Was removing the prologue shield training really needed, despite Season 1 having its Shield training debut. IMO, this was a bad choice to make because the Prologue Shield was as close as players were going to get in trying out new team comp’s without worrying about competition. If using Shield to tank was the reason for removing it, then wouldn’t it had benefitted everyone involved if they just untethered mmr from Shield?
Don’t get me wrong. Playing through Shield again is fun (about the only thing that’s fun atm), but I also used Shield to test out new combos without it effecting my chances at anything. Now with Shield part of Season 1, it’s not so much training as it is just a 25 d pvp event.
Please put back something into prologue (or wherever) a noncompetitive test site.
Anyone else feeling they could have left Prologue Shield in?
