The Shield Dropping against Crypto Really needs to go

It ain't fun to use Crypto if enemies are just going to drop their shields and rush you harder. That 1-2 second stun does nothing either. Crypto's EMP needs buffs man.  I don't know how but if it d...

    Today's Patch made it damage drop shields. I'm going back to Crypto again for sure a bit. At least his EMP ain't worthless anymore.

@MEME_REEEEEEEEEE Wattson's ult has 150 health and falls to 100. Gibby's Shield Dome can't be destroyed as it takes unlimited amount of damage. The EMP can destroy the device the projects the dome shield but that only happens when you EMP inside the dome which is pointless. You should be able to still EMP outside the Dome, completly destroying it since it's a shield. Same thing towards Gun Shield, it's a shield. If a Gibby is Aiming Down Sights and an EMP goes off, the Gun Shield should take -50 as well.

Wattson's Ultimate should honestly shoot down his drone. That would be such a tiny albeit useful bonus for her. If it's not going to do that though since it's not "ordinance", that EMP should totally shut down her Pylon. It's not an issue of health but of functionality on how an EMP would effect such a device.

There's a rock, paper, scissors balance strategy at play in most games.. if her ultimate counters Gibby / Caustic / Bang it's only fair that Crypto counters her electricity based ultimate as well.

    Yeah that makes sense that Crypto’s ultimate should be able to destroy Watson’s ultimate in order to balance things out across all legends and their abilities. And it would be fair in return for her ultimate to be able to shoot down the drone if it gets too close as a balance to that change. It makes even more sense, because it’s also already very easy for Watson to regenerate her ultimate anyways, as long as she is carrying an ultimate accelerant.

      @SadronanThat would render her useless, wattson ultimate can be destroyed with 1 mag why the hell can an EMP ultimate that charges up 3x faster than other ultimates be given that much power. I think his EMP should have a longer charge time but able to temporarily  disable weapons instead of the body shields
