All-Star shield nerfs where unneeded.
Now he has an giant shield, that breaks in a blink and takes 30 seconds to use again, it's trash. Why does his shield have almost the same HP from Brainz's? So frustrating.

@GutmanSca I share your frustration. Now that his Dummy Shield isn’t as effective and breaks much quicker, using the Health Regeneration Delay upgrade is an absolute must. If I’m running low on health, pop the shield and with faster health regen, at least the downgrade isn’t as noticeable. Honesty, even with the nerfing All-Star got, he’s still an absolute beast!
- @DeAtHaDDiCtiOn5 Allstar was fine just needed damage drop off...his imp punt was already useless and his sprint tackle is like threading a needle...they cut his bleeps off.
This information means that the developers kind of did the opposite with the All-Star's shield, from originally what they were going to do:
- The developers were going to reduce the shield's time but reduce the cooldown of the shield as well, but it looks like the shield's cooldown time has been increased, instead of reduced.
- The shield lost some of its maximum health. It was fine as it was, it didn't really need a health nerf and was quite easily destroyed.
I've got to agree with all of you, the nerfs to his shield were not particularly necessary, I hope that his shield gets a buff at some point into the future, I used him today and his shield still seems completely usable, but it's hard to rely on your shield now, especially because of its cooldown.
Im glad the all star shield got nerf got tired of two all stars spamming their shields while their buddy's destroy the enemy team with 80s action hero whil in their shields on a choke point.
