You can't guarantee a crit, so you can't design requiring a critted shield to survive an attack. If you want one, you need to be able to force crits manually. With sprint, the issue was that since its now on cooldown and you can't pop TP abilities to force it on demand, there might be issues.

The sprint thing here was more "Yoshi, don't make promises you can't really keep." I got nailed a couple of times with the last couple of attacks despite being point blank on the guys backside running with the rest, and I remembered him saying this. he has a bad habit of saying things in interviews like this, and it can kind of annoy people.
