Yeah except for the entire reason you wrote that to begin with is to overstate the fact that hiding before the invulnerability buff was a thing was ill advised… except it wasn’t, and was still the way you played her.
But go ahead and back pedal some more.
And for the love of Jeff, stop this. People hiding before a team fight happens, in order to set up an ultimate combo, so they can use those things in the team fight is not the same as hiding away for the entirety of the team fight without any intention of actually being in it. They’re not even close to the same thing, What is false equivalence?
Or, you can cut that strawman down real quick and not point out any one thing when the last line of that entire paragraph specifically says:
Then, you would be wrong. As it’s been proven to work exactly the same, only requires a team effort to pull off in the heat of the moment during a team fight. Ie: D.va defense matrixing and body blocking for Mercy as she Res’, or Zen using his ult specifically so Mercy can get Res off. These are common tactics we saw countless times during Overwatch league. Showcasing that it is entirely possible.
If you wish to downplay things for the sake an argument i guess.
Again, see my previous point.
Then you’re a lost 'cause who’s not here for a genuine discussion. If you truly believe bringing a pick back from the dead is “a self inflicted debuff” because it also slows you during the 1.75 seconds, there’s nothing left to say.
You could make the Same argument when Ana has nade on cool down because she decided to use it to save herself, she imposed a self inflicted debuff without the possibility of self sustain therefor nade is useless even though it saved that team mate.
Or Mei who just used ice block. She now has it on cool down and can no longer regen her health therefor ice block is useless, even though she used it to block los of that d.va bomb on a team mate.
Do you see how ridiculous that statement actually is yet?
Yet you’re literally bringing a team mate back from the dead in the process. Small price to pay for such a big turning point. But nah, bad 'cause self inflicted debuff amirite?
it’s 1.75. 2.25 is the invulnerability that rezzed target receives. And no, she used to do everything at nearly a moments notice, better than anyone else could. Instant res. Check. Instant Healing. Check. Instant Damage boost. Check. Heal everyone at once. Check. Damage boost everyone at once. Check. Rez multiple people within seconds of each other. Check. Heal the most out of everyone the entire game. Check. Best escape ability on 1.5 seconds? Check. Self regen so doesn’t need to spend off healers resources? Check.
Now you’re shifting the time frame to try and uphold your argument. This is getting sad.
Except then she’s “resurrecting” So, still doing something. While being in the team fight. More than can be sad for Mass Rez.
That’s a you problem then. Mercy has always been that healer that resurrects. They made sure to allow her to keep it even after they took it off her ultimate. She still continues to be that same hero that resurrects.
Your bias about whether you care for it or not doesn’t matter to that fact.
Well this is a strawman if I ever did see one.
Here’s me exemplifying each part of Mercy’s kit:
Now heres you downplaying those exact same parts of her kit to continue arguing when it suits you:
Like, you despise resurrect and like the rest of her kit, but will downplay the rest of her kit because she can’t do those things while she’s resurrecting. Why exactly should she be able to do other things, while she’s already doing something? Again, she had that, when she could res somebody instantly, and then go back to healing or damage boosting somebody else instantly right after. That was broken.
So you would erase half of her identity? Again, why are you playing her then if you don’t like the way she plays anymore?
well here’s you saying specifically in that post that its intended to discuss a rework. (redesign, same thing, semantics are semantics).
here’s you discussing flaws you see in her current design.
I loved how you just straight up lied about other abilities as well. Like death blossom which cant be canceled, or barrage, or coalescence. Not to mention the countless abilities that once are on cooldown, leave the hero completely vulnerable, ie bionade, ice block, immortality, biofield, recall.
Anyway, back to the the thread made specifically to discuss a redesign, that you’re saying isn’t made to discuss a rework:
Oh look, you want it removed with parts of her kit changed, or parts of her kit changed to take away from it’s power.
another quote specifically asking to scrap her ability, reworking her kit, or rather “redesigning” it.
you complaining the drawbacks are fine on any other hero except mercy.
Literally a whole section on how exactly you would “redesign” her
Like brah, you’re lying about lying at this point.
And no, you don’t pick mercy strictly for raw healing power. That would make her a heal bot, you know, like Moira is.
Mercy doing something in the fight, is not doing something in the fight because she’s not doing other things in the fight? Flawless logic my dude.
