Mercy doesn't feel empowering anymore

Sure, especially if Quick-fix is copied too. Flying with teammates was really fun, but required some skill in explosive jumping.

Is overwatch a combat based game? Yes

As such should it encourage combat? Yes

Should any ability that is counter to that goal be addressed? Yes.

Did mass rez encourage hid n rez tactics? Yes.

Dis it need to be addressed? Yes

Can’t get more logical than that. Ignore it if you want. It only reveals bias.

You really didn’t, though. You mentioned some of the problems it had, and I gave you solutions to those problems. You then decided to just completely ignore that.

I literally said that isn’t the most powerful use, let alone the only powerful use.

If you’ve lost 2-3 people, you haven’t won the fight. If your team gets 1 pick and the enemy gets 2 picks. The enemy is at a 5v4 advantage. If you rez your 2 teammates, you’re now at a 6v5 advantage.

It’s not at all a normal E.

Rez is not impactful with rez on E because the rez and the rest of her kit have been watered down to make up for having an ult on a 30 second cooldown. Moving her ult back to her actual ult solves that.

I literally already described a way.

No, he didn’t.

No, it didn’t. Your “logic” fails.

Sure, go ahead. The end result is that you still haven’t given any sort of logical argument that doesn’t rely on feelings.

Developers literally said it encouraged a play style they didn’t want.
That was the main reason it was removed, not “feelings”.
Could they have done it a different way? sure, but they didn’t.

No, it didn’t. If it did, it would be effective, which it wasn’t.

In other words, you create number advantage, where it didn’t exist before.

It was effective against low IQ players.

Like, if my house has a wall, and people keep running into that wall and dying, is it me being very smart with wall being there, or people are stupid?

Yes, it did.

People used it for hid n rez tactics all the time.

No, it didn’t. I barely ever saw it happen, and when it did, it was a terrible strategy that resulted in them losing.

I did see it work plenty of times, but it was silver-gold tiers. And even then, at times there were players smart enough to save ult, resulting in loss.

Don’t see anything wrong with strategy, that works against stupid.

why did this discussion devolved into 5 years old kids shouting “no u” at eachother?

Yes it did. I saw it all the time and its success was moderate among the average player.

Lol. Fair enough. Just
Going to ignore ginger as they clearly have no interest in fact.

That post has a very strong recurring theme of “hide and rez” referring exclusively to not dying to enemy ults. In those cases, it would literally not matter whether or not Mercy was healing her team or not. The enemy is dumping their ults, your team is going to die. You’re not “letting your team die” in those cases, your team is already dead. You’re just avoiding being included in the ones who die so you can rez. That is not the same as intentionally allowing your team to die when you could otherwise save them. Every support should be avoiding enemy ults and knowing when to back off from a fight they can’t save.
