Strategy

Shield Surge is a good defensive card to start with, since it applies both regular and temporary Shield.

Its A upgrade improves its Shield output by 1, which doubles how much Shield it can save for a rainy day.

Its B upgrade is also a great way to easily increase your Max Shield, though it comes at the cost of being able to gain regular Shield with it. This is good for a dedicated Shield build that's looking to take hits every turn, as Temp Shield isn't capped by your Max Shield, and it'll allow other cards to provide more regular Shield.
