Bring back “Heroes Never Die!”

[SnoopyPoopy-2807]

maybe you can make it a regular voice line that you can buy from the shop?

[Racillian-1752]

I say we splice them together with a bit of audio editing:

“I will watch…HEROES…DIE!”

The mediocrity of this rework shown fully… but its not all bad I would say that the idea of giving Mercy a way to remain involved is good, but removing the Resurrection Ultimate wasn’t a great way to do it…

[AngryCats-1999]

Amen to that. I WANT MASS REZBACK!

[AngryCats-1999]

As if being a healing moth that stands still for 2 seconds while bring a teammate back and having no fun at all is healthy fot her. Huge rez just needed some tweaks, not an entire kit rework

Agreed! Mothcy is no fun. As much as I like being able to fly, that’s not enough on it’s own to be fun.

Congrats, OP. Your thread survived for that long!

[Racillian-1752]

I just got word of the news, this is a step in the right direction, thank you Michael!

As others have said though, while it’s very exciting that the super iconic voiceline is coming back, without her Old Mass res as an ultimate, or incorporated in her kit in some way, the amazing voiceline doesn’t have much impact.

Do you suppose that a multi-man Ressurection is in order? I feel at this point Mercy is at a stage where she is no longer a must pick, so having her be reverted to the point where she had Mass res would be a huge way to return Mercy back to where she was both balanced and fun to play. Of course there are tons of suggestions for you to read in the Mercy Feedback thread that explains how Mass res can be used while still being balanced at all levels. After all, “Heroes Never Die!”

I do too. With some tweaks it wouldn’t have felt “bad” to play against. No invulnerability would be a good start.

Still love Mercy thou

Winged Victory Mercy is confirmed to get a new Valkyrie voiceline. Instead of “Heroes never Die!”
They will record the “Onwards to Victory!” again.
Lead writer Michael Chu said :
“Felt like it needed a little bit more oomph to feel consistent with other ultimate voice lines. It should come back in the future.”
The Original thread where he answered is here

Winged Victory’s voiceline

What happened to the “Onwards to Victory” voiceline on the winged victory Mercy skin? she used to say it before the ultimate voiceline were reverted when you rez and such. But However, once the voicelines were changed back to the original voiceline it didn’t go to her ult or her rez? what’s up with that.

Some tweaks yeah but no invul would not be the way to go. Reason being it was pretty worthless without it - people complained quite a lot about it being a bad ult as it was too easy to stop. The thing is it didn’t need a nerf, it needed a buff. Against, well anyone who killed the Mercy before the team wipe or against people who killed the Mercy as she flew in it was too easy to counter - she was called a Troll pick at higher ranks. And I saw plenty of people even in silver and gold who stopped it easily, let alone plat and above.

What I’d change I dunno tho. Maybe leave the ult as it was. What I’d really like is the ability to fly in a straight line for a fair distance on a very long cooldown separate to the need a team mate to dash to power. Reason being it would be awesome to get back into the fight and be able to use her mass rez. Tho admittedly if you’re killed before the team wipe your team will have rezed naturally before you ever get there. Still would love to have.

I think a flight ability such as that would have been great! The counterplay is only there to make others feel less oppressed by it. Thou it would be about encouraging Tempo Rezzing.

Dude come on, no necromancy!

Who out here raising the dead

[IamAPerson-11980]

Someone explain to me how this is “2 YEARS LATER” when the post was made in March 2018 and it’s not even 2020 yet.

[lethal-2348]

I’m so glad they put back in the old voice line at one point. Such an iconic cool voice line.

[TheWorkshopr-1907]

I don’t wanna write another nice necromancy message…
