What does Ward do in MTG?
Ward in Magic The Gathering is like your creature's personal bodyguard. When a creature with ward is targeted by a spell or ability an opponent controls, the opponent has to pay an extra cost or the spell/ability gets countered (basically, it fizzles into the aether). This extra cost could be paying more mana, life points, or something else specified by the ward ability. It's a great way to protect your valuable creatures from your opponents' attempts to mess with them.

Simple answer: Ward makes your opponents pay more if they wanna target your creature with something nasty. It's like adding a security fee on your creature!
I think Ward is overrated. Yes, it protects your creatures, but savvy players can easily work around it. Not worth the hype IMO.
