About Veteran Bodyguard

Veteran Bodyguard, Creature — human, designed by Douglas Shuler first released in Aug, 1993 in the set Limited Edition Alpha and was printed exactly in 11 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.59.

This card would be beneficial in a control-oriented white deck that aims to protect the player from direct damage by unblocked creatures. While Veteran Bodyguard offers a unique form of protection, there are potentially more efficient options such as cards with similar effects like Stuffy Doll or cards that provide broader protection like Fog Bank. Whether or not Veteran Bodyguard should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, as well as the overall metagame.

Rules

04/10/04

If a creature is blocked but Trample damage is still done to a player, this damage can’t be redirected to the Bodyguard because the Bodyguard only takes damage from unblocked creatures.

04/10/04

If you have multiple Veteran Bodyguards, you can decide which one receives the redirected damage each time damage would be dealt to you.
