The oracle fortune text pretty much sums up the reason for why this card should exist 
Essentially, it is a contingency plan turned into a shield. This overcomes several of the shortcomings of Gravity Pull in gravity decks right now.
1) They must be split amongst defensive and offensive roles.This card frees them up to see more use as a (quite potent) CC card
2) If a GP creature dies before absorbing all enemy attacks, the rest of the damage comes through to you. This shield helps to close that gap by automatically picking a new creature to take over.
3) Since GP must be used on your turn, it opens up the mechanic to CC counters. This card mitigates that since it does not pick the GP recipient until right at the point when you need it.
4) As a defensive measure 1 card slot per creature can eat up deck space. This card packs multiple uses into one card to help alleviate that deck building constraint
Misc. notes:
* This shield does not stack with itself (playing a new copy just resets the charge count, it does not add more to it).
* If targeted by PC the shield is completely destroyed (e.g. the charges mechanic is not meant as anti-PC here).
* 'Largest' means most current HPs. E.g. A colossal dragon with 15 HPs left would take priority over an armagio with 10 HPs left.
* When the charges run out, the shield is removed from play (this will NOT trigger Graviton Salvagers)

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky
