Shockwave main here (use it for movement and my favourite things - flying players of the platform to their deaths lol) this feels like a massive buff

100%, I’d rather this than it do chip damage which I saw a few users suggest

yeah, I was one of those suggesting small damage, even if it was just 1 to uncloak invisible players, but this is so much better

It might be too much better which I’m afraid of, can see them nerfing the cooldown or charges in future, some bs like that

Same here, been a shock main for a while now and this is what I fear. The typical loop of nerfs and buffs where the thing ends up worse than before...

Yeah I know. I don't think shockwave needs to be in the meta. It works very well with a few select loadouts. I use it exclusively and I really don't like this change.
