ok, brig 1.0 was a monster in part because the 500HP shield allowed her to literally just W key into you with literally no way to break the shield before she was able to bash combo you, making it even higher than 300 is a huge risk of that kind of playstyle coming back, and it really really shouldnt, that was the part of brig that people were able to abuse for SR
Or a lower-level version of the aura that is always active, and is ramped to full strength when she hits someone as it is now.

Not pre-rework. You had to screw up a lot. Every character she’d face had more range or damage or both. If the melee-range hero is approaching, it’s pretty easy to find ways to deal with that. Brig had to outplay her biggest threats in order to buy time for her team to regroup or maybe outmaneuver them for the elimination.
Pre-rework, she was great, and was only reworked because they thought she wouldn’t work in 2-2-2, but that assumption has been proven wrong again and again.
Personally this is a better direction. I also think AoE healing should only be at Lucio levels and reserved for off healer types. Should cooldown some of the massive butthurt.
