Shield Plus is an ability word shared between each of the 5 monocolored civilizations.

Details[]

This ability is featured on creatures, cross gear, and spells.

It enables you to put a card under one of your Shields. This does not increase your shields; this only puts a card under your shield and the entire card stack is considered one shield. Therefore, if the shield with the stack is broke, the entire stack is returned to your hand. However, any Shield Triggers that are in the stack of shield cards will be activated at the same time, making them good for shield trigger oriented decks.

This ability word has 3 variants;
