This is a little awkward like most phoenix cards because your opponent still gets to choose which ring they want to contest. On the bright side, this does stop all effects that put a character in play. There are also a couple of cards that need specific rings to function, or that you can negate entirely if you set it up. Some examples:
If you're willing to use your restricted slot for Kuroi Mori, you can stop all the charge and cavalry reserve-esques cards there too.
Beyond this utility, you are still getting okay stats for a 1 cost courtier, and the scholar part is thrown in as an extra. I like cards like this, because it modifies the value of a certain ring with its ability.
