Its a 5-drop with some real card advantage potential in the late game, but you can also just use it to cantrip early on, kind of like a cycling card that reserves the creature for later use

What constitutes a "generically useful card" is all my personal opinion, of course

If there are any Zombies on the field, it gives the added bonus of exiling those in the process

(If a creature with a shield counter would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.) Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures

But youll probably find your opponent would prefer to completely banish your characters instead of leaving them with damage left to heal
