@heme725Dumb down the revive mechanic? He is literally a character built around protection and revive. There are only 3.5 characters with any effect on revives.
If you are picking someone up, and your third is covering, that is a 1v3 while you revive, unlike lifeline which is a 2v3. Maybe in pro play people don't just suicide charge the moment someone is knocked, but in average play you rarely see a day where you won't have at least 2/3 of the enemy team on your case the moment you revive outside of a sniper fight. Even if its just a 1v2 your teammate is in a losing fight because you chose to protect your teammate as intended.
As for the buff, I don't see how it is OP, you can't just constant revive for free HP, it has a cost, and it has a time sink that is required when you use healing items. Meaning you can't just revive the whole team for free HP, you can only revive one then you have to recharge your pool. Its a singular benefit, objectively worse than lifeline's ability to throw free HP out to the person being revived every 30+ seconds.
For me, Newcastle was already a very good legend and even more so thanks to the current buff.
