I tested out Ganondorf's Warlock Blade, which has higher shield damage than Warlock Punch, and a non-reversed Blade almost breaks Shields, just like how it always was. If there's a difference in shield damage it's quite small.This is true, but testing seems to suggest that you stop taking the shield damage over time during both hitlag freeze and shieldstun. I could not create a situation where a victim's shield broke during shieldstun or hitlag freeze; it was always beforehand.
Also, as a non-competitive side note, since the time since I last checked Warlock Blade it now makes a fancy new sound effect! *SHIIING*
