Modern 24 Eng.FUsr.—
Boros Aggro could test it as removal protection, but holding up two mana for a one-shot trick is a steep cost in Modern.
Could be wrong if A creature or artifact shell may value the permanent counter and protection more than expected.
Legacy 18 Eng.FUsr.—
Even in Boros Aggro, two mana for temporary protection is inefficient against Legacy's fast threats and exile-based answers.
Could be wrong if A new white proactive shell could make protecting one must-answer permanent worth the tempo loss.
Pauper 29 Eng.FUsr.—
It can foil targeted removal and win combat while growing a creature, but two mana and no card advantage make it a narrow test card.
Could be wrong if If targeted destroy effects dominate, its ability to blank Bolt- and Cast Down-style removal could earn sideboard use.
Commander 46 Eng.C-Usr.—
A reasonable way to protect a commander or key artifact through targeted removal, though it is a one-for-one with limited board-wipe coverage.
Could be wrong if Optimized white decks may prefer cheaper or broader protection, leaving this outside tight card slots.
Limited 55 Eng.C+Usr.—
A combat and removal blowout that leaves a +1/+1 counter is usually maindeckable, though it is weak without a creature worth protecting.
Could be wrong if Unknown removal density and format speed determine whether holding up two mana is rewarding enough.
“A two-mana protection spell with a small permanent creature boost, likely useful in Limited but inefficient for most eternal competition.”
