Interesting that the first counter you thought of was to discarding GotPs... the first thing I thought of was attacking into gravity pulled voodoo dolls.

Just wondering - how many ways can you be damaged on your own turn?

not many. thats why the +1|+1 clause is there.

I think this card may be a bit overpowering considering it is in an element where creatures are very inexpensive and can easily be put out in mass quantities. Life's creatures already attack for very high amounts on low quanta cost, and this card would make life rush much easier to pull off. I don't think life needs a card that buffs its creatures more. As for the protection mechanic, I think that this definitely has potential. I would like to see more forms of self-protection against 'deck invasion' (GotP-nightmare) other than Sanctuary. Keep working with that mechanic, I think it has a lot of potential.

Casting a direct damage spell when the opponent has an Emerald Shield | Jade Shield is one.

Sosac would likely bypass it just like it bypasses its own effect

youre probably right... maybe just making it give +0|+2 so its more protective?

1) That fits better with the card's theme.
2) Life creatures tend to have low HP, so +0|+2 is a good complement for them.

I think that it would be great if it gave +0|+2 to Life creatures. I really think that you should make sure to bring out the anti-deck invasion aspect of this card. If this card does only boost HP and guard your deck, I think the cost possibly should be lowered by 1 for both the unupped and upped.

i dont know if its weak enough to warrant lowering the cost, due to life rushes reliance on large number of creatures, it's weakness to mass CC, and just how well this card counteracts that weakness, it might warrant the cost.  maybe if i made it affect all creatures... wait no that would be broken with ball lightning and salvager....
