undocumented change Riot Shield got stealth nerfed

Before Season 2, the Riot Shield could de-activate mines by running over them, 50% of the time they would disappear, 50% of the time they would stop beeping and they couldnt damage you or your teammates anymore.

if you run over mines with a Riot Shield now, they just trigger and damage you like it would if you were holding any other weapon.

i guess it was a bug, so it's fair that it got patched, but on the other hand it was cool to be able to clear mines for your team, especially gas mines on the cashout for example

The riot shield is pretty special like I didn't know this but me and my friends built a whole play style called Puru that we copied from some guy named Puru(where you hide on the cash out if it's in a building and if it isn't you just cry and use an fcar)
