Good example why you shouldnt resign just cause your enemy has 2/3 Map and 2 times the eco; cause it ain't over until it's over :)

or

if Shieldball hungry == better run for your live ;)))

Is probably a good explanation. In casual matches everything is possible.

If shield ball hungry stop suiciding already and build a counter. Firewalker(or other arti), stiletto, cloaked roaches, licho, catapult, bantha.

You're right of course. I thought that sumo would have been a counter but was very wrong. Firewalker would have been sniped by licho, but I could have tried skuttle.

Sumo will work wonders against light to medium shieldballs, it generally has to weaken them slowly by stealing one unit at a time, not stomp midst into the ball and die. Use the jump to retreat, not to attack.

Sumo and moderator are some of the best Licho killers, when properly positioned no air player will dare to come near you.

Skuttle doesn't work against shieldball unless supported by an eraser (so it can cloak). Even then it's less efficient and more likely to fail than roach.

Once firewalker is too lightweight (fragile), a switch to catapult would probably be a good idea. Ask your teammates for assistance.

or pene the shit out of it. not as costly and quicker as cata for this use-case. shieldblob is also too slow to catch penes. cloak them if you fear lichos.

But yes, any artillery works.

"not stomp midst into the ball and die. Use the jump to retreat, not to attack."

Uh, it seems you did not actually watch the replay. I did not even once forward-jumped.

No I didn't watch the replay, I'm trying to give general hints as to how to play against shield balls. So don't take any of my comments as direct feedback to this game.
