Yes she is. All her “techs” (that aren’t even particularly hard) are result of boredom due having nothing to do while holding that one mouse button.
That’s why my idea was 2 - 4 seconds. And to lessen the confusion, i only thought about the tiny healing boost.

Exactly. I already have drmatically lower deaths on her even in stomp games. Its come to the point that Im only using Ana kiri in my games because I legit feel like im burdening my team with her in any situation without a dps to pocket and I hate playing that way so I just dont
Either heals that matter or a powerful ult will fix her

But can You? xD
Yeah, I wanted to add a little more dynamic to the overall gameplay with additional elements, and not just reinforce the healing; which is really bad at the moment
And for the duration of the buffs I thought of something around that lenght
I think Zarya bubble lasts for seconds?
But yeah, between 2 and 4 seconds its a good timer to bring something to the table wihtout feeling OP or broken

Can what?
Why are the mercy mains treating it as it is rocket science to play mercy?
Show me your gameplay.

You can even share one of Samito’s best highlights
I love when he uses Valk to jump over an Ice Wall. Peak Mercy gameplay right there xD

Just give them an easy mercy parkour and watch them do that. See how long it takes them XD
Ah yes
Havana, OW1 Expert Mode
“beware what you wish for”
lol xD
I’ve been warming up my mercy play by doing parkours. Since playing mercy in gold = impossible to climb. So i just try to learn new techs and keep the existing skills sharp.

In gold you can get away with just standing around a corner and holding a click.
No you can’t. You’ll die instantly unless you stay on the move.
And the bullet changes are to blame for that. While in season 8 you could just strafe a little and survive in gold, you now have to keep dashing around or you’re just playing respawn sim.
I started climbing the moment i swapped from mercy, which goes to show how poorly she’s performing right now even in low ranks. (I used to be plat 5- 4 with one tricking her)
ppl can’t even aim in gold.
They can now with their bullet buffs. You play mercy in gold and give me replays of it if it’s so easy.
Nah. the projectile size buff hardly did anything. Ppl are trying it on the non moving training bots with their oversized crtit boxes and think they have GM aim now.
I’m only talking of my experience from playing. You can’t get the right feel for it in the training grounds. And my experience is that i die faster than i did before season 9.
Also never tested the bullet changes on bots. I’ve just noticed that i need to aim higher to land headshots now, but bodyshots are easier to land.
I notice it especially when sniping a widowmaker. I have to aim above her instead of her head to land headshots now.
Show me where it hurts and I’ll tell you the rank xD
Sadly this is what you can expect from high elo gameplay. A very conservative style.
Move in between covers in between Widow shots?
Don’t fly in the open or you may catch a rocket with your teeth?
So yeah, that’s pretty much about it. But hey, it also is what everyone should be doing in any rank
But having Mercy doing whatever and Resing in everyone’s face?
That’s basically because lower ranks can’t hit their shots xD
So don’t blame the character if the players can’t camp an elim for 8 seconds
As much as it is true that ppl can’t aim, you also shouldn’t be held hostage to camp a single spot for 8 seconds. The objective won’t capture itself.
Priorities
Its always about priorities xD

You can stand on the objective if you keep glancing at the corpse. Or you can stand on the corose while shooting the enemies on the objective.
No point in being on the obj if there are enemies on it (unless it’s overtime or you’re defending it)
If you killed someone mid teamfight, no point in camping them. Mercy won’t try rezzing in the midfle of a firefight. (Unless it’s low rank)
Killing someone further away is worth camping, as the mercy is more likely to go for the rez. And even if the rez goes through, you’ve killed the mercy.
It’s easier to kill the second support when mercy is dead and then everyone else resets or ends up in spawn.
