There are too much shield counters in the game, so I would like to give an Idea(or try to give one) on how to balance things out! Feel Free to leave any feedback and correct any mistakes!
Josuke is a 1 Star Frontline Tank Hero, whose Trial Team is Red.
Healing allies with the same intensity he punches enemies, Josuke will show them why diamonds are said to be unbreakable.

Skillset
Distorted Restoration
-
Passive: Right after doing his normal basic attack, Josuke will punch the ally with the least HP, healing them for Y HP. Josuke cannot heal himself with this skill. Josuke gains Y Armor and Y Reality whenever he heals an ally.
-
Active: Crazy Diamond punches the ground in front of him multiple times, distorting it, which creates a barrier, applying a Shield with X HP for 15 seconds to all frontline allies and Josuke. Also, when Josuke uses this skill, nearby enemies will be Petrified. Petrified has the same effects of Frozen, but Petrified enemies are only released after being dealt X damage, and then are stunned for 10 seconds.
Entropy & Enthalpy 
Normal Damage
Each 4 basic attacks, Josuke goes after the Hero with the least HP, and punches them 5 times. If it’s an ally, they are healed by Y HP per punch, if it’s an enemy, they are dealt Y damage per punch. This skill will heal 10% more or deal 10% more damage per Armor and Reality buff Josuke has.
Shine On You
All shields in your field gain 10% Damage Negation per Armor and Reality buff Josuke has, up to 50%. Damage that was initially done to a shield cannot be done to Josuke and his allies. Once every 5 seconds, when a shield is destroyed or vanishes, Josuke can restore it with X Extra Max HP.
Crazy Diamond
When Josuke reaches 1 HP, he hears an enemy insulting his hair, which makes him Berserk for 12 seconds. While Berserk, Josuke cannot flinch, gains X Basic Damage, +75% Attack Speed, can’t heal allies and will punch enemies 10 times with Entropy & Enthalpy . Berserk applied by this skill cannot be Removed, Stolen or blocked by Fatigue.
Diamond is Unbreakable
All shields on your side of the field also gain the Armor and Reality buffs granted to Josuke by Distorted Restoration’s passive.
While Berserk, Josuke cannot be disabled. Whenever a disable is blocked by this skill, the Berserk’s length is extended by 2 seconds.
The Armor and Reality buffs granted by Distorted Restoration cannot be removed or stolen, nor blocked by Fatigue.
The Armor and Reality buffs’ immunity might fail if Josuke is above level Z.
