Pippin, Guard of the Citadel
Oracle Text
Vigilance, ward {1}
{T}: Another target creature you control gains protection from the card type of your choice until end of turn. (It can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, enchanted, or equipped by anything of that type.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Pippin, Guard of the Citadel is a tidy little tempo-support creature that rewards careful board play rather than brute force. A 2/2 vigilant body with ward {1} already asks opponents to spend extra effort removing him, but his real value is in turning any creature you control into a nearly untouchable threat for a turn by naming the right card type. That makes him especially strong in blue-white decks that want to push damage through while staying open on defense, or in control shells that only need one protected finisher to close a game. He pairs well with evasive attackers, token swarms, and creatures with powerful tap abilities, since vigilance lets him attack and still hold up his protection ability. He also shines against decks relying on a single permanent type, letting you blank blockers, equipment, or removal in a pinch. In short, Pippin is a flexible protective tool for tempo and value-minded builds.
