The damage projectiles need to happen. Bring on the damage projectiles from the skill tree showcase that were bigger like Sym’s projectile. Make them around the same damage as Sym’s projectile. Damage boost is unhealthy for the game, Mercy is the most boosted hero in gaming with damage boost/ rez
Remove rez as well, broken ability being on cooldown. Give Mercy a molly similar to phoenix from Valorant that does both damage/ healing when inside the aura when it lands, make it angelic like the aura tank Paladins put down in World of Warcraft.
Mercy would be so fun with damage projectiles and the molly doing damage, so much potential to outplay your oppenent. Would make Mercy’s skill ceiling WAY higher. An actual skilled, respectable hero.

AKJ you should put the energy you put into trashing on Mercy into improving your aim.

As usual, AKJ here proclaiming his superiority. If you put this much effort into Cass, you’d be T500, maybe.

Yes, because clicking and instantly hitting someone is the peak expression of skill, and not the people doing mental geometry to make their shots land.

Aim is the most skilled part of an fps. Look at aim gods like Tenz.
He gets more viewers than the whole Overwatch category on Twitch

It’s possible. I haven’t taken the time to develop my aim and I play on a laptop with 60 fps. I’m not a dps player. But I know someone who is.

Not in OW. OW requires game knowledge as well, and is weighed far more heavily in game knowledge’s favor.
Heck, even in Valorant you’re probably not going to get above Diamond unless you learn how the game plays with just aim, and it’s like… One of the most aim dominated games out there.

Overwatch has broken abilities, ultimate’s that take no skill. The whole support roster is power crept besides Illari from broken abilities/ ultimate’s. Moira was fine until they nerfed every supports burst damage with the hp changes, then went and buffed Moira’s damage.

People who can land shot with mental gymnastic are already playing Echo and Hanzo.
The rest is just pure spamming.

For the most part, only people who hate Mercy like this idea. There’s no chance that Blizzard throws away their skins cash cow with an enormous devoted player base in order to cater to the people who dislike her.

Yes… Overwatch is balanced around abilities in a similar way to Mobas. That’s where the game knowledge part comes in. Understanding how they interact, how to win against them, how to position around them, etc. etc. etc.

So I already can do mental geometry I guess. As I am pretty decent at Hanzo. Tbh I just go by instinct.

Hanzo always takes tremendous skills to be consistent.
Tell that to the forum warriors who all say Hanzo is all spam, no skill, all luck, and random.
Apparently even before S9 he was “firing logs”.
