Youre already committed to playing other peoples decks at that point

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

In Standard that's pretty great, you get three cards for the price of one

When you cast a spell with X in the mana cost, you create a 0/0 green Hydra creature token, then put X +1/+1 counters on it

After youve attacked with 2 of them, you can pay 2 white to untap them and draw a card

Note that this is a symmetrical effect for all players, so be cautious
