You may have this creature enter as a copy of any creature on the battlefield, except it enters with a shield counter on it if you control that creature. (If it would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.)
rulings
- 2022-04-29Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
- 2022-04-29Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
- 2022-04-29A 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.
- 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.
- 2022-04-29If 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.
- 2022-04-29If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
