King's Shield Competitive Analysis

King's Shield is one of the better protecting moves as it also has the additional effect of lowering the attack stat by two stages of anyone who hits into it. This is an auto-include in any Aegislash build as it gives it protection on top of its already bulky stat and type combination.
