I'd change it to "When blood or pool counters are burned, put them on this card instead. When blood or pool counters would be gained from the blood bank, take them from this card instead."

It's another option, but would you keep the "event burns when..." clause?

I don't think it's needed, since the option to gain blood / pool remains on the table. And once a player is ousted, there should be enough counters on the card to be meaningless.
Or maybe it should just burn when a player is ousted, to avoid confusion on counter-tracking. Probably better.

Nothing back? Could you detail?

I prefer cards that bring something new to the game (new concepts, archetypes, some twist on existing decks). This card does exacly the opposite. It makes metagame less differsified which is not good IMO.

I'm not sure it make the meta less diversified. It help some deck existing, while being far from preventing the one that bloat to live.

The card text as given doesn't include the Gehenna keyword.
