Indirect vs Direct balance changes - "Waaaaa mercy waaaa"

The difference between Mercy and Zeny is not a great comparison, one character is good at higher ranks due to its skill requirement and the other just good regardless of what rank you look at.

If anything has been proven from 2 years worth of forum posts itā€™s that there is no such thing as a change to any character that people will universally likeā€¦

Everyone idea of balance is differentā€¦

Just play the gameā€¦enjoy it for what it is and stop focusing on which number is bigger than the others all the timeā€¦

Aim is the one of the most important skills that separate good players from bad, positioning? Easy.

Aim however, takes sooo long to perfect.

Hey guys, not that this is important, but Blizzard is merging Mercy threads into a Megathread a poster made since the actual megathread is locked. Can we just take time to respect this indie company.

They have a sincere right to complain after this last nerf.

Itā€™s a nerf too far.

Wrong. Game sense and positioning is far more important than mechanical skill. Thatā€™s what separates players who climb past the diamond wallā€¦

Itā€™s easier to learn than aim however, you can be the greatest widow at positioning, but if you canā€™t click heads consistently then you wont make it beyond gold.

It has always been harder to train the mind than the body. Muscle memory is one of the easiest skills to attain, however actively training your responses to certain stimuli takes longer if there is not enough motivation or will to do so.

Considering for a good chunk of the game she was the only main healer that wasnā€™t trash, this isnā€™t surprising.

Popcorn anyone

They arenā€™t salty, since we can get the salt from this place.

And you are mistaken if you think characters that need to aim do not require any of the other skills(like positioning, awareness). In fact you need aim on top of everything else.
On topic:
I think mercy needs more nerfs before ana is viable, but we will see if that is the case in a few weeks.

Iā€™ve seen a 6-stack of GM/T500ers from the Widowā€™s perspective where it was mostly bodyshot + callout to his teammates who he shot to finish them off.
