yap. always hated that they gave her passive to every support, and them giving it to EVERYBODY is just dumb.
you mean… how shes played right now? shes only played for blue beam
god i hope they rework her. rez feels like utter garbage along with GA, though i wish they just reverted the cooldown of GA. maybe even revert to how it worked in OW1. rez needs to be locked behind her ult, or it SHOULD be her ultimate. whatever happens though, she needs better midfight power so she can discourage from being a pocket bot.
also their reworks aren’t even that bad. the only bad one was roadhog. the reason why the others are seen as a “failure” are due to VERY poor balancing ever since they GOT reworked. like who thought it was a good idea to make dooms only defense utter crap? the main success of a rework is sombra, which thank god because thats my girl i love her.
That was the worst one, in my opinion. It solved absolutely nothing they set out to address. In fact, it just made the problems they wanted to solve even worse.
Albeit, people actually play her now. So… I guess that is a success.
I’ve been maining Mercy forever, and I wouldn’t worry about it. For example, in February of last year, they decided to gut her mobility in exchange for greatly increasing her survivability in other ways. She was still playable but that fly-like-a-bird joy that only Mercy truly has went to expletive. She became clunky. Shortly after, this was reversed, and she got her mobility back.
In the end, the devs want to monetize their game, and that means they at least TRY to make the game fun. It’s hard to please people who complain as much as Overwatch forums, but I don’t think they’ll risk running off all the Mercy mains. She has always been one of the most popular OW gals.
I remember back in the beginning when it first came out everyone hated mercy and how OP she was so they continually made her harder and harder to love, now you cannot get POTG other supports have a chance, the new healin thing will take away the reason for mercy, she is a “true” support/healer more so than others who have benefit in being additionally damage with a side of heals. (although they all have their merits and needs)
