Skill Design
Revenge is a good skill to heal up when swarmed, as when surrounded by monsters, the chances of Revenge being usable becomes quite high. The amount healed is in percentages, so hitting 5 enemies will give you 10% of your total health at rank 1. The damage is also good with 150% of a very damaging yet slow weapon will make this skill useful to cause some havoc and heal up.

Development
Revenge was first introduced in the BlizzCon 2008 demo, and had not changed much in the Blizzcon 2009 version. The old Revenge would hit for 100% weapon damage at rank 1, as opposed to the new 110%. Flux described using it at BlizzCon 2010 thusly:[1]
What happens with Revenge is that you put it on the 1-5 keys, and it stays grayed out/unusuable until you get into a fight. At some point during the battle, if you have enough Fury and you get hit, it activates. Then you can hit the hotkey to use it, and your Barb makes a kind of spinning back swing, like a counter in a fighting game.
The mechanic for this skill was probably inspired from Warrior skills in World of Warcraft, where you can only cast some skills if you've been hit in the last X seconds. With the restraints on the use of the skill, it is not strange it is Fury free.
