Protect the Negotiators⁣ - Dominaria United⁣ (Uncommon)⁣ [62]

When you cast Protect the Negotiators, you can either counter an opponent's spell unless they pay {1} for each creature you control, or you can pay an extra {W} as a “kicker” to also create a 1/1 white Soldier creature token. This card is particularly useful in a deck where you have multiple creatures, as it can effectively force your opponent to pay a hefty price to resolve their spells while simultaneously bolstering your board presence if you choose to kick it. However, if you’re not in a creature-heavy situation, the counter effect might not be as powerful, and the additional cost for the token may not justify the spell's use.
