About Tortoise Formation
Tortoise Formation, Instant, designed by Mark Zug first released in May, 2020 in the set Shards of Alara. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.35.
This card, Tortoise Formation, would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on protecting its creatures from targeted removal or spells. Decks that rely on having key creatures on the battlefield, such as Voltron or creature-heavy strategies, could greatly benefit from the shroud ability provided by this card. While Tortoise Formation is a solid option for protecting creatures, there are potentially better alternatives like Heroic Intervention, which provides hexproof and indestructible to all creatures you control. Whether Tortoise Formation should see play ultimately depends on the specific strategy and needs of the deck, but it could certainly find a place in certain creature-centric builds.
