[Feedback Thread Continued Part III] Mercy Updates - Jan 30, 2018

Why are we buffing one of the best support in the game outside of god teir Brigette who is getting nerfed?

You can fly while casting, allowing you to be more mobile trying to get the Resurrect off.

That’s good enough for me.

Ya you and another small group of people do. But the majority wants a changes

Nope. There was a Mercy thread that said they were the majority but the reply that said that you weren’t got more likes. Sorry.

Well because mercy Valkiry is so bad its easy countered. As for Bridgette she can do it before a fight and boom her team has an advantage of 150 armor.

What if they change ult heal/boost to where it has normal healing/boost power but you get to heal or boost two people at a time?

Then you can help more than one person, at range.

So you mean nerf the healing/boosting? Lmfao

Mercy if fine. The devs said she is balanced and as long as they think that way she will stay the same.

Boycotting Mercy is almost impossible, players were throwing with her for a short time because they hated the rework so much… Only made other players very angry and that not in a way which wouldn’t support changes.

BINGO!

my card is complete now

Get rid of rez and give her a instant cast Zilean ult.

The problem is that jeff is throwing out an excuse after another.

Her current pick rates was the same as it was last year… which means there was nothing wrong with her to begin with, he was a popular hero, yet one the must frustrating things about her resurrect was the invulnerable element, she could no longer die on casting.

After rework she rose up to a total of 14.5 to 14.8% pick rate becoming dominant in first place.

The rework into her current version dropped her to 7%, 5% were the other supports flexing onto her, the 2% being Mercy players.

Now the only reason. She hitting 9% again is because we can’t gain fights without her base kit healing. Hence the stats are inflated.

Mercy base abilities are way too powerful and reliable… even Moira cannot supply the same amount of consistent and reliable healing.

The problem is that this is not about balance.

I didn’t put the link in the first post but I found it. It’s in the Megathread atm.

That doesn’t answer why your making on of the best support in the game better.

She is already 2 highest winrate/pick rate next to Bridget. What are you nerfing to justify the improvement you want

What is it fun factor? Whats the problem with Mercy

Every damn time.
“Pineapple pizza is fine. It’s a balanced diet. 10% of people eat it. If you don’t like pizza just because there’s pineapple on it then I guess you just hate pizza, it’s 90% the same thing. There are 26 other Italian dishes you can eat.”

Did you stop reading after you read normal?
Try being constructive, it goes a long ways. It was just an idea on how to improve Valkyrie.

I said, she gets to heal/boost more than one person, at the same time. That way she’s not forced to focus heal/boost 1 teammate, she can get 2 at the same time, and get more done. The normal healing/boost would be a proper trade off. Her boost and heals are already good, so if you can spread it between two, you’re even more dangerous. You powered up two of your strongest allies, and healed up more than one person.

Mercy worst then she was before what’s the point of changing her if she’s just going to be worst then before in that case just go back to the (5 man rez)
Also she had unneeded nefts to her kit when the multiple rezs was the problem not mobility

Yes but Ana was a victim of Meta change, if she was so not meta, Ryujaehung would have quit…

The problem is that Ana was meta because she had tanks she can spam heals into and teams that fought closer to her as oppose to diving into enemy lines.

You want her relevant in dive… then speak to the Pro it was the 2016 world cup that lead to her downfall, every pro present there gave her a death sentence stating she was too strong for the current 2 2 2 death ball meta

Even with the nerf she was arguably still okay, but when we copied the 2016 world cup meta and adapted dive she couldn’t keep up.

You want her viable for dive right… switch out her rifle for a bastion machine gun, then she will be viable.

There no point to Ana if Genji dodges 80% of your shots. Especially if he right next to you going I need healing whilst frantically spamming space bar
