Oh, you mean the shields that never really work unless a team is bad at confirming kills or it's a mess of a fight?

Cause if you use the shield, they know to thirst you, and if you don't, you likely get shot down by people trying to get some kill or assist credit.

In 400+ hours of the game, I have had gold shields work for me ONCE.

@Kyldenar Unfortunately gold knockdowns can literally make you win even if you lost a game, just think when last circle is closing: you fight a team, you knock everyone but you're low hp, while one of them has a gold knockdown you try to finish him but one tick of the zone is enough to kill you. Result you're dead and that team you managed to defeat actually won. I know it's situational but still i'd be still mad if that happens to me lol.

This is a silly reason Valorant is more successful.  Which it may be in ways, but is not in others.  

I mean, I'm not a super Apex fan either, if you aren't familiar with my posts but you throw your credibility out the window when you cite non-reasons.
