Remove the knockdown phase

Yeah. I'm serious. Because in the end, whether the knockdown is there or not yields zero difference nowadays. Everyone - and I mean literally everyone - immediately kills you after you go down regar...

I think that would be an interesting idea for the legendary knockdown shield . I think we all can agree that of all legendary items, the knockdown shield is the worst. After 10k matches, I could almost count on my fingers how many times Ive actually got a self res through and managed to do something meaningful afterwards. So many things out of your control must happen if you will have any success with it, like the enemy team getting third partied or something like that. Reworking it by removing the self res but making it a bubble that shields you from all directions until the HP is broken might sound too OP but I dont think it would be. Your team must still win the fight in order for it to be useful. 

But imo, I dont think all knockdown shields should work this way for the reasons I mentioned in my earlier posts.

@Balladalidila The legendary is the only one that you actually try to AVOID using, lol. Because the moment the enemy sees it's gold, you're toast. That's the only one that I think should be reworked. The rest work fine if you know what you're doing and your team is playing at least minimally as a team.

They're only supposed to be a last resort, not an actual survival tool.

For the gold one, I'm thinking it should cloak you while you're rezzing as an extra safeguard. After all, it's very rare, so it should do something special. What do you think?
