Iām gonna say this one last time. Offensive ultimates canāt wipe a team by just pressing q. There has to be a set up or a combo. All offensive ultimates have counter and most of them require more than simply pressing a button.
In case of dva(since you thought it was a good comparison) you need to throw to throw the meka at a right angle with the right timing. Even if done correctly most of the times it will still be a zoning ultimate. In order to get kills with dva bomb you need to either combo it with grav/flux/emp/snowball or disable shield tanks and make sure they wonāt escape/ have them booped from cover.
Mercyes ult had no requirement for set up nor did it require any additional efforts apart from simply pressing q. On top of that you could reliably have it in pretty much every fight.
I will no longer be addressing questions like these ones
Thereās more, but i canāt be bothered to find them all. Stop parroting this stupid argument, please.
Fair enough but it seems like if mass res still was in the game there would be no point in killing anything befor mercy. Right now a hero like widow dosenāt have to target the healers even tho it dose help the team emensly.
I was replying to OP, saying āmercy is not fun.ā
In my opinion mercy is really fun to play and wanted to correct that plenty of mercy players also enjoy her.
Why play something you donāt enjoy?
Mercy has a much greater delay between switching to/from her staff and pistol, Ana and Moira donāt have this massive delay meaning they can almost fight and heal at the same time. āAlmostā being the keyword, in comparison to Mercy who has a much larger delay between being able to fight or heal. Thatās not to mention thereās biotic nade and the orb as other options.
As for the rest of your reply, well, to be fair after you appeared to ignore the keyword āalmostā in my original reply Iām not certain if itās really worth my time quoting other bits in the latest reply .
I sort of agree and disagree. Yes, Mercyās problems started from when she had invulnerability during casting, but to say the blame is squarely on them is wrong. Did they explicitly ask for invulnerability/god mode during casting or did the balancing team think that was the right course of action? I think itās more on the balancing team than anyone, especially resorting to a massive rework when there was easily more room for tweaking the ultimate ability.
The fact they were disheartening though, that means she was changed based on feelings of those playing against her, fair enough. What about the feelings of those playing as her? Theyāve been ignored. Quite a few megathreads with no direct official engagement with any of the feedback, including the warnings when the rework was initially on PTR that her new state would be overpowered.
While itās pretty fail blog for a team to fail to get a team wipe from a 5 man grav/shatter- itās still not an instant 5 man kill above/below/through floors and it requires follow up whereas rez is one button press; instant 5 full health bars. Difference.
You do realize, that itās 5 man rez, only if a) all players died at nearly same time and b) they all are within range. First is really rare to find, unless team gets absolutely hammered with all ults at once.

good one, made my day. Donāt name your source btw, we know itās not true.
