1
Sylvan Safekeeper is a lean defensive tool for green decks. For a single green mana you get a 1/1 Human Wizard whose ability lets you sacrifice a land to grant shroud to a creature you control until end of turn. That effect can shield your important threat from targeted removal or combat tricks, buying you a critical moment to advance your plan. The card's flavor hints at the forest's stubborn resilience, a theme that fits the rugged vibe of Modern Horizons 3 green archetypes.
In practice, Safekeeper shines in tempo and midrange lines where a small, cheap spell can stabilize the board while you assemble your next move. It doesn't win games by itself, but the flexibility to protect a key creature at instant speed can tilt a combat and preserve your assets through a tense turn. This copy is in Near Mint condition, a clean example for casual play or collection, and pairs well with green mana acceleration and protective creatures in a variety of Modern Horizons 3 decks.
