This card is solid. The obvious and pretty much best hero to put it on is my man Beregond and Beregond, but Beregond is better because you can put Gondorian Shield on him as well as Raven-winged Helm with more ease than Power Beregond. You can also use Blood of Númenor and then you can pretty much defend against anything. If you add in ways to cancel the odd nasty shadow effect, you can pretty much get an extra resource every time there is an enemy in play. That extra resource is extremely handy for Tactics in particular, as they have little to no resource generation, and it will give you more freedom on who to attach Steward of Gondor with. This card is especially good in multiplayer because then you can get your friend to go leadership and use this card on your hero, which might be better for you, and also an enemy might engage your friend instead of you for whatever reason (sometimes it is forced, sometimes you might actually want to enagage an enemy), so this card having direct synergy with sentinel just adds versatility and freedom. Also, the extra card in the staging phase can be in your favor as there is more of a chance of an enemy appearing.
Great card. Albeit a bit limited on who you can effectively play it on.
