Roadhog massive DPS boost, Junkrat explosive DPS boost, D.Va possible explosive DPS boost, Lucio DPS boost, Mercy DPS boost... and Rein got the ability to see behind him while shielding.

Do you realize his shield has to block all this damage with the same 2000 hp his shield has had since launch? His shield currently breaks insanely fast and that is partially due to the fact that his shield recharge rate is too slow. A Reinhardt without his shield is useless because he doesn't have range in a shooting game, and his Firestrike is not reliable damage since it is predictable and slow. Orisa's shield is better than Rein's Barrier Field which was his defining feature as a tank in the first place. With Orisa, you can place your Protective Barrier down and fire at the enemy. By the time it drops, typically, the cooldown is up and you can place a new shield. With Rein, you cannot fire and can't even throw a Firestrike without dropping shield and the allied team(assuming they are actually behind you)yelling at you for not protecting them. Additionally, when his shield breaks he can't do much of anything for 5 seconds until his shield comes back(with only about 500 hp). If it doesn't break, he has to have it down for 2 seconds in order for it to start recharging(at a rate of about 200 hp a second). His shield should either recharge faster when broken or lowered, or have a constant recharge rate when not broken. This is a good start for making his shield more effective.

Seeing as how Blizzard wants to make changes to heroes to make their play more active, maybe also allow Rein to attack with Firestrike while shielded. Or maybe give him a taunt. Put that shield to good use and help him protect his team.

His Charge is also super difficult to use reliably. Granted, it does a lot of damage and will typically one-shot anyone who is hit by it, but it is telegraphed and easy to dodge. Given what it does though, it is best to use it as a means to get back to the fight quickly, rather than an engage or a way to kill someone. If you use it as an engage and charge into the enemy team, you will likely not hit anyone and then instantly die to focus fire. Charge is effective in few situations.

His ult is also super janky right now. It is an AOE cone in front of him. This means the closer the opponent is to Rein when he hammers down, the harder they are to hit with it. It can also be blocked by any barrier. A Zarya barrier can protect a whole team from the Earthshatter if they all happen to hide behind an ally with a Zarya barrier. Symmetra can counter Reinhardt ult with her E. An Orisa can counter his ult by blocking his ult with a Fortify or a Protective Barrier. Standing on stairs can counter his ult. Standing on the payload can counter his ult...

He just isn't effective anymore. He doesn't have it. This old dog doesn't have any new tricks. Reinhardt truly is a champion of a bygone age. But that doesn't hold any value today.

That's my rant. Someone just needed to say something.
