Shield Change

Shield Change is a term for replacing a card in your shields with another card.

Details
It is mainly used to add cards with Shield Trigger for defensive or combo purposes.

Normally you can't use the Shield Trigger ability of cards added to your hand from your shields in this way, but here are exceptions such as Marshall Queen.


 * When changing a shield that consists of multiple cards due to Shield Plus, the shield becomes a single card, and the number of cards in your hand increases.
 * When you add cards to your hand with the Shield Recovery aspect, you can use Strike Back abilities. This can be used regardless of the "Shield Trigger can (or can't) be used" text.
 * Some cards that Shield Burn such as Hyperspatial Grip White Black Hole or Eyes Canopus can swap shields from zones other than the hand, using the top of the deck instead.
 * These abilities are often used in decks with multiple "shield trigger" cards known as "Trigger Beat". These decks tend to intentionally trigger their own cards that have the ability in their shields.
