Lifelines new ult
I thought the ULT was going to get a buff to balance the nerf on the passive but two games in a row, I popped it early from using ult accelerants and literally got one blue armor, one blue backpack a...

@BalladalidilaI only got around 1k games into lifeline which is very small amount for me so as a none lifeline main i tend to lean on my friends thoughts on it. He has been a lifeline main from day 1 he loved the re-work she was quite strong with the res shield as it seems most players had zero desires to learn to counter it instead complained they cant do nothing about it.
The ult package he likes to. The care package never guaranteed an upgrade before even early game you had the chance for thermal optics as you did an armor or helmet. It was randomized so this ensures always some type of upgrade which is better than a sniper thermal no one is going to use. So with him there has been no complaints with the kit as of yet. He has over 100k kills and over 5500 wins on his lifeline. this isnt to say people will think the same when it comes to changes i just mainly look at it from someone who put their life in lifeline to fully see and understand the changes. He has been wanting a re-work since season 4 for the care package to change.
I also wanted the LF change and I actually like the change to the revival shield since most players in Diamond+ elo wont be bothered by it in close range fights nor will they often get randomly knocked at long range/mid range fights where the old res shield was OP. I never thought the old res shield was overall OP and the 0% pick rate in pro play is a proof of this. The new revive allows for sneakier reses that totally can surprise enemies who suddenly gets attacked by a third teammate who they though was already downed.
But I am just saying what I am experiencing now. Even if it might, in theory, be better to get a guaranteed one-tier upgrade of an item you need, I find it more often than not, NOT to be so in practice, based on what your "usual" current inventory at any given time of the game. Just 4 minutes ago, in my last game, I got a phoenix kit, a purple stock (which was the guaranteed upgrade from my blue stock) and some shield cells, this in a package I dropped when it was 2 squads left and I had full purple armor + yellow knock shield.
