Mad Maggie wrecking ball does not destroy Mobile shield

Since S14 the wrecking ball can destroy Dome of protection (Gibraltar), but why can't destroy Mobile shield (Newcastle) ?

  • @id_waki Gibby OP and popular. Newcastle not OP and not popular. Pretty sure that is the logic behind this, simply put.
  • Also does not instant destroy rampart walls. The change was pretty much exclusively used as a pro specific hard counter for a character barely used outside of pros. Yea its that niche that it tanked gibbys already low pickrate that was boosted almost exclusively by pros.

    ive seen a few of his posts, Kinesis usually knows what hes talking about, or at least has decent takes, this is pretty much it. legend ability matchups dont always make sense, and arent always consistent. getting silenced as crypto means, you cant pilot your drone, but it still reveals things it sees. getting silenced as lifeline means your passive is gone, and you must now manually revive your teammates. crypto EMP destroys wattson pylons and fences, gibby bubbles, caustic traps and a few other things, but last season it wouldnt work against a wattson ult, and its never worked against newcastles walls (to my knowledge). you just kinda have to know your legend and what they can or cannot do. you have to know the matchup. you have to memorize that X ultimate will affect Y tactical but not Z ultimate.
