Don't rework / revert Mercy

I have yet to see a thread like this saying she is fine.

There’s a few on the front page. Here’s the ones on the front page plus a bunch others posted in the last week or less that I searched for you.

FRONT PAGE

Unpopular Opinion- Mercy is fine

Mercy isn’t supposed to be the ONLY Support hero. Her pickrate and winrate are in a healthy position (she’s middle of the pack). Believe it or not but Mercy’s average winrate is actually higher that Ana’s (Ana might be a bit overtuned in higher ranks, but buffing Mercy to match her is a bad idea, Ana will probably get nerfed eventually). We’re finally at a point where people are indifferent towards Mercy. It’s fine if you have one and it’s fine if you don’t. I know the classic Mercy argument is…

Don't rework / revert Mercy

Ok… let’s come at this from a different direction. Huh… you’ve hidden your forum profile. Regardless… from earlier checking, I remember that you are on console. You find her fine. I’m on PC. I find her not fine. Is it possible our difference of opinion is due to differences in platform? If so, would you be opposed to a PC exclusive buff for Mercy? They have done things like that in the past.

Literally added more variety to Mercy's game play - stop complaining

valk is very impactful, clearly you dont understand the power constant healing+dmg boosting can have during a team fight. but more importantly, the E slows movement, but you can hide behind all of the walls and shields that exist. which i promise you is more then youd think the truth is, mercy players liked they could run into the middle of a team wipe hit Q and be safe. the fact theyre bad positioning gets punished is appernetly “bad for the hero” but its a matter of learning how to properly…

Statistically Mercy is not Okay

Anas winrate is slightly less, but also carries a MUCH bigger Pickrate. The only thing that gets her fire is her Rez, which is only every 30 secs. She just needs that extra boost, and if they want her base as 50hps, fine. But give more power in ult to compensate

The stats prove Mercy and Ana are balanced. Why do Mercy mains keep complaining?

A quick look at the Overbuff stats for this week show Mercy and Ana are quite well balanced with each other. Mercy has a higher win rate than Ana at EVERY SINGLE RANK - even GM. Mercy heals more than Ana at EVERY SINGLE RANK - even GM. Mercy is the 6th most picked hero in competitive, Ana is the 2nd most picked hero in competitive. The stats prove Mercy and Ana are balanced with each other. At this point the complaining sure seems like Mercy mains won’t be satisfied until Mercy is fa…

If you think Mercy isn't fun or impactful anymore

…I want you to watch Animetic’s latest video. If those games, especially her last two, don’t seem fun to you, then Mercy isn’t the hero for you, try someone else. It epitomizes what’s so fun about Mercy just the way she is. Plus, for the last game, she main heals just fine, which is something people like to say Mercy can’t do anymore. Check it out, especially from 12 minutes on for the last two games:

Mercy bottom line

this is not an opinion piece on my feelings on mercy (fyi i like the new one as much as i liked the old one)…its a blunt assessment of the actual situation we’re in the bottom line is this: you want her changed? then you guys need to come up with a better argument…cause here it is in a nutshell: shes not fun - arguable shes not impactful - arguable shes not viable - arguable and perhaps theres a better word cause i dont literally mean arguable…anything is arguable…i could sit here and argu…

Mercy is not a pocket bot or off healer

She’s always had the same playstyle other than her ultimate. Damage boost dps and top people off during poke phase and during their ultimates and stay mobile during teamfights while keeping yourself and others alive. If you spend the entire game pocketing 1 or 2 people and only occasionally healing or dmgboosting the rest of your team then you’re playing her wrong. And in regards to whether or not she’s a main healer yes she is a main healer. She has the same problem that Soldier has where burst…

You get the idea. There’s 1000’s more, but I think just these posts from the last week prove that there are plenty of threads saying Mercy is fine…
