Gibby Dome rework

Hey guys!

so the talks have been surrounding Gibbys dome and how it needs health and should be breakable and this has been discussed for a long time. 

This is my idea:

For Gibby dome, I believe the health on the dome could be dictated by which knock down shield is equipped on Gibby. The higher the knock down shield level, the more health it has, 

for example:

white knock down = 400 damage

blue knock down = 650 damge

purple knock down = 800 damage

gold knock down = 1200 damage OR just give it unlimited damage as this could be a benefit of actually having a gold knock down now. 

Those numbers could obviously be adjusted to suit whatever would feel not over powered or under powered but it would give reason to craft better knock down shields and actually take the time to search for a better knock down shields as well. 

This is just an idea that popped into my head as I feel like it could bring a new aspect/strategy to the game and actually give more meaning to the knock down shield, which right now is not exactly a “I NEED A BETTER KNOCK DOWN SHIELD AHHH”. 

what do you guys think?

  • honestly i think your idea is very interesting and unique, sadly i dont see gibby's bubble changing anytime soon but as the bubble is its pretty ridiculous

    Yeah I know what you mean,

    it’s been in the talks forever. Like cross progression, private lobbies, level cap/prestige. 

    obviously those are a lot more important than a Gibby re work but hopefully one day they can shift up the Meta in comp. Would be a cool re work but one can only suggest!

  • @Team_ThicThese are interesting ideas, they could always either allow Crypto’s EMP to destroy his bubble or add EMP grenades to counter Gibralter Bubbles but I’m not exactly sure about that

    I know Crypto’s drone counters Wattson with an EMP but I think her pylon would destroy the grenade, emp grenade would be a nerf for caustic/rampart, it would also destroy rev’s totem, loba’s market, and maybe even disable a legend’s abilities for like 10 seconds or less

    I'm actually surprised the crypto's drone can't destroy the bubble since it destroys pretty much all other deplorables
