I noticed that 9/10 times i usually die to >150 damage, so i figured to try out games where i only buy Light shields
From then i found out that my death rate had little to no change + i was able to buy rifles a bit more frequently now that i save 600 credits per round - a nice eco boost while sacrificing very little
The few times i think Heavy shields is recommended is when the enemy team uses guns that tickle you like pistols and spectres in bonus rounds - since you're more likely to die from smaller dmg. Alot of times the bigger chunky guns takes the same amount of bullets to kill you regardless of shields.
Something i'd like to share from the past week of playing

I didn’t come to this subreddit to see you guys complaining about how you’re losing “too much” elo. Also notice how the people posting about how they’re losing too much elo are always iron-golds?
