That's what im saying.... the shield is the only line of defence for RU unless it's close-mid range

At short range the shotgun is more than enough to 1v1 anyone, I would argue mid range too, I don't see why the buff if you're planning on using it on mid and long range.

to be fair its probably best to not step into a mid-long range sightline with your shotgun out

On the maps that are currently in the rotation, that is quite literally impossible

That's someone everyone has to deal with, I don't see why the shield should be buffed because you couldn't find a way to cross a sightline without getting shot

stalker i get but c13 and mainstreet you can definitely avoid those sight lines or peek them with an AR instead of the shotgun

This isnt about me, its about what a lot of people think about the shield in it's current state. Compared to what it used to be, the current shield is worthless. It breaks way too fast for it to stop anything, and there's even a bug where people can just hit headshots straight through it

-1 shields are still good

Well a lot of people think the shield should be nerfed because its still too good, so listening to either side would be a mistake

Just outsmart the combine, then no need for a shield.
