Rhox Pummeler of Streets of New Capenna

Rhox Pummeler enters with a shield counter on it. (If it would be dealt damage or destroyed, remove a shield counter from it instead.)
Rhox Pummeler has trample as long as it has a shield counter on it.

When all you have is a warhammer, every face looks like a nail.

29-04-2022 wotc Combat damage is assigned to creatures and players and then dealt simultaneously. Notably, this means blocking a Rhox Pummeler with a shield counter on it won't normally prevent Rhox Pummeler from dealing damage to the defending player due to its trample ability.
29-04-2022 wotc If an attacking Rhox Pummeler with one shield counter on it is blocked by a creature with first strike, the shield counter will be removed in the first combat damage step. In that case, Rhox Pummeler won't have trample when it deals combat damage in the second combat damage step.
29-04-2022 wotc 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.
29-04-2022 wotc Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.
29-04-2022 wotc "Shield" is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.
29-04-2022 wotc Shield counters don't prevent players from sacrificing creatures.
29-04-2022 wotc 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.
29-04-2022 wotc If a permanent with a shield counter is dealt unpreventable damage, that damage will be dealt and a shield counter will still be removed.
