So after reading a few posts it seems the argument is that blade was mostly shut down by shotguns and now that shotguns are less viable, it could have potentially led to a indirect blade buff (harder to shut down). This does make sense but what people don't realize is that there was already an easy way to counter blade. Bungie says that they didn't want blade rampaging on the rest of team after a kill. What most teams do anyway is just shoot the bladedancer right after it kills someone. This stops health regen and usually kills the bladedancer (assuming they were low on health)
Thoughts?

Now that shields don't regen completely you'll like be able to get ohk'd after regening health
