Gameplay

Legendary Creature — Human Soldier

Vigilance Creatures can't attack you or planeswalkers you control unless their controller pays {1} for each of those creatures.

"The walls of Argive were built by a peaceful dynastic union that has guarded us against war for fifteen centuries. The lesson is clear."

If you control Baird, your opponents can choose not to pay to attack with a creature that attacks "if able." If there's no other player, planeswalker, or battle to attack, that creature simply doesn't attack.

2018-04-27wotc

In a Two-Headed Giant game, creatures can attack your teammate and planeswalkers your teammate controls without requiring a mana payment. This is a change from previous rules.
