Can put 3 mercy pockets out at double the range, has a barrier, stun, long range heavy boop, armour, aoe heal and damage. Nah bro I don’t think that’s good, why would anyone want to give their dive DPS a mercy pocket while being safe, just play ana and bio nade them, it works in silver every time I play Vs hog ball

We have to wait and see, hopefully mercy doesn’t lose her glory though.
I don’t think silver players can perform PERFECTLY coordinated dives… lol. A perfectly coordinated dive isn’t waiting for your Winston to jump onto some one and then following him.
I still see tracers trying to solo dive zens in GM, I really don’t imagine it’s reliably happening in lower ranks

Brig replaces mercy in the main support niche.
It changes breakpoints that should have never existed. The hp nerf was unjustified.

Not really relevant is it, this is about if 25hp is impactful

- ur not gm
- people don’t even join voice chat in GM. If you expect a coordinated dive at anything below 4.2k you’re highly mistaken.

Okay but where?
I know that Ball/sig seems like a split comp but if you actually watch it then you’d see that like 80% of the time they’re relatively close together.
Also, they’re playing zen. Zen is pretty much more valuable than any other hero in a team. Ofc they’re going to pair him with brig, it makes sense to put a warden infront of him.

and the other 4 stay in brig range. Ball looks for a good slam and then they brawl.
They’re split until they fight, and once they do fight everyone is affected by inspire.
Part of the reason that they’re even using brig is because of ball. She has the ability to stun him before he slams, and whipshot basically removes any momentum he had.
Yes ???
Pls stop talking about stuff you don’t understand, Mercy’s peel for Zen is top tier…second only to Brig.
How do you think Mercy Zen as a comp is so strong? Mercy peels for/pockets Zen and her backline DPS, Zen heals the frontline

Brig gets 25 hp possibly the smallest buff you can give a hero
You and the forums: “Goats is back and no support is playable, Brig is at 1.0 power again!!”

judging me off my level 200 account
beforehand they were playing brig zen winston dva, ball sig is more recent
yeah 240 dps per second without any crit is mosquito damage.
the truth that tracer is a glass cannon that blinks around isn’t something you’re familiar with?

Except, again, 55 HPS is not a lot on a round hitbox that fits perfectly into the spread angle of Tracer. I might not understand, but you’re not doing a great job on explaining how what amounts to a 20-25% decrease of Tracer’s damage is enough to remove her entirely. I get that Brig is supposed to be good at it, but that’s because she can also help physically drive off Tracer (even though that’s a fight Tracer should never lose), but healing alone doesn’t seem like it’s enough to drive off anyone, considering how low healing is in OW
If I recall correctly, the only times a Mercy/Zen comp was meta was immediately after Mercy 2.0 when she was OP and could revive everyone anywhere, followed by Double Sniper where Zen wasn’t getting attacked by anyone because no one was diving. Prior to Mercy 2.0, it was Lucio that was paired with Zen for his ability to peel and support Zen.
Yes? She has a 60% winrate now and her pickrate has reached Lucio’s and is continuing to rise. She now has 225 HP and a 37% stronger self heal than when she had 250 HP.
Wow!! A whole month! Brig was meta for the last 2 years…Mercy was bad for 2 years…but yeah Brig def needs to be meta again after only being out of it for a month!
She has a stronger self heal, almost the same HP as before, her shield and armor packs are the exact same as when she had a 16% pickrate and was the most picked support in GM for a month before her HP nerf…
You don’t pay attention to why/when a hero is strong do you?
Listing all of her abilities isn’t an argument for her being strong. She had all of those abilities when she was the least picked support in GM and OWL for 2 years.

No one is saying GOATs is back stop creating a false strawman, people are saying Bunker may come back because they buffed all the bunker supports and Mcree

Brig is now very close in power level to where she was before the nerf…back when she was a must pick. So yeah, 25 HP isn’t “the smallest buff you can give a hero” when the HP nerf is the only thing that kept her in check in the first place.
