that's why he has the hp to self to keep himself alive because if it's in harder content (like Avant GGC where he hits you REALLY frigging hard), he's gonna be taking the brunt of that due to his omni having a 50% chance on his SBB to make some of the damage hit him instead, it's not quite taunt, but it allows him to divert some of the damage just in case an enemy decides to be an ass and focus one unit
