CREATURE — OCTOPUS ADVISOR
Shield Broker
When this creature enters, put a shield counter on target noncommander creature you don't control. You gain control of that creature for as long as it has a shield counter on it. (If it would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.)

- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingIf 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.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingIf a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingShield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingRemoving a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingIf the creature loses its shield counter during combat, it will be removed from combat when it changes controllers. If it hasn't already assigned combat damage by that time, it won't get to deal combat damage.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official Ruling"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.
- WWizards of the Coast2022-04-29Official RulingA 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.
