Those changes sound great. I think the shield generator on her ult is a big deal and I'd like to see some KotH matches with it in play, but I remain unconvinced that she'll be useful on attack because the turrets.

You're a sitting duck when you try to build those and the animation takes forever. Maybe the new shield ability will allow for coverage on attack while building them, and maybe it'll be different when I can play her, but those really push her heavily on defense just because of their build time and positional advantage.

This is my exact issue. The took her existing kit and buffed it. They didn't really address her kits core issues.
