why we cant play those heroes in high ranks anymore?, you implemented role lock, this game “counter on the fly” philosophy is dead, every hero should be playable at this point.
also sym and D.va, it is a shame
dva, soldier and genji are arguably the worst heroes in the game atm.
also people who play hanzo i hope you get nerfed to hell o/
Oh me too brother
Nerf those pesky arrow dudes
Yeah, heroes with counter everything in their kits are superior now. (Or counter most things to the point that the other teammates cover their weaknesses for them).
Those aren’t the only heroes they appear to be ignoring. The messy state of Mercy’s abilities (power wise), the fact she struggles to get on fire and appears to struggle a bit as a main healer is … not good.
She’s NOT a main healer, she’s a pocket healer, the sooner you accept the fact, the better.
Her healing was changed because it was too powerful when pocketing DPS heroes.
More like pocket ‘damage booster’.
Delusional
Good argument . Very constructive.
I already provided my argument above and you replied “damage boost bot” basically because you can’t grasp the understanding of “pocket healer”
I have played Mercy since the game first came out.
I also have 6000 hours on Medic in TF2.
Mercy was never a main healer, even when she had 60 hps.
We have a hardcore gamer right here
lol
I can’t speak for every hero in this list, but as for Bastion, Sombra and even Torbjorn, I believe the reason why they’re still in their current state is more than obvious at this point…
Well, if one wanted to continue being pedantic then one could also say that there’s no official definition of a main healer, off-healer or ‘pocket healer’ in Overwatch. They are officially identified as support heroes.
As for your play time on ‘Medic’ in Team Fortress 2, good for you. I have also played Mercy since the game first came out. That doesn’t necessarily mean that either of us are correct or incorrect on what the actual official definition of Mercy really is, only what the community perceives a hero to be (e.g. main, off or even hybrid).
However, I’m going to stop the debate there as I feel that we’re starting to de-rail the thread with this unnecessary debate. I won’t respond to any further replies on the matter.
EDIT: Ah yes, should’ve figured that it was partly about Moira (the hero that is) being more of a victim compared to Mercy. I never said Moira wasn’t a victim though, so again your argument was unnecessary. I guess you’re just against Mercy changes, other than nerfs.
I would take a S76, Bastion and/or Torb meta instead of what we got now.
But you know “We avoid to be reactive to what is happening right now and we don’t enforce metas. Also here’s a tank revamp to address double shield.”
Cowards.
Because any attempt at making heroes like Sombra viable ends up with community backlash. Most people dont play her and dont plan to pick her up. They are just happy if they dont have to deal with her. Game balance doesnt have priority here.
Well your comment on having to include mercy in every thing was already doing that hun x
This will be my final message as I’m turning off notifications for this thread my side, but I wasn’t the one who started this rather silly debate about main healer. I just posted on the thread that I felt they were ignoring Mercy’s messy state in regards to her abilities. You didn’t have to then reply to me arguing that Mercy is a pocket healer and not a main healer in your opinion. Anyway, good day to you!
yes, we don’t have Moira who has been the lowest picked healer at high rank until she became meta a few months ago.
And mercy who always was better than her, and now she’s not meta anymore Mercy is still better, again.
(her pick rate in masters is STILL dropping because it’s the people who got to GM still falling, he masters pick rate dropped like 2% this week and still going down)
You poor victim with all your team utility
