🖋️ Curator's Notes
This spell costs 2 less to cast if a creature died this turn.

Ward 2 (Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays 2.)

"Underground civilizations maintain magical barriers around their settlements to deter these monsters."

⚖️

Official Judge Precedents

2 Precedents

If a player casts a spell that targets multiple permanents their opponent controls with ward, each of those ward abilities will trigger. If that player doesn't pay for all of them, the spell will be countered.

Purple Worm's first ability will never reduce its cost more than {2}, no matter how many creatures died this turn.
