Shore Up
Oracle Text
Target creature you control gets +1/+1 and gains hexproof until end of turn. Untap it. (It can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.)
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Shore Up is a deceptively powerful one-mana trick that best supports tempo and midrange strategies by turning a single blue instant into both protection and reuse — +1/+1 and hexproof buys your creature a turn while untapping it lets you immediately re-use tap-activated abilities or remove it from combat. Use it to dodge targeted removal at instant speed, to save a key attacker by pulling it out of combat and repurposing it as a blocker, or to enable mana dorks and value engines that tap for resources or effects. It pairs particularly well with low-cost creatures that have tap abilities (mana producers, looters, or tap-to-deal/draw effects) and with blink/flicker themes that want to keep a permanent safe while still generating triggers. Deckbuilding tip: include a suite of cheap instants and a dense curve of 1–3 mana creatures so Shore Up consistently functions as both insurance and tempo gain rather than a dead card late. Thematically it reads as stabilizing the tide—shore up your board and keep your plan afloat.
