MTG Salvation

Kind of like Damping Matrix, is there one that affects triggered abilities?
Also, needs to be Modern Legal

Torpor Orb works for a bunch of them, Rest in Peace solves all dies triggers.

Im looking for something that preemptively stops Eidolon of the Great Revel

Aside from something that keeps Eidolon off the battlefield, there currently isn't a card that stops this kind of triggered abilities from triggering.

murderous cut

There's a few roundabout ways, but nothing that really stops cast triggers (except for not casting stuff, like through aether vial). Sundial of the Infinite can do it in a blunt fashion.

Personal Sanctuary will do what you are looking for, depending on how many instants you run.
Runed Halo naming Eidolon of Great Revel is probably your best choice: It completely stops Eidelon from hurting you (ability or effect), while making it's effect still affect your opponent.

Darksteel mutation would do the trick

Aether Flash?

The most viable way to deal with the Eidolon is to just cast a spot removal spell and take the two damage. If you really can't afford that, there is some spot removal that is still rather cheap to play but doesn't trigger the Eidolon. Murderous Cut was already mentioned, there're also Flame Javelin, Stoke the Flames, Ghost-Lit Raider, Shriekmaw, Spitebellows, etc.

For preemtive cards, there are:
Circle of Protection: Red
Story Circle
Circle of Solace
Seal of Fire
Seal of Doom
Seal of Primordium

Other cards to deal with the trigger instead of the creature once it's out:
Defang
Ghostly Possession
Heart of Light
Temporal Isolation
Ixidron

(edit: Missed the combat damage on the Possession)

Ghostly Possession

Only prevents combat damage. The rest of the list is great though.

More unconventional solutions: Spirit Link, Vampiric Link, Armadillo Cloak, and Paladin of Prahv (you take the damage dealt to you, then gain it right back; you also gain life when they hit themselves), or alternatively Visions of Brutality (you take the damage, but they do too, and they take double when hitting themselves)
