"Hi, this is Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we are going to discuss and show you the white color from Magic: the Gathering. And now we're going to talk about Spirit Weaver. Spirit Weaver, another powerful defensive card, once again, white very, very associated with defense. Spirit Weaver, it's one and a white. It's 2/1 powered toughness. Now watch this: once again, that seems about even, but you know there's going to be an ability somewhere, once again, it's white. Now, watch this: the ability is tap two Mana, doesn't matter what color they are, two colorless Mana, just two Mana of any color, target green or blue creature gets 0/ 1 until end of turn. Also shows you that there's a lot of blue/white decks, a lot of green/white decks. The reason for this is because you need some defense with your offense. Here we go, plain defense, pay two and you can do this as many times and you don't have to target the same green or blue creature. For every two you pay you can target a different one or whatever. You can also play this, since it is an ability, at any point just like you'd play an Instant. So, after assigning blocking and after, and right before damage resolution you could pay the Mana and bolster your defense of your blocking creatures up by as many Mana as you are willing to pay."
