For some reason, the 7 damage prevention to one target in a game of magic just seems ridiculous. I feel like it would be a weaker card if it said "Prevent all damage that would be dealt to creature or player this turn, put a +0/+1 counter on the creature (if applicable) for each damage prevented this way." I mean, obviously, that would be way better, but singular damage increments as high as 7 just leaves more of an impact than "all" damage. The thought that you'd need 7 damage prevented to turn the tide of a war would be ridiculous (your opponent would be aiming to kill your creatures exactly, or near exact damage), but for exiling a white card, this is definitely worth it. That being said, this card looks pretty impressive with a big figure like 7 and it's pretty effective with the pitch cost.

Obviously no Force of Will, but Force of Will is probably the single most unintentionally important card ever printed in the game. This isn't a bad card in it's own right, 7 damage worth of prevention can really swing something if you use it right.

This thing has led to some unusually large white weenies whenever I've seen it. Nothing's as good as Force of Will but this sure beats Bounty of the Hunt by a long shot.

Use in a Doran, the Siege Tower EDH deck to make one of your creatures HUUUUGE.

Its funny how preventing all damage would make the card stronger but yet seem weaker because you are removing that big timmy number 7.
