Mirror-Shield Hoplite

Point a backup trigger at one of your creatures and this Hoplite copies it, once per turn, with fresh targets on the copy. That redirect clause is the entire mechanism. Backup normally forces a choice: keep the enters-the-battlefield package (the counter, the granted keywords) on its own body, or spread it to a creature that will actually attack. The copy dissolves the tension by letting you do both at once, feeding the source and rerouting the duplicate wherever the board needs counters and evasion most. The once-per-turn ceiling is the restriction that keeps this from becoming an untargeted engine that copies every backup on the stack; it caps the payoff at one extra resolution per turn, which is enough to matter and not enough to run away. The 2/2 with vigilance is deliberately plain so the value lives entirely in the trigger. What sets this apart from broader effects like Strionic Resonator, which will copy any triggered ability for a cost, is that it narrows the copy to a single keyword and a single color pair, which is what lets it read cleanly instead of turning every trigger on the stack into a targeting puzzle. It rewards a board built around one backup source you want to fire twice, not a pile of unrelated triggers.
