Mother of Runes
Oracle Text
{T}: Target creature you control gains protection from the color of your choice until end of turn.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Mother of Runes is one of white’s cleanest tempo and protection tools, a humble Human Cleric that turns a single mana into a recurring shield for your best threat. On board, she excels in control and midrange shells, where preserving a key creature matters more than racing; she also quietly fuels aggro by forcing awkward blocks and blanking removal. Because she grants protection from a chosen color until end of turn, she can save a creature from burn, dodge a fatal blocker, or make an attacker unblockable by that color. Deckbuilding-wise, she pairs especially well with equipment, auras, and commanders that want to stay alive, since protecting one premium body repeatedly can snowball a game. In Commander, she is strongest when your deck has high-value creatures or combo pieces that must survive removal, and she becomes even better alongside untap effects or sacrifice-protection engines that let her activate multiple times in a turn.
