I usually use a random trigger, but most of the time it's the right trigger. Although, my can almost always powershield when I use left trigger, but it's kind of 50/50 with my right hand trigger. o_o;

No. It just feels to cumbersome with all the button presses I'm already doing in my right hand that I leave shielding for the left. Been that way since smash64.

I use whichever finger is easiest to use at the time. Ever since I got into Armored Core, I've lost preference in which hand I use for shoulder button functions when I'm playing a videogame. I'd imagine that's a good thing.

I set my shield to both "A" and "B," so that I never EVER miss a shield.

I think that's probably the best way to do it...you should definitely try.
