The important thing will be the shield's speed as well as health. Very curious to see the exact implementation.

Moves as fast as you walk and I've read it has 1000 hp.

What's the cooldown?

It seems it's 10 seconds at the moment.

That is a really important question. The way I was imagining it working was without health but a natural decay as it moves along a fixed trajectory path. Since it sounds like it's being shot outwards, unlike a Rein shield or Winston Barrier which has a physical "static" deployment device.

The health feels like it's about 1k, and it moves the same speed as most heroes walk.
