So the problem with rampart is that she is here to encourage camping, and by vamping I mean that she can just stay at one place camping forever and putting walls. For exemple you van take the high gr...

@Igeere1 I find the problem to be just her cover. With a team she's very, VERY strong. Throw a wall. Wait for deployment. Now you have a one way wall of cover that buffs damage. Typically the enemy team will back off because the trade here is obvious. 0 damage VS bonus damage. Grenades don't work well. Threw two firewall grenade thingies (forgot name) at one wall and it took a fat minute for the wall to go down. Then Rampart literally threw another wall up and started t-bagging as we tried to break that one. It's a HUGE waste of ammo after they already nerfed ammo stacks, then nerfed grenade spam as well. Very unbalanced release timing of a legend. So anyway. Throw a wall, other team HAS to back off, throw up a wall on there choke because obviously they can't stay in one spot, waste ammo on an unfair trade, so throw up a mini gun on the same choke or where they need to move. Sure once you break the wall, whoever is on turrents is easy picking but those walls don't go down ex in the first place.

      I feel like gibby is actually a good counter if you find yourself out in the open and a sheila is just lighting you up you can throw down a dome give your teamates time to heal and figure out what to do you can also try throwing a gibby shield over her turret to prevent it from shooting out while you retreat to a longer range to counter sheila. You can kinda do that with bangalore as her smoke can hide you or obscure their vision on shelia. Caustics gas grenade is also a good counter as well seeing as of how they are stationary on the turret throw it get inside and finish them off if the gas didnt kill them. all in all she is actaully balanced you just need to know how to counter her a bunch any grenades seem to work very well espically throwing a bunch of thermitesfollowed by frags and or arcstars.

        @babyaga239 Encountered a team hiding in a Amped Cover fort on a hill, while suppressing with Sheila and two Devotions. Threw Gibby's ult right into their little bunker and laughed at the fleeing campers.
