About Ephemeral Shields

Ephemeral Shields, Instant, designed by Yohann Schepacz first released in Jul, 2014 in the set Magic 2015 and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.33.

This card, Ephemeral Shields, would be beneficial in a White Weenie or Tokens deck in Magic: the Gathering, where you have multiple small creatures to tap for convoke and protect a key creature from removal or combat damage. While it can be situationally useful, there are better options like Gods Willing or Brave the Elements that provide more versatile protection for your creatures, making Ephemeral Shields less likely to see play in competitive decks.

Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won’t be on the battlefield when you pay the spell’s costs, so you won’t be able to tap it for convoke.
