Try Lashknife Barrier.

I coulda seen myself using it if it cost one less.
But it is a common.
Meh.

Prevention spells have always been a favorite of mine, but have always lacked a bit. This card is still lacking, but the flashback for 1W makes it decent. I run one of these in my mono-white EDH deck and it has saved my creatures. (not many people expect prevention spells nowadays)

If only It cost one less apon normal casting.
2/5 Stars

Admittedly, I pulled these out of a white weenie deck for Harm's Way. Embolden is expensive, but you get a lot in return. I suppose 2 lopsided combats is too much to expect, but a card that can save multiple creatures and then prevent an additional 4 damage to you goes a long way. Perfect overlooked gem for EDH.

Is a lot more interesting if you have a bunch of heroic creatures on the battlefield.
