Alternate A-skill for H!Jakob

Since I don't have a spare Takumi to fodder for Close Counter(saving my last W!Tharja for Zelgius if there is a Vantage seal in the next Mini TT), would Sheena's Svalinn Shield be a good swap for H!Jakob? Given his defenses(mine is a +1 merged Res+/HP-), with Svalinn Shield he can take hits from even Micaiah's Thani. What do you all think?

Honest opinions are greatly appreciated.

It's...very situational. I haven't seen a lot of Micaiah in the arena, and even fewer in Arena Assaul. Armor slaying melee weapons don't seem that common either. I've honestly not found any of the Shield skills that useful outside Iote's Shield, and that's only because archers are so common. You've probably heard this a lot, but Fury is a good way to go that is rather easily obtainable, especially with the new 4 star focus banner making Hinata available at every star level but 1 and 2(and who cares about 1 and 2 star heroes anyway?)

While his Speed Smoke is tempting to keep for someone, I do have a spare Sigurd that I can give to Jakob for Close Defense. Frees up the seal slot or even double the CD effect. How about that?
