No Lifeline Nerf? Then Nerf The Yellow Backpack

If you don't want to nerf one of the strongest legends in the game then nerf one of the things that makes her broken. The Yellow Backpack. Make it a one time use item like the self revive shield. So after one revive it turns purple. You gave her a free hand revive in the game that doesn't need to be channeled. That alone breaks the flow of a fight as it is. Gibraltar needs to channel the revive AND he can be pushed by just running into his dome. Lifeline is reviving while shooting at you so she's holding pressure to keep you back. If you don't want to fix that aspect of her then revert her revive back to season 1. Channeled with a shield in front. That way you don't break the flow of a fight because she has to channel it. Ever since her change to a free handed revive (not on cooldown btw) she's been busted and the fact that you go and buff every other aspect of her kit to "compensate" her revive "nerf" is a joke in of itself.

So either change the yellow backpack

OR

Revert her back to release

Give her the fast revive I don't care as long as she has to channel it.

OR

Change the yellow backpack even further and make it even more dynamic and make the yellow backpack quick revive and remove all fast revive in the game period. Yellow backpack no longer gives bonuses on revives but instead anyone can utilize it to its full potential now.

    @Death_by_Sloth99 1. Lifeline is not broken. Did you see any Lifelines in ALGS? Any Lifelines in high Ranked? Judging by what you’ve said above, you’ve probably died to a skilled Lifeline ressing your kill and decided to come on here by complaining about how “broken” she is. Also judging by the questionable vocabulary you’ve exhibited above, using words like “yellow backpack”, “channel” and “free hand revive”, you haven’t been playing this game for very long. She literally has no revive shield now, and you’re like, “Is that even a nerf?” HAHAHAHAH YES THAT IS LITERALLY A HUGE NERF. How about you use a grenade like a normal person to stop a Lifeline ressing? Lifeline is a casual legend only because Gibraltar is the better revive character. He does it faster and is protected on all sides by his dome. Just because you die to a Legend doesn’t mean it’s broken.
    2. They already nerfed the golden backpack so your post has no reason to exist. It’s more expensive now in Arenas, which was the problem.

    @CasensHyper Lifeline is absolutely Broken... especially in the Arenas... she was the #1 Reason I quit playing Arenas all together because the Auto Revive Mechanic is broken with no cooldown and the Gold Backpack should be completely removed from Arenas or I like his idea where its 1 time use then turns to purple similar to a gold knockdown shield

    @TheApexLegendNub she's broken in arenas and subpar in higher ranks. Making the gold bag much more expensive or limiting it to care package drops will solve her arena dominance I think.
