Fog Shield is only powerful in that it is very cheap for its effect. It really isn't all that powerful.

Well not every card needs to be of the same value as another.  Fog shield is already ignored as is, but it still exists.  It also affects every creature 40% of the time, where as this, I assume, only affects half the creatures for 100% of the time.

Different scenarios could provide a better incentive to use either.

I agree with you about multiple shields per Element, but:

1. Light has three shields.
2. Life's shields have two totally different effects (reflecting spells + reduced damage; 75% poison).

1. Oops, I completely forgot about hope
2. Does these two shields not have different effects?

Light has 3 shields, and only 1 is powerful the others are medium. Death also has 2 shield a great one ( bone wall) and a cheap one (skull buckler)

Fog Shield is a lot more widely used than you may think. Mono :air and speed rainbows both use it a lot.

And you say that Wings isn't totally different from Fog Shield?

Quote

These are relative terms depending on a situation. Hope is useless against a Fire Lance staller deck, and Hope is also useless in any deck without a way to generate creatures that generate :light.

This only proves my point that there should be two shields here.

Yay!  Quote pyramid!

Anyway, adding Wings will not make Fog shield obsolete, since some decks somewhere will still use it.

Also, Skull Buckler is not cheap if you use a certain creature control card that creates a ton of 1/1 creatures.

Not reading through three pages...

"Wings" is a fine name. Light's shield is called "hope." Looks like Zanz may be creating a one-word shield for each element. Kind of like an uber-themed shield (light's depends on the production of light, air's reflects the ability of flight).

That being said, what if this shield were like hope instead? For each flying creature you control, you take one less damage?
