I mean… idk I guess I’d want Mercy’s win rate to be higher in bottom tiers than Ana. But then again have you seen silver Mercy’s? Some of them have great movement somehow. And others literally stick to damage boost for two full seconds of looking at you with critical health before they realize “oops I should switch to healing”. From a basic level of value scenario it probably is flat out easier to just pump shots into your tanks as Ana and get higher value than it is to do anything with Mercy. So I’m not too surprised by the WR thing. I think Mercy’s overnerfed tho so I’d be happy for 55HPS. No more reworks for a while. Give her a few months of non must pick status before you gamble it going back to that.
Thing is even with 55hps so many will still be unhappy, and the gap might not even change. I think 1 more rework might help if done correctly.
Now that is just an example. So many ideas have been told, and I hope Blizzard will fix it some way other than a simple 5hps buff.
I personally want rez as a ult. Not mass rez mind you, but I want rez on her ult

Ngl. Stuff like this annoys me.
You have a point. And I am of the position that Mercy could use a buff etc. At the same time, with how you said what you did it annoys tf out of me as its referring to a hero that was straight up must pick for so many seasons.
Amazing what just -10hps can do, right? Before -10hps, “shell always be must pick with rez on e.” After -10hps, “ree so bad.”
She is a bad pick. Like many heroes at many times. Just how it is.
Now we know what it takes for her post rework to be a bad pick. That’s progress, as much as you might hate it.

Pick rates in Bronze certainly do not tell a Hero’s skill ceiling.
Bloodeh hell, Ana requires less skill to bring more value? Damn son, maybe its not because of Mercy needing more skill but because her abilities are currently weak?
Use the brain that you hopefully were born with, gee.
No, it gives a clue about their skill floor. Looking at Ana’s stats tells you she has a lower skill floor than Mercy and isn’t that much higher than Moira.
Either she’s too easy to play or too easy to be efficient with. Both are a major issue for a supposedly high skill character.

Have you played Ana for more than 2 minutes?
Do you still take overbuff as a viable source after private Profiles?
If its no and yes, then please, do not tell me Ana is easy to play, especially not with Brigitte in the roster. It’s time to stop.
I have over 40 hours on her.
Overbuff is still reliable, it still has a big sample size.
It’s simple. Good ana mains don’t have anything to hide so they made their profile public proudly. Mercy mains on the other hand tends to hide it cuz they’re ashamed of their main. Don’t try to deny it, it’s a fact that there are discrimination on what choice of hero you like to play. Hence I believe overbuff has inherent bias and you can’t really rely on it. If you want to quote stats why don’t you quote the recent owwc group stages. Ana and mercy has about the same amount of pick rate.
This nonsense again. Go check Mercy’s pickrate graph when private profiles were introduced. Do you see a big drop? Do you see a big increase in Ana’s pickrate at the same time? Spoiler - you don’t. At all.
Overbuff is no longer a reliable source, due to private profiles
Eh it is but yeah rough estimates are y’know rough
