Get the Standard Bearer on the field, bonded to the Navigator. When your opponent tries to cast a targeted spell, the Standard Bearer will pull the targeting to itself. Then just flicker it with the Navigator ability.

The spell will be countered because its target is no longer on the battlefield (if a creature leaves and enters again, it is treated as a new creature by the rules). Re-bond to the Navigator, and keep your opponent's targeting under control.

This is better than shrouding/hexproofing in a way, as those can only really stop a single spell or effect before the Standard Bearer is an illegal target and lets your opponent shoot elsewhere.

ive been wanting to use bearer for a while now because it works almost like spellskite does for a lot less money (but not modern format)
