This card has been such a boon for protection. You can leave it on big minions and just chip away at their health casually while you block their damage. I found it synergized as well with Jump Flip and Side Step, so you can avoid using a basic defense to trigger the card. Also amazing for Change of Fortune. If you're finding you're having trouble dealing with minions and protection, I highly recommend this card.

Under Control seems like a worse version of Powerful Punch, First Hit, and the like. This could work with Nightcrawler, who can defend without exhausting (with Bamf), so he can defend against the villain and a minion. It can also work with Change of Fortune. Under Control is worse because you can’t activate it without defending against a minion, but all the rest you can just activate. It can activate multiple times –that’s nice. So if you’re up against the Dragon (Mojo Mania) you could defend a bunch and eventually take it out.
In multiplayer, you mostly want to defend the team against the villain, so it seems more of a solo card, though I’d love to see Valkyrie play it.
In multiplayer, this card is great for letting your lower defense players knock out a minion. As the protection player, you're right that you are probably tanking the villain. So you are defending and stunning, or defending and readying to defend again, or what have you. Your partner is then using their 2 DEF to take out a minion you didn't have time to handle.
