Also you can't move a rooted bramble in 1v1 just like you can't move a shelled BS. Why should you be able to in 2v2?
I explained above why it's not quite analogous between bombshell and bramble. But anyway, I agree with you in principle, that yes this would be a decent balance to 2v2 and create more play variety. But I would still be sad to see this change implemented, because mobi/bombshell makes for a very interesting 2v2 experience, there's nothing else that reaches that level of cooperation between 2v2 partners. When would you ever want to warp a bramble, or even a scrambler? Never, probably. The idea here is that the mobi being able to warp the shell is a very cool "team" concept, since you are using the powers of both teams' specials together.
I agree that BS warping and bramble warpin isn't the same. I just think its overpowered. You would still be able to warp unshelled bombshells. Arguably this would require more teamwork because it would be a risky tactic!

I say no. It's part of 2v2 playing. Plus, the new beta has made bramble a little stronger so you have every reason to complain about the V/F combo as the A/S combo.

What? No one complained about a VF combo. The new veggie buff is possibly a disadvantage to veggies especially against scally and mobi, which is what we're talking about here.
I just want more team combos to be viable in 2v2.
And I'm not really complaining... I have no problem using mobi/scally. I would just like more combos to be viable.

No strong opinion, but consistency would be nice. Either
(1) allow mobi'ing rooted bramblers (with no uproot implied)
(2) only allow teleporting *unshelled* bombershells
(3) have mobi'ing uproot/unshell a unit when it is teleported
(note that #3 still saves wit's/time as there's no cost to unshell or no time lost to having to uproot and wait a turn)

I don't think you're supposed to tell that...

What? umm pretty sure they cant attack unless something happened I don't know about. I haven't downloaded an update for outwitters so pretty sure the only recent buff is 3 hp/ 1 wit for kill.
Again, lets keep this on topic. To actually answer your comment, it is a disadvantage to ALL other team combos because it is so powerful and wit efficient. Refer to my above comments for further explanation.

LOL well regardless of any pending updates, I still think that the mobi bombshell thing should be changed.
Either make it so that:
1 Only unshelled BS can be teleported
2 A teleported BS will be unshelled

Restated, mobi/shell is the only team combo worth playing. This means something should change, right? Other team combos should be fun too, right? I believe that's the whole point of this thread.

Agreed - I would just hate for the solution to be making the most fun team combo less fun.
