Shield of the Avatar, Artifact — equipment, designed by Volkan Baǵa first released in Jul, 2014 in the set Magic 2015.
This card, Shield of the Avatar, would benefit a deck that focuses on generating a wide board of creatures, such as a token or go-wide strategy. It can provide valuable protection by reducing incoming damage based on the number of creatures you control, making it particularly effective in swarm-style decks. While there may be other equipment cards with more versatile or powerful effects, Shield of the Avatar could still see play in specific decks that prioritize creature quantity over individual strength.

To determine how much damage to prevent, use the number of creatures you control when damage would be dealt, including the equipped creature. Notably, if damage would be dealt to multiple creatures at the same time, you’ll count the number of creatures you control before any of that damage is dealt.
