Wrap in Vigor is a great addition, thanks!
Also, with regards to Temur Sabertooth, is it worth adding cards that can return multiple of your creatures to your hand for this list? I personally don't think those are good enough, but I'd love to you hear your opinion.
Note to self: add Karmic Justice and consider Martyr's Bond.

For 6 mana, you can save 4 creatures (you bounce 3 creatures + make Temur Sabertooth indestructible). So, it "saves" enough creatures for you criteria. The most important point, is that it is a totally asymmetrical effect, it is better than Evacuation. Also, for value-oriented decks with many ETB-effects. It allows to replay them.
So I think, that it should be on this list.

100% perfect
I think if a player spots a Nature's Revolt or the more pricey money wise Living Plane on the field they are going to say
"NO WAY IM BOARDWIPING THAT WOULD DESTORY MY LANDS!"

How about teferi's veil? Most boardwipes are sorceries, so it generally works.

Thrilling Encore is the most notable inclusion from new sets.

Kamahl, Fist of Krosa is much like Jorael and can prevent board wipes, while at the same time buffing the creatures that it protects.

Scapegoat and Warping Wail are worth including.

You are missing Wail of the Nim in black or am I incorrect?

I appreciate the effort, although I vehemently disagree with including mass reanimation effects that don't have turn-specific clause as "anti boardwipe tech". Not because most of them are really clunky, bad cards (that would be fine), but because they are not specific counterplay to boardwipes at all.

Hey everyone, I've updated this list, using only cards that can save tokens (since, let's be honest, those are the decks that need this list the most).

I think this direction is much cleaner and as a result the list is much more useful as a resource. Well done.

tugarec, good catch! I'll add it to the list. It's definitely a huge downside, but some decks might actually consistently win before they lose to it :)

Is Teferi's Veil too niche? It completely protects creatures (including tokens) against all forms of sorcery speed wipes, but they have to survive combat and their abilities won't be available most of the time.

No Teferi's Protection?
