Change the bonus you get when shielding a spell to % dmg reduction instead of att spd. Or some form or defensive stat. Blocking 1 ability is great in 1v1 but in teamfight its pretty useless so you end up dieing seconds later after ulting, since noc has no natural tankiness for a all in champ.

My answer as someone who has been playing Nocturne since season 2 is thanks, but no thanks.
While I do want some change to his w, I don't want him to lose the attack speed, since it's just so good.
Faustavian1 votesAs someone who loves to play nocturne, I cannot agree with this, the attack speed is what enhances your job as an assassin (Primary role)
The passive helps, but I believe the shields job is to punish trying to cc you by letting you deal out more damage.
You are not a bruiser (if you are, thats still a spell shield.)
for example: 
blocking 
knockup while going in for a gank, making it a more effective one w/ the bonus attack speed.

Agree with you. But most noc that i see build kinda bruiserish. Assassin noc doesnt have the burst since he is aa based so he needs tankiness to do his job in teamfights and he doesnt have the tools to be a squishy melee in a teamfight like other champs. In 1v1 or ganks the att spd is great that i agree with.
Faustavian1 votesI find that in teamfights, I do best split pushing tbh. Your Q's damage steroid helps with that. and then you can ult into the teamfight to cleanup if necessary.
And for the burst issue, I find that Noc has pretty Decent burst with just
And since your Q+E help chase down targets bursting is really only second priority when you can stick to them like glue.
