    How exactly would you 'nerf' it without removing it completely?

    it's mega baitable and only really works against people who play poorly.
    So maybe step your game up.

    It is perfect the way it is. You suffer very hard punishment if they bait it out.

    BP can only pull his flip repeatedly if you are too aggresive try to feint your attack and then gb him

    Bulwark counter is perfectly fine. It's one of the best things they put in the game aesthetically and gameplay wise.

    It's much less reliable than hyperarmor...at least on console. Play as a BP and see its only kinda useful in certain situations. And most of those situations a hero can faint to or just gb.

    In my opinion as a shugoki main the flip should be automatic upon contact. Latency is an issue with it as well as false reads from the indicator.

    Also once in bulwark you are highly subseptable to GB...like even during the unblockable stage.

    If anything his bulwark needs a buff to compete with automatic mechanics.

    The difference between shugoki and BP is night and day.

    I'm not talking about wardens bash or shugoki hug. I'm talking about the difference between playing shugoki vs BP. It makes no sense to try to bulwark Shugoki's mix-up cuz he can just cancel to gb at any time.

    You can throw a random light if you think he will gb. Or use my personal way of playing which I developed as a pk main: when confused, just zone. Works quite well for bp zone now that it has no gb vulnerability, hits shugoki right out no matter what he is choosing from the mixup, and even if he dodges, it's still a mixup, not guaranteed punish.
    Bulwark is just one of the various tools he has, and while it might be the strongest, it's not for every situation. Against shugoki, the main use is going to fullblock after a blocked opener, which makes the headbutt totally useless.
