Are there any cards in the game that protect from evil banding instead of just prevent it?

Thaddeus doesn't directly protect from Evil Banding, but depending on how many other Disciples you have out he'll protect from banding on EC's with defense no more than that number. Other than that, no.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Someone doesn't like my CNBNB defense.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

AoCP could help, but if the defense is anything like mine they will have Herod's Temple, Unholy Writ, Herod's Treachery, Gates of Hell or Magic Charms out.

But if the deck is anything like mine, they'll have Image of Jealousy, Blue Tassels, and I am Grace at their disposal...but I digress  ::)

Banding defenses have always been a threat in T2. The one thing that kept them in check for many years was AoCP. Eventually we got a few more options such as Trumpet Blast, Samson's Sacrifice, He is Risen, Two Bears--all of which can be made CBN if done right.

The point is, there is no outright anti- "CBN banding" card, but a good T2 offense will always have a way to deal with it.

I have actually been working on a banding defense for T2. Thinking maybe using heretics and herods.

Creeping Deceiver x5
Sapphira x3
Herod the Great x2
Arhaleus x2
Salome x3
Herodias x3
Mid Attack x5
Mask of Fear x5

Probably a couple Leviathans and KoTs also.
