A complete and total rework to Mercy with rez completely taken out of the game. ![:thinking:](https://d74zh8edaijub.cloudfront.net/en/overwatch/images/emoji/twitter/thinking.png?v=5" ":thinking:")

I am not a Mercy main; however, when a character’s state is THIS poor, I am always going to support the mulligan. Throw Reaper and Bastion into there, some people question McCree, but who cares about them, throw him in there too!

How about Blizzard gives us the ability to manipulate the character on PTR, IE altering stun durations, cooldowns, ranges etc.

What’s the rework consisting of?
If it’s Valk with numbers changes I’d rather stand still for 1.75 seconds and slowly raise my arm into the air.
If it’s an actual rework that Blizzard has somehow managed to innovate on simply swapping E and Ult, I’d say yes!

No, I love Rez so much! It’s my favorite ability in the game!

Realistically, I think this is the best option. It seems to be too difficult to balance rez while making Mercy fun to play both with and against.
Ideally, I’d like rez to be part of (or entirely) her ult.

Most suggestions that involve removing rez have been met with decent backlash. Maybe things have changed recently but I’d expect it to be the same still.
No.
Changing rez would be changing Mercy.
You might as well just delete her if you are going to get rid of rez.

Hammond, Doomfist, Tracer, Genji, Rein… so many characters running back so fast, so little time.
Besides, the ability just doesn’t fit with her playstyle, at all.

This thread is going a little to well for my liking
Mercy main here, ya I would like this. The only 2 options for me are revert or rework with no rez. It will never ever work as a standard ability no matter how “successful” the dev team wants to call their balance changes. Face the facts guys, Mercy was a screw up, stop denying it.

Does “complete” rework mean changing her base gameplay much or at all? Because other than upping her healing back to 60hp/s, I think her base gameplay is completely fine, with how GA works and being able to swoosh between teammates.
Getting rid of Rez and Valk is something I’m all for though. Only good thing that came out of her rework was the bunny-hop.
Mercy is a doctor, not a necromancer and shouldn’t be defined by being able to bring back the dead. Besides, didn’t the devs say that Mercy’s rez is more of a “gameplay mechanic”, meaning that she actually didn’t bring someone back from the dead in lore. She saved Genji who was on the brink of death. So that’s what she should be about, saving people before they die.

To me it would make Mercy feel empty. The reason I gravitated towards Mercy were she looks amazing, she’s a straight healer and Resurrect <3 If she ever lost Rez idk who id play after that.

1/3 of her identify I’m not willing to lose just because the devs don’t see what most of us can; a balanceable Mercy with Resurrect.
That being said, at this point, I’m willing to try new things.

Moira? Just the evil Mercy essentially.
Besides, if she had a mobile kit, I’d be happy to see that. Give her some free flight, take away that godforsaken ability that’s caused many a vloggers to go mad etc
I can only take so much of playing Moira before I get really annoyed.
She pretty clearly is in need some some work. Right now there’s almost nothing to differentiate a good Mercy from a great one, just somewhat better decision making and positioning. Certainly not enough to have a meaningful impact on the game.

How? xD Moira’s great fun; no risk, high reward, team praises you for 30k heals.
I have two friends who used to main Mercy. One’s mid plat, the other’s mid diamond. The mid diamond doesn’t touch Mercy anymore and adores Moira, whilst the plat hates playing both heroes and would rather play the likes of Lucio.

If said rework made it possible to actually heal your teammates again then sure.
