Shop decision
When this relic shows up — buy, hold, or skip.
- Best for
- Best for Vanguard boards built around Shield.
- Skip when
- Skip when you are not running Vanguard, or you rarely trigger Shield.
- Shop note
- Rare flex shop piece. Prefer it when the board already leans this direction. Stack Shield support around it. Read the trigger line before you lock it — condition frequency matters more than the number.
