[Fun Idea, not Feedback] Newcastle Ult Synergy w/ Other Legends

Firstly:

I am noting this simply as an idea and not as serious feedback, because the suggestions I make to his kit in this thread are solely a "what-if" scenario. So don't take this too seriously.

Idea:

With certain Legends, Newcastle's ult can be enhanced depending on the Legends on his team. There will be some obvious caveats to this, for the sake of balance. After seeing a few posts in the forums about his kit being a bit lackluster (after the infinite jump range fix), I was wondering what would make him more fun to play. Then I thought of Legend synergies. These synergies should not be taken seriously.

Rules:

  1. Any enhancement by another Legend must be done by physically interacting with his shield wall once deployed
  2. Only one Legend can apply their synergy at a time
  3. Not all Legends will have a synergy with his shield wall for the sake of balance, or due to their kit having a lack of synergistic capability
  4. A Legend adding synergy to his wall loses fifty percent of their ult charge. If they do not have 50%, they cannot add the synergy.
  5. This post should not be taken too seriously.

Legend Synergies:

  • Ash: A Legend that hops over the wall becomes snared
  • Bangalore: No synergy
  • Bloodhound: Digital threat when looking in the wall cutouts
  • Caustic: No synergy
  • Crypto: Anyone jumping over the wall has a mini EMP, degrading their evo shield health
  • Fuse: Landmines on the interior of the wall, three total
  • Gibraltar: No synergy
  • Horizon: No synergy
  • Lifeline: Passive healing at half of DOC speed while behind the wall
  • Loba: No synergy
  • Mad Maggie: Drill flames protrude from the wall for 45 seconds, four total
  • Mirage: Jumping through the wall creates a duplicate of you on your original heading
  • Octane: Bumper pads on the outside of the wall that repel an enemy a reasonable distance
  • Pathfinder: No synergy
  • Rampart: Amped cover in between the high spots of the wall
  • Revenant: Any enemies that jump over the wall are muted
  • Seer: Exhibit visibility thirty feet from the wall
  • Valkyrie: No synergy
  • Wattson: Electric current runs through the whole wall as is implemented today
  • Wraith: No synergy

If you are taking this post seriously, you're doing it wrong.
