Buff Shieldman Kit

[The_Witch_Pikmin]

I think most of us agree that Shieldman is weaker than it should be. Compared to what it originally was, it's weak. Getting four hit killed by regular soldiers is shocking considering that it is a melee class. My thoughts on ways to buff it include: Giving it more armour (to that or a little less of Spearman), giving it's shield knockback 1 (like it originally had in V1 of Empire War). Both would be ideal in my opinion as it is too situational a class.

So, what will it be. Or do you think it's balanced. Comment below, like and subscribe.

If shieldman is to get a buff, there should be counterclasses with axes to disable shields, since every class in the game currently has a counter class.

I made an axeman class suggestion, but I can't find where it went :/

I do think It would need a counter if buffed, but it needs to be buffed as right now, almost every class is its counter. Even archers can beat it to death with their wooden swords easily.
