light shield on ranked

do you guys abuse light shield in ranked? this might depend on a person's rank but I'm plat and at least 95% of the time i use light shield its either i get 1 tapped by a vandal, or get body shot to -120. I just wanna know how much of the playerbase spam light shields on ranked

I do almost all the time and I'm g3 peak

instead of buying half shield and vandal, I'd rather use bulldog and full shield, carried my ass to ascendant 3 back then, also buying half shield in rank is not a good idea considering how chaotic everyone is with their utils and gun spams

thats why i wanna know if its based on a person's rank because i believe as i go up people will know how to use their util a lil bit better. Because believe me i barely get punished for spamming light shields on my rank

yes always

Well alot of people still use half shield and vandal even in ascendant lobbies, though alot of them usually die first due to getting spammed through smokes and molly dumped

What do you mean worst, it's literally one of the best guns out there for bonus/half buy rounds, you're guaranteed a kill if you know how to use its ads mode

i dont mind light buying stinger + light and going below 3900 sometimes but I always try make sure youre not playing light armour against an eco with light armour

yep! whenever im against an eco thats usually the point which i use heavy shield because the little damage the opponent can deal accumulates

Immortal 1, half-armor + outlaw meta abuse when I can’t full + rifle.
Never ecos (it can payoff), might be seen as a L teammate in that regard but I dun really care since its just ranked games and I still comms well.
