- Q: Can Sister Mary choose to assign damage to Guardian Angel, put tokens in the bag, and then cancel or ignore that damage with a card like "I've had worse…" or Deny Existence, not actually placing any damage tokens on Guardian Angel? A: Yes, Guardian Angel can be “assigned” the damage, causing tokens put into the bag, and then the damage can be cancelled or ignored before it’s actually “dealt” to Guardian Angel.

There was a lot of confusion when they previewed an investigator in the guardian class with a 5/9 split. That’s worse than Carolyn, who was explicitly a healer and a big money support. But Guardian Angel is better than I imagined. It lets you protect multiple people on your team, from a distance, while you’re doing other things. Or maybe you just want to soak a hit or two.
The big brain move is having someone else take Solemn Vow. They protect you, the Angel protects them, and you can feed the bag. Pay them back by using rite of sanctification to give them a discount on their buys. Perfect!
