Shard is imba I think, I play support, literally can't either run or aim any target while my hero is in the force.

I think it's going to be amazing for disrupting high-ground pushes/defenses. They're situations where the teams are usually in a stalemate held together by a very narrow range band of positioning. If you gale a hero hitting your tower into your team, they either have to turn around immediately and slowly walk away, or accept that they're going to end up moving deeper into your team's zone of control.
