You are part of Riot's balance team, you are told you can make anyone you want have a shield breaking mechanic as long as you think it is fair for the champion. Which champions would you put it on and which abilities would you choose for those champions?

Fully charged Sion Q Evelynn when she procs W with her first Q Basically some unreliable spells/combos that you risk wasting Defiitely not some targeted AA reset that everyone is using already, or an AOE that hits half of screen

rene having it is just stupid, im ok with blitz, but the mech in general is stupid and shouldnt exist also SoS passive is dumb and needs to be removed, prior to season 8 SoS passive would never have been allowed

Blitzcrank's ult, that was a good Idea, since he's gonna have more lockdown and touch of death moments with his ult busting shields. and it would be a hard counter to enchanters.

Vi's Q dealing extra damage to shields, not insta-kill them.

Olaf's Ult making his AA's deal extra shield damage and his E ignores them.

Not shield breaking, but let the first strike of Camille's Precision Protocol deal bonus damage to shields, makes sense in the context of her hiting the correct points

None. Why give them something that contributes to the burst meta even more? shields are one of the only things that deny others from deleting you in less than a second if timed properly.

I think stuff like this would actually belong more on Vanguards and enchanters

None; the idea of anything instantly breaking shields, especially with threshold executes (Urgot, Pyke) ignoring them already.

Extra damage vs Shields would be fine, and in fact would make more sense for Renekton if the player builds heavy AD.

Reduced duration for the shield or a delayed auto break would also be fine.

Even the ability to deny or reduce incoming shields would be good; like a grievous wounds for shields. Blitz would be better this way since all a support has to do is wait for him to pop his ult to shield.
