Part of the problem is very unhealthy mechanic of burn - damage over time on pyro. Every raider or mex or windmill it touches just dies.

I suggested long time ago to rework all fire to make area damage over time instead a unit status - more kodachi style. This way only sluggish units or statics would suffer from fire.

I think that mostly Pyro is the problem, not only for shields. It's a riot raider and its main problem are static defenses. I think that it could be more reliant on its jump ability and less generalist with changes:

5% speed reduction and 5-10% hp increase for compensation. HP increase is optional, as combined with jump ability it would make it better against statics. Yes I'm aware that speed reduction is non-linear, while hp above certain treshold is more linear.

In this picture, Shields look the worst as they are the slowest and most expensive counters. Your economy most likely will get raided.

Speaking of racketeer, I think in comparison to its previous state it's more healthy to the game and less reliable for the user. Maybe decreasing its cost by 5% could be discussed?
