🛡️ Shield-Centric Tactics
🔸 Barrier Value Through Choke and Payload Phases
Held shield aggressively in Phase 1 streets and alley, soaking Bastion turret fire and suppressive poke
Mitigation was timed, not passive — blocked high-value bursts, then dropped to recharge
Led the push during payload escort, absorbing enemy spam while supports rotated behind
🔸 Earthshatter Execution
Waited for key CC windows (post-Sombra hack, post-turret cooldown) to shatter freely
Each Shatter was converted into direct kills or team pressure — no whiffs or waste
Final Shatter in the corridor near final checkpoint sealed the push
🔄 Tempo Control and Team Synergy
DPS (Mei & Cassidy) used your shield wall to hold space and poke efficiently
Support line (Moira + Kiriko) maintained uptime thanks to consistent frontline protection
You staggered shield use to allow Kiriko better angles and Suzu windows
You weren’t just soaking damage — you were enabling play flow across all roles.
🔥 Play of the Game
Occurred mid-push between checkpoints 2 and 3
Shatter landed on 3, followed by Fire Strike → swing → charge sequence
Enemy support line wiped, tipping the fight in your team’s favor
🎯 Tactical Outcome
7.3K MIT stacked with the prior Busan match = near capstone of your 40K Epyon Defense goal
Team was empowered by your presence, not just protection
Rein fundamentals — spacing, barrier management, ult timing — were applied with near-perfect rhythm
🧠 Final Debrief: Shield First, Victory Follows
“No flash. Just impact. The hammer moved the map — and the match.”
This match showcased a Rein not for style, but for strategic execution:
Calm, pressure-driven gameplay
Effective shielding in key fights
Game awareness that kept momentum alive from start to finish |
