Mercy nerf to promote other supports?

Do you suspect Mercy was nerfed just to promote playing other supports?

Absolutely.

I also suspect it was to give console players a bone, as Pharmercy is apparently the biggest threat.

.Yes.

Other supports might see a bit more play but it’s not because of her nerfs but because of their buffs.

I’d say both because this patch ushers in a number of support changes.

I think overall, the changes promote the use of other supports.

However if Mercy wasn’t nerfed, you would be less likely to see people give her up.

Despite what everyone is saying, Mercy is still playable and will still be the go to support. These changes did not change a thing.

Well that is literally why the developers said they nerfed her.
