Tired of playing burn the shield down all day with a team and runs double shields.

Bold idea: Nerf Rein and Sigma to Orisa’s level.
How dare these tanks get mobile barriers that can adapt to situations faster and easier?
I would dare to say that Orisa is at the level of chore to play tanks like Winston, Dva…
Why only Rein and Sigma can be generically applicable in more situations than the others? Nerf them already and homogenize the tank roster now!

I just think shields are boring to play as and boring to play against. It’s not that all the tanks need to be similar, but it would be nice if they made the game less boring. I would assume if they got their shields nerfed in reality then they would get something in return like more mobility, more damage, or more non-barrier tankiness.

No, it doesn’t. It’s fine. Double shield breaks so fast anyway. Why are people complaining about this?

That does not work against McCree/Ashe/Ana/Brig/Sig
4 stuns + dynamite + long range burst damage will make quick work of Reaper.

gotta be honest
I think that the counters to dual sheilds just need a buff…
there is a reason we only saw it come around when all the counters were some of the weaker heros

Go D.Va and bomb ! Oh wait… D.Va is a throw pick…
Of course, that’s the purpose.
The most popular tanks are: D.Va, Zarya, Hog & Ball, why? Because they are mobile or they have potentially fast lethality.
People play barrier tanks by necessity, at least most of the barrier players do it because it is way more advantageous, has a longer uptime, consistency and stuff, rather than a short timed bubble, matrix or a body-tanking ability.
Aren’t people happy they gutted Mei though?
I mean she was being used to help the tanks out so that you didn’t need to run 2 barriers to survive

So let me get this straight.
The problem is double shield but you can’t run shield/tank busters because of
And that forces you to run a McCree Ashe Ana yourself but they suck at breaking shields. It seems to me that maybe if 2 of those did not invalidate the entire subset of dps heroes that are meant to destroy shields this wouldn’t be a problem.
zarya is so op and sigma sucks

This is true,just pick bastion or junkrat and shields dies really fast
I’m so sad sigma has been gutted, only fun barrier tank imo.
I agree these 2 characters with sigs absorb need a look at , what would be nice is 2 different groups for the tanks, at shield group and offtank group. that way we would only have 1 shield in the game at a time.
If that happens I’m not playing tank anymore

I think Sigma’s synergy with other barrier tanks is the problem, not the barrier health. If you nerf both of their barriers, you just make them worse on their own. Are we gonna forget about what happened to Orisa?
If they nerf Rein, Sigma’s pickrate will drop too since he is paired with Rein most of the time.
But first and foremost they should nerf Genji, farming free SR for pocketing the onetrick Genji’s in my teams is so cheap amd watching the enemy Genji whipe my team is also trash, Blade charges too fast.
Nerf Genji first, then we can talk about nerfing Rein.

How about, instead of trashing even more heroes, we look at half of the roster that got dumpstered who were made to deal with this exact problem?

Am I the only one that is noticing an arise of Dive comeback? Because I see more dive comps rather than doubleshield.
