Shield swapping in combat is cheating.

Might be the dumbest post I've come across.

I think we can agree that there is 1000% chance we wont agree. I think you are comparing cars and potatoes here. 1) legend combo that makes for a very op combination and because of the sound issues back then was super silent and one of the complaints was that they could land on top of you without even a itsy bitsy sound uttered from the jump, there was so many things that was a problem with that combo before it was patched, its still a strong combo only now you have to do it all right to make it work and is still used but now people can hear them coming vs 2) something every legend whatever passive, ultimate tactical or team combination you have can use as a strategy, and just want to say if you had him under full beam that shield swap would not help him one bit, not with the weapon combo you had. If you add 5 second pickup time on armor it would be interesting to see last ring fights, I suspect people would not risk running initiator fights as all would wait for the chance to be 3rd of 4th party because recoup time of the team after fight or 3rd party would be high risk for wipe without access to the dead teams shields.

All the other comments I choose not to comment on... You cant expect me to edit all my answers to accommodate your huge edit long time after the original fume, If you have a beef with tap strafe do that in a different post and keep to original discussion. I acknowledge that you think its a cheat, and I expect you to acknowledge that I dont think so too - discussion went from being a healthy to not so healthy so I'm not participating any longer.

I understand your concern but you should know that you are not the only handicapped player in this game. You mentioned 1.45KD for the season. I can name a few handicapped or infact crippled (actual one-handed players, or no-handed players playing with elbow and foot pedal) that have over 2KD and is Masters for the past seasons. The easiest player to lookup is '86hands' on Twitch or YouTube. Shield swapping whether it be roller or PC has it's own risk. A better player will be able to swap very efficiently and quick, a slower player might get killed going for it. it also comes under strategy knowing which box is available and which is not. This is a team game especially in the BR form and you have to consider the fact that a third party could roll up any time. Every second in this scenario matters. The stun from Wattson fence, the Q times for Wraith, the short animation added to the Valk passive etc all matter, whether you know it or not. At the moment Horizon is the only legend that is not penalized for the "free movement ability" being able to rain fire on enemy players or choose to pop a 10-second Phenix kit while the enemy players simply waste the ammo. Before you make another argument about MnK, I should remind you that the horizon movement tech recently discovered (Streetname: Spindy) is a roller exclusive movement. Seer is meta but it has nothing to do anything with the input other than someone saying what more could you ask for in a game other than wallhacks (Seer) and aimbot (roller aim assist). So there. Think about it. Once again I understand why you are frustrated but maybe because you are spoonfed AI assistance with every crucial part of the game, including aiming so something that required a bit of speed and precision is just annoying for you. The same goes for when you miss. For MnK, if anyone is shooting you while moving, that is a skill and it is called strafe tracking, mirroring, or counter-strafing. I don't think you will understand what it takes to be good at that, especially when the enemy is moving in their own pattern.
