The reworked Irelia deals extra damage to shields due to her passive. So that's a start at least.

I think they're testing the waters for that kind of a thing before they dive headfirst into it. Which is smart.

Honestly just nerfs shields. It'll just become another balance nightmare like healing and executioner

I'd rather have an anti-shield stacking mechanic (like Locket now) or how summoner heal's reduction works. Technically, damage is counter to shields, which counter damage. Shields increase effective HP by a large amount due to resistances existing as a thing. They need to either reduce the duration of shields so that you need better timing vs burst, or just reduce effectiveness of any shields past the 1st.
