Guard

Rule: Guard: attacks and lane damage on your ward through a neighbouring open lane hit this Shardling instead.

If an enemy Shardling attacks your ward through an open lane next to a Guard Shardling, the attack hits the Guard Shardling instead. The same goes for lane damage from spells, Sparkstrike and Wildfire. A Guard Shardling in lane 2 can cover lanes 1 and 3. All Guard Shardlings in the base set are Iron.

Tip: Guard lets you hold four lanes with three Shardlings. Put it between two open lanes.

Classes: Iron
