About these numbers: Shield is the printed guardian value from the official card database. Sentinels read 0 because their effect prevents hits, so this page compares printed values.

About this converter

Vanguard guards add guardian Shield to the attacked unit Power and compare against the attacker. Grade 1 and 2 guardians typically print 5,000: Blaster Blade, Wingal, Blaster Blade Spirit, Popowa and Eleme Daat all share it. Grade 0 triggers print 10,000: Llew, Wingal Liberator, Arum and Hedgehog share it. Over Trigger Valnout prints 50,000 with a one per deck rule. Grade 3 bosses print dash for no shield: Gancelot, Majesty Lord, Thing Saver and Alfred read 0. Sentinel Perfect Guards like Bellringer Angel and Monju read 0 by design because their effect stops the hit instead. Every figure here is the Shield cell from the official card database with Vanguard Wiki cross checks.

How to use it

Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Valnout against 1 Blaster Blade to see the over trigger to guardian gap. The ratio line prints how many times larger one shield is.

Heal triggers carry 10,000 in Standard D, correcting the guess that heals read 0. Zero rows belong to Grade 3 bosses and Sentinels only. The six zero rows sit last so default picks stay numeric.

FAQ

How does guarding work?

Called guardians add Shield to the attacked unit Power and compare to attacker Power. Grade must not exceed your vanguard.

Why do Sentinels read 0?

Perfect Guards prevent the hit by effect, so printed shield is 0 by design.

What is the highest shield here?

Valnout Over Trigger at 50,000. One per deck. Triggers are next at 10,000.

Do Grade 3 units guard?

They print dash for no shield, read here as 0. Guard with lower grades instead.
