🖋️ Curator's Notes

Flying

This creature enters with two shield counters on it.

Whenever this creature enters or attacks, you may remove a counter from a creature or planeswalker you control. If you do, draw a card and create a 1/1 green and white Citizen creature token.

If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.

2022-04-29

Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.

2022-04-29

If a permanent that would be dealt damage has more than one shield counter on it, that damage is prevented and only one shield counter is removed.

2022-04-29

Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.

2022-04-29

Sanctuary Warden's triggered ability allows you to remove any kind of counter, not just a shield counter.

2022-04-29

"Shield" is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.

2022-04-29

A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.
