About Shield of the Ages

Shield of the Ages, Artifact, designed by Anson Maddocks first released in Jun, 1995 in the set Ice Age and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.07.

A deck focused on control and stalling tactics would benefit from Shield of the Ages, as it provides a way to mitigate damage and prolong the game. However, in a competitive setting, there are better options like Force of Will or Counterspell that offer more versatile protection and interaction. Shield of the Ages could see play in casual or themed decks for its unique flavor, but in a more competitive environment, it may not be the most optimal choice.
