Let’s take a look

“When a Category FFT Forward you control is put from the field into the Break Zone, draw 1 card. This effect will trigger only once per turn.

Aegis (S)(D): Choose 1 Forward you control. Until the end of the turn, it gains Haste and “When this Forward is put from the field into the Break Zone, play this Forward from the Break Zone onto the field dull””

Looks like we’re playing with Final Fantasy Tactics. As we mentioned before, in the Water Review, about the little combo with Marach (13-080C). You will need to find a way to be able to splash different colors. I was more excited about this card when it was released, but now it seems like will work better in a theme deck. Which is not a bad thing. I have yet to look into new decks to see how this card is being used. My guess would be a Lightning/Water deck. Not only to play Marach, but you also get Ramza (13-121R). Hopefully, you’ll play him for 4CP and your opponent will break a forward and return one to his hand.

But, with Aegis, there should be plenty of cards that you’ll want to bounce back after they have been broken. Aegis almost works like Rinoa’s (6-041L) entry ability, the difference is a card has to be put in the Break Zone to come back. Viking (4-133C) might be a fun one to play, as you’ll be drawing a card when it leaves the field and when it comes back in.

A couple of good card to also have on hand would be Sara (13-093H) the royalty searcher, and Simon (13-094C) as he’ll be able to grab Ovelia from the Break Zone. Giving you more Ovelia cards to reuse her ability.
