Not at all, his low cost and CD means he will be worth running as a meat shield while having 2 ranged AoE one of which scales off disease amp. Having lumbering is far worst than short lived.
Having lumbering is a lot better than short lived if you want a champ to be a meat shield. The cost you suggest is higher than his current one -- why on earth you would run this champ over risen moga I cannot say, something that has near identical durability, no time limit, and better damage output. I just don't see why one would bother using this rebuild in any capacity.
All in all he still fits the same role and is now more viable outside of zombies with short lived over lumbering
I play him in almost every deck I run and I don't even play zombies. I'd drop him like a hot brick after this kind of rebuild, though. Lumbering is precisely what makes him good: it cuts enough off his cost to make him 1:1 on hp:nora -- and your opponent has to deal with that hp, which they wouldn't if he had short lived -- and his ranged attack makes him valuable before engaging in melee. The rebuild would ruin several of the things I find good about this champion and replace them with nothing of value.
