Brig is back so unfortunately her power level will edge out mercys for the protective support slot… brig also plays clumped up while mercy shines when players spread out. I guess bye mercy it was fun while it lasted.

I never found mercy to be the ‘protective support’ just a pocket support imo
also wait a week, then we will know the full story

Mercy isnt an aggressive support. Shes meant to not need much peeling herself and peel thre ana or zen constantly.
Brig being better at thay

I dont really see how mercy would peel for an ana or zen…is it the healing?

Yea? It’s the consistent healing
I know the forums haven’t figured it out yet but healing counters flankers.
Tracer comes up to your Zen? Start healing him and suddenly Tracer’s mosquito dmg isn’t enough to kill him

Brig is back because she has 25 more base health?..
Mercy has been meta for over a month. I’m getting extremely bored of playing her, and for once in my life I’d be glad if Brig even became meta. People think buffs make a hero meta. No. Brig doesn’t have the same inspire, she has no armour from repair packs, her shield is paper thin, and she stil doesn’t even have 200 base health.
She is niche. Mercy is still incredibly strong. She has damage boost, rez, strong single target healing and incredibly mobile. Mercy doesn’t have to always be meta because it’s what Mercy mains want. When was the last time brawl was meta? How I want a main tank that doesn’t sit AFK behind a shield to be meta…

last I checked tracer isnt diving alone in 2020
dude I don’t know if you realize this but brig is ALWAYS going to best the best support in a game centered around objectives.
It will ALWAYS be better to play a team grouped up instead of spread. Until we have a pericing projectile that punishes grouping, playing split isn’t viable

That’s where you’re wrong pumpkin. Moira and Lucio can be just as strong or even stronger than this version of Brigitte if you’re playing grouped together. It all depends on the meta and which other heroes work well together.

She’s being played in split comps, not brawly comps

I mean, she’s only healing 55 and Zen’s hitbox is one of the best for Tracer’s gun. I wouldn’t exactly call that good for Zen.

So you’ve never had a Tracer trying to solo kill a squishy on any of your games in ladder? Hmm…
Damn dude I’m sorry you’re getting scrimmed on every match XD

Really guys? just because of 25 more health this will make her meta?

Didn’t you know, people aren’t coordinated enough to play zen comps because the peel is too difficult, but teams in silver can perform perfectly coordinated dives

It changes almost every breakpoint in the game even without taking healing into account

Yeah, somehow our Tracer’s are always 1v6ing in the enemy backline spamming I need healing but their team have perfectly coordinated dives every time and that’s why I’m stuck in silver
Honestly bro I’m locking Brig every game. So far 80% winrate and I’m sure it’s gonna go up the higher I climb. I have no idea how anyone can think Brig is balanced lol
But hey according to the forums she’s underpowered
This forums a lost cause

keep that exact same energy if genji is ever buffed again 
Mercy I feel isnt threaten as much as lucio. Lucio mains have more of reason to hate brig than mercy.
I play a lot of mercy and those two don’t really compete with each other but actually are played depending on the meta or what the team needs.
