Does mirage go invisible if reviving himself?

I was once playing with a mirage teammate and we were in a fight with another squad and i got downed, and when mirage killed them he came and i noticed that when he was reviving me he got invisible, but i never saw what would happen if a mirage had a golden knockdown shield and revived himself, does he go invisible like if reviving someone else or not?

    I don't think he goes invisible when selfing, but it would definetly fix the shield's uselessness,

    since basicaly unless you're far away behind cover or the enemy is busy fighting someone else,

    you never use that thing, so any unique interaction would definetly be cool,

    or at least unique revive animation for each Legend..

    Nah, you become invisible for a short period when knocked, but not when self reviving.

    Which still makes mirage the best candidate for a self revive,  however you're probably better off using that brief window of invisibility to try and crawl away as opposed to instantly popping a self res.

    @MandatoryIDtagworst candidate for self revive

    Because you are invis while down when you start self reviving,

    and than you appear suddenly while standing up cecause you spend 90% of the animation in almost fully stood up position,

    because the self revive animation is just, it's bad, level 4 knockdown shield should be purple colored not gold,

    it doesn't deserve to be gold rarity, it's trash.

    @damsonwhufndthis  I wasn't talking about the validity if the knockdown shield itself, just who is best suited to use it. 

    Which is infact mirage no matter which way you look it lol. 😛

    Like you said though the thing is garbage and is very rarely used successfully let alone the cause of a clutch.

    I'd rather the thing just gave you full health and shield when you're picked up than a 4 hour self revive. >.>
