Mercy reviving then spinning infinitely fast is an exploit

Fix this nonsense exploit.
Either prevent the infinite spin, or fix her hitbox so her head doesnt rapidly just change.
She shouldn’t have a 50% dodge chance because someone bound a key to change their sensitivity.

Someone uses a not game based third party mechanic to get himself a advantage.
I am not sure if Blizzard can do something against this because its realy common this days to use scripts and hardware features get yourself a advantage, people just dont think about that this is somekind of cheating.

Mercy is just trying to be aware of her surroundings to make sure it doesn’t get cancelled.

This IS an in game mechanic though. We literally just spin our mouse around when we rez. No macro, no scripts. Literally just turn our mouse.

And we don’t even use a DPI button press, almost all Mercy players have high sensitivity already. I use 15 sens 1200 DPI, EeveeA used to use 36 in game sens, Yuno was top 2 with Mercy using 80 in game sens. You won’t meet a high SR Mercy main with low sens. That’s why we can spin so fast.

It’s not an exploit, it’s literally just playing the game. Sorry.

Her head hitbox doesn’t change when she spins, it stays in place. The rest of her body just looks confusing because her wings spin around. When a Mercy does this, literally just put your crosshair on her head and one shot her. I’ve been killed so much by Widows doing this once they realize how easy it is.

Ah yes, Blizz will soon patch a countermeasure to stop wild spinning, if you try to move your mouse left to right rapidly from now on, a phantom ghost arm of Jeff will come out of your monitor and hold your hand still :rofl:

I mean, with this logic… i suppose walking with your back turned and with your head down as you cross an enemy snipers site line is also an exploit.

Don’t speak to soon. They did it for wild crouching.

I mean she’s standing still? Body shots are effective too

I learned a OWL Winston strat from watching some of the pro’s streams, you jump as winston towards snipers and immediately turn away from them so you fly towards them butt-first which hides your head hitbox, guess thats an ‘exploit’ too :sleeping:

I suicide as pharah in mystery heroes right before enemies kill me so I can stay on her and keep playing, that’s another exploit. Amnesty hour tonight!

Turk told me to tell you that Mercy isnt required to stand still while rezzing

So shoot the body…?

So are we supposed to just stand still and wait for the enemy to shoot us while we’re rezzing or…? I don’t understand the logic of this post. Other heroes are allowed to dodge and weave and crouch spam to get out of a sniper’s line of sight but when Mercy does what she can to do the same it’s an exploit???

Lol spinning mouse around is an exploit now. Now I’ve heard it all.

What are you gonna do about it? Lock mercy POV to look at the ressed person’s body now when ressing too? She already moves like she’s submerged in quicksand. Her head hitbox doesn’t change position either because she moves to slow, no matter how much she spins around.

And there are people here who wonder why this game’s community is considered a joke of both FPS and moba genres…

Maybe read again what the op write thats is an exploit or script and i am a mercy main too thx.

he doesnt talk about just spinning your mouse but reading must be to hard for you

Here’s a list of things that still work against that: inhales

Dynamite, flashbang, body shots, coach gun, boop, DVA boosters, flail, shield bash, hack, pin, Rocket Punch, sleep dart, hook, Tactical Visor, High Noon, Death Blossom, Earth Shatter, Pulse Bomb, grenade launcher, and concussion mines.

That’s 20 forms of counter play off the top of my head. Pick one.

For some reason I read that list like the Pokémon rap which made this post infinitely more hilarious in addition to how true it is.
