Whenever you put one or more counters on a creature you don't control, tap that creature and goad it. It gains trample until your next turn. (Until your next turn, that creature attacks each combat if able and attacks a player other than you if able.)

Kros, Defense Contractor is legal in Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Pauper.

Kros, Defense Contractor Rulings

  • Apr 29, 2022

    A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.

  • Apr 29, 2022

    If a permanent that would be dealt damage has more than one shield counter on it, that damage is prevented and only one shield counter is removed.

  • Apr 29, 2022

    If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.

  • Apr 29, 2022

    Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.

  • Apr 29, 2022

    Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
