I never said it was from the Megathread, it is just there now.
The Mercy mains got outvoted on their own post. We don’t want Mercy buffs.
She’s just a healbot now.

That’s not what we balance around. Sorry.
Which is fine, but she is too strong to straight buff. If you want to buff her ult you got to give somewhere else

What do I need to say ?
She’s viable, powerful, not OP.
So she’s fine.

Had anyone fun during that time? As far as i know, no. Now that the “unfun” aspect is limited to the Mercy player it’s okay? No, again. We are more than okay with other heroes getting changes first and stuff like that. Many even said that countless times.
But we get no real answer to our concerns, so we keep pressuring the topic in hope to get a real answer.
I say it again:
We are more than okay if other heroes get changes first. But it feels very bad to be ignored for more than 7 months.

Mercy is on the precipice of being too strong, on console she’s basically already there. We will never get any changes to Valkyrie as long as this is the case, we’re actually more likely to get a nerf for her. She’s too stable, too versatile, and has too much utility to not be picked. Something is going to have to give.

Well just remove rez at this point and keep her rez in ult and give her another ability like a mini valk where she can guardian angle faster and self heal a little more to keep herself alive

Im not saying she shouldn’t get reworked but other heroes are in more need of improvement. Also as I stated before unless Bliz thinks something needs to be done nothing will be done with her kit. And considering they just spoke about her last week I doubt anything has changed since

132 likes… ok lets look at it this way…
The GM/Top 500 make up the 1% of the total community… 132 is like 0.25% so are you saying 0.25% or less of the total community want mercy to remain unchange.
Also the statement is arguing more about Ana being in her current pitiful state. This time last year, Ana still outdid Mercy in terms of Pick Rates.
If they did everything based on likes, then this game would go downhill.
I mean if we dive into the issue more and more… it more or less to do with the fixation on forming a Meta and the current trend that people are play.
Like pick rates are largely affected by the facts that DPS players lock into Genji and into choices that aren’t ideal for the situation but it is their one trick main… Ana is largely fine but can be tuned to work better for the current Meta…
Sombra was buffed and then they decided to nerf her again, but the aim was to make her more favourable…
Symmetra is statistically weird which is why she needs rework
Bastion received a buff and then some nerf to balance him out, but he is rather situational.
Reaper is technically fine… he specialise in brawls and Tank take downs but people keep choosing Hanzo, Genji, Junkrat… choices that aren’t helpful for the situation
Mei ult was too powerful because it kept trapping people so they nerfed its freeze and then she lost viability and as a result they added the freeze to her gun and made it more powerful… it still doesn’t change the fact it takes two people to kill her.
Low Pick Rate Heroes won’t budge unless the meta changes… this is a huge issue in the west when placed like South Korea are in a hyper Meta and can adapt to anything… I mean they stomped the 2017 World Cup and even went so far as to show the difference by playing a Mystery hero meta where one of them even switch to Torbjorn.
It was humiliating but it shows how confined to a meta we are… as long as you are good you can flex to anything and make a situational difference.

You forgot no skill requirement, contradicting gameplay, an Ult which has no utility which is better than her base kit, very bad polish, no hero moment and no mind game at all.
Doesn’t looks fine to me.

God forbid we have a viable direct healer

Any compromise to Mercy is reasonable, as long as the buffs are compensated by equivalent nerfs in other areas.
I can’t post links, but the only logical well-rounded post about anything mercy related was Eeveeas post.

Yes she is but this is about her ultimate being bad and the fact that it should just be reverted it literally dose nothing but make her fly it just a bad version of Zen/Lucio ult

Eeveea’s post was tragically flawed by him wanting 2x heals and 2x damage boost.
Her ult is not bad. It is an engaging ult versus a passive ult.

You’d be surprised to find out how useless it actually is. It saves NOBODY if the enemy knows how to focus their fire on a single hero.

I believe the post was made prior to Brig in comp? I’m not sure. Now experiencing Brig in comp, 2x heals makes no sense now.

The problem is, buffs and nerfs wont solve the problem players have with her. Her Ult and E would need an entire rework to fix that.
The suggestion from him was debunked long before it was even posted. It has no solution for the “Mercy problem”.
