Brokers' Safeguard is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
Exile target nonartifact creature you control. It perpetually gains "This creature enters with an additional shield counter on it." Then return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control. (If it would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.)
How it works : Brokers' Safeguard
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If 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.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
A 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.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #6· Wizards of the Coast
"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.
No other card is named in this ruling.
