I suppose so, I see it the other way around. A ‘bigger’ change perhaps, but ultimately (lul) it’s all her same capabilities shuffled around.
The OP proposal is an actual change in her functionality, and how she interacts/balances with other heroes on a fundamental level.
The thing is, I’ve seen ideas like yours get shot down. I’ve had other ideas, that also get shot down. This is just one of many threads of talking about Mercy balance, and I’ve slowly been trying to find an idea that tackles the complaints from people who have a problem with current Mercy, and those that worry about change making her too meta again.
However, it seems neither side want compromise, and that’s a shame. It’s starting to annoy me.

I wouldnt let it bother you, it simply is what it is
some groups want mutually exclusive changes, such as one group wanting mass rez returned and another wanting rez in any/all forms removed from the game
as such, there is no possibility pleasing all parties in this particular matter.
If I had my way, rez would shift to ult (single instant rez), and valk would just go away. Make E something similar to antinade and IF field. Not those affects, but something skill shot-esque that makes a big impact on fights.
Maybe please is the wrong word. It’s more doing something that isn’t hated. Keeping Mercy the same is hated. Changing her too much is hated. Buffing her is hated (Worry of Moth Meta 2.0). If I can find something that maybe not loved by all, but at least not hated, I want to chose that path for Mercy.
I made an attempt at this with my compromise rework some time back.
three key elements
- make Valkyrie a bit more skill intensive
- make rez an option providing a 2nd option to those who dont like rez
- provide a means to boost midfight healing power
