I'm OK with how Lifeline is currently.
She is strong, as I always would prefer to have a Lifeline.
But I would not call it OP, because grenades exist, and you can still push when she is reviving, the down player does not get back up with full heath.
Lifelines revive is sure OP in some situations, but same can be said about ALL legends in the right situation. How "OP" isnt it to be able to move the entire team from a cover to another cover with no danger what so ever (Wraith)? Or move the team to elevated positions where some legends wont be able to reach (Pathfinder, Horizon, Octane) etc etc etc
And I dont think you have though it through if you think there are no "negative" sides to Lifelines revive. The most obvious one is ofc that it will leave the downed player totally open for a quick execution for any enemy expect the ones right in front of them, rendering his knockdown shield totally useless. A bad Lifeline will hurry to his downed teammates aid and just start a revive in a bad spot and actually effectively kill his teammate who otherwise would have lived and maybe be able to crawl to safety with his knockdown shield.
But there is also ofc the 0.5 seconds when you start the revive when you the lifeline is stuck in the animation. A good enemy player will predict the revive and immediately rush up close to the lifeline and finish her off mid-animation. The visual and auditory effects will ofc also draw alot of attention and may result in multiple fighting teams focusing on the Lifeline and the downed teammate.
And I hope you know that one hit on the drone will cancel the revive, and the drone in exposed from quite a wide angle. When the revive starts, just move to the side and shoot the drone
