I've been thinking: What do you think Shard's backstory will be in the new timeline? (Just so you know, Ian Flynn has said before that he has 'plans' for the metallic blue blur.)
Looking at the events so far, he may be a villain again or just never rebuilt at all. Both of those options would suck for me cause I like his character. I also want to see Knuckles and Finitevus again as well.
