Banshee's Veil was nerfed because everyone was buying it and the refresh timer was short enough that people could afford to just stall for 20 seconds and wait for it to come up. What is any mage suppose to do against a front line of Banshee's Veil when both of the enemy's tanks can just alternate blocking your engage on a 20 second refresh timer. There is nothing particularly wrong with Black Shield - it's just frustrating for certain champions to play against.

I could probably except something similar to Braum's Unbreakable, if she has to have balance changes, where it will block one piece of crowd control (or maybe even one whole ability, and then just mitigate damage for the remaining shield strength) - however, I honestly think the game needs the crowd control immunity shield (especially while champions like Vi are still terrorizing the field).
