I find this card to be kinda useless, though I see a few specific decks it could operate in.

A few questions about this card:

1. Are Mummies immune to turning into Skeletons? My opponent played one of these, and I had a Mummy, Pharoah, and 3 Scarabs out at the time. The next couple turns, I sent out 2 more Mummies. The Pharoah and all Scarabs turned into Skeletons in like 2 turns or less that they were sent out, but the Mummies never did in like 8-10 turns.

2. I know Skeletons are immune (much like they are to Boneyard), but what about ex-Skeletons? I used RT on one of the Skeletons, and it turned into a Grey Nymph (which basically made me easily win, haha). But in like 8 turns, that ex-Skeleton never turned back into a Skeleton.

Only Skeletons can't turn into Skeletons. A Grey Nymph can't turn since it doesn't even have any attack power. Similarly, any 1-attack creature can't turn since they don't do any damage after the Shield block.

Oh duh, that's why my nymph didn't turn. So the mummies just got lucky?

What if this shield turned creatures into malignant cells instead of skeletons? Regular blocks no damage and upgraded blocks one. Slightly lower conversion rate.

3-4 instakills per match implies that you have a *lot* of low-HP creatures. That's not really the fault of the card, it's the fault of your deck.

Skull shield wont kill an Armagio because it only has 1 attack.
