We need item that counters shields and any kind of buffs.

An item that targets an enemy champion and makes him immune to any allied buffs like shields, heals, Lulu ults, speed ups etc.

The amount of counterplay there's to a comp with shields is non existent. Maybe there could be a debuff similar to griveous wounds that applies for shields.

Riot mentions counterplay every single moment they can but for a tank/assassin that wants to kill a target he has to deal with shields, heals etc with no way to stop these, if said champion could build an item that made his target immune to those we might even see some champions become more viable.

CC counters shields fairly well, in that it allows you to deal more damage. Besides are shields not supposed to be counters to damage?

We don't need counters for counters.

CC counters everything.

Are we even playing the same game to say we don't need counters for shields?

CC does not counter Olaf or Black Shield.

Oh my god CC doesn't affect two abilities in the game, better point it out and try to be a smart ass.

The same game, yes, but we're clearly not playing it in the same way. Just who would you give a shield counter to? Who should get the ability to make another champion's skills useless without any amount of outplaying involved?

There's no outplaying by using shields either.

There's no amount of outplaying when you use Zhonyas either. But apparently these are fine.

How is convincing an enemy to waste their defensive resources before you use your offensive ones not considered an outplay?

How is convincing an enemy to waste their offensive resources also not an outplay?

What exactly do you consider an outplay to be? If you're top lane and your jungle Nocturne uses his ult to gank bot, and you charge in on your opponent in an attempt to scare them into flashing to their tower you have just attempted an outplay. It's not a fancy show of skills, but it is a play that successfully denies your opponent of some resource. This is what an outplay is.
