Champion of Thunder

(relevant text) Reaction: After another player's action targets a card in this unit: Negate the action's effects on this card.

Does "this" card only mean actions on Champion of Thunder are negated or the card that was targeted?

Champion of Thunder: Does "this" card only mean actions on Champion of Thunder are negated or the card that was targeted?

The former. Champion of Thunder protects itself, not so much other cards.
