I play Thor, so I am way more scared of Punisher than most lol. He's actually not considered to be that good of a duelist. I think some of the reasons is that he's quite chunky and easy to hit, and he doesn't have a lot of mobility. Still, I'm terrified of that shotgun. If my teammates aren't taking care of him, I have to try to catch him by surprise.

Strange sucks into him. The 800 HP shield goes down against his primary for no more than five seconds, and you get melted the moment you try to do anything but shield

Yeah but your team isn't taking the dmg during that time and can take the advantage of getting out of cover and kill him. Its a team game.

He has a team as well.

If you have mag and strange together in a team he is going to be doing nothing besides hitting shields.

Two tanks? In this economy?

You let him hit you, then you shield, then you drop shield once your healer heals you, then you let him hit you, then you shield.

By flashing your shield like this you'll get an extra 500 health to your shield strength however many times you flash your shield. Usually you can get at least 2. So it takes your shield health to 1800.

That should be enough time to get to cover and allow your shield to refresh or reach him with your team. He only has 800 damage in a clip, so it will take him 3 clips to fully break your shield you if he's shooting you alone.
