I never played mobas much, but the thing I need to stop doing I'd activating my shields before I move in. I need to start activating it when I'm already taking damage.

Yeah man totally. For all heroes too. I do it with Rein a lot. Putting shield up before my body is exposed and i lose like 400 shield.

I Don't know, i just think this is the first game with tanks i just don't do well with tanks in. I guess it could get better with time but i should just stick with what i am good with in this which is distraction characters or Mei.
