Thats how “enabler” characters work .
They arent good by themselves, and only become good because of others

Much of mercy’s value is hard to distinguish. On every long range death in a control map that early death would be the end of a push. A 4v5 fight that wasted at least 15-20 off the clock for a reset or another minute of pointless fighting before losing to numerical advantage. With rez the death is reversed and 5v5 fight continues. No support can reverse 1shots except mercy.
The other thing too is how many assists did Mercy get compared to your elim? Where healing a target thru potentially a death situation due to Moira being unable to follow? Mercy supports Doomfist WAY better than Moira every can.
At the end the direct comparisons are pointless because not every situation is covered by one support. Moira will heal the choke poi ts better. Mer?y supports the wide open areas on the same map better.

Thing is Mercy is best player as a mobile booster for the whole team-it’s why her mobility has been a key aspect to her kit-to the point where Kaplan even said it was more core to her design than Rez was.
If she’s just gonna pocket a single hero then there’s really no need to have that mobility.
What do you mean by this?
Players need learn and grow as players instead of blaming the game for every hardship they endure, often times caused by their own willful ignorance of the game…
The best example i can give was in ow1 plat lobby. Tracer on my team spent entire match trying to get a single kill on a pharah…
Of course myself and someone else pointed out they either needed to swap to deal with pharah or target someone else… tracer player proceeds to go off calling us all toxic and how they know how to play…
The game has a massive problem with players who think they are better at the game than they actually are, and think they understand better than the actually do…
And when they encounter hardships they struggle against due to this ego… they blame others or they blame the game… as they cannot hold themselves accountable due to said ego
Sadly many of these players belong to the “profitable audience” so blizzard will pander to them
Now,why did y’all flag this

Shes doing “good” at high levels due to her just being able to pocket a Sojoran so that they could kill 80% of the cast and not being able to die cause u press space bar or Ctrl
Did people really flag this? You guys are getting sad now.

Problem is that currently, Mercy is actually quite weak when compared to other supports, but all other supports can do the things she does better, with the exception of res and damage boost (kinda), which are unique to her. Damage boost can technically be replicated by Matrix though. Mercy has almost no offensive potential, not that she needs it, but if she is going to have no dps, then her hps needs to be significantly higher than 50hps, as Moira can do almost everything Mercy does but better, including damage, healing (in some cases, really depends on the person), mobility in any case where there is less than 2 people there, and just supporting the team in general.

If anyone was going to riot and cause problems over a hero change, its most likely to be the mercy players…
Personally i love the changes too… more because its blizzard trolling them essentially saying “learn to aim” to them.
Why does this remind me of the necrotic orb change
It’s hulk he’s just trolling
Even the way he’s talking in this very thread is completely different just to match the stereotypical uwu mercy main energy
Currently? This:

Mercy is now a synergy pick. You can’t mercy for everything that’s trolling. You pick mercy mainly to pocket Pharah or damage amp reaper. if there’s no reaper or pharah than theres no reason to pick mercy. instea dof just afk healing you could be mroe proactive with some otehr supprot champ like moir aor ana and do dmg
Shes doing well higher up because she pockets sojourn.

They’re not good changes though. When did anyone ever have a problem with Mercy’s ability to duel? Her projectiles are already the size of Lancaster Bombers.
The weapon swap speed is nice. But that’s it. That should’ve came with buffs to her healing, Valkyrie or rez. The extra 5 ammo is ridiculous. It’s completely unnecessary

Evidently you didn’t read the rest of my post. Immediately after I said that they were good changes, I said that they were not the ones we needed.
he also buffed tracer AND sojorn AND made Doomfist a 4v1 machine
he is worse than Holinka
