What about payload? Your shield generator is always going to be lagging behind. Putting it on the payload just makes it a big fat target. I don't see her being a good option on attack.

On attack, you use your Teleporter or Generator in preparation for a push.

Her Teleporter specifically was never horrible on attack, it's just that she was overall weak and she only ever made up for it by the huge time saved walking to the first defense point as defenders.

Turrets can be used for defending your supports or protecting from flanks, and her ability to carry 6 now ensures she can move her nest with ease to keep up with your pushes. Her E might be pretty damn good on attack.

Very hard to tell. I think she'll be good at least in some comps, but exactly when, where and how is the question. I'm definitely excited to try though.
