OP I am a top 5 Mercy hater. If that thing was actively ruining the game you’d hear about it from us.
Thankfully she’s benched because her role (and the game ovr) has been powercrept to the moon, her mains for a large part are very reluctant to move away from this archaic mould & the devs don’t have the IQ or cojones to make the right decisions.
The avg playerbase now should have opportunities to at least shoot her in the air. That is enough.
there is always somebody like you my friend…the main purpose of this reply was to tell the other that they suck…why do some of us do that? Complains do not come from happiness dear friend…maybe have some compassion with grievances instead of discarding them as rubbish? Crazy idea, I know
Her wings are included in her hitbox.
While she flies, she has a hitbox the size of a tank.
Mercy can only cut los to her target for 1 second. Her beam breaks after 1.3 seconds of los break.
Through the dps passive, she heals 51 hps.
Which is the amount she healed at ow1 realease. 50hps
Before season 9, her hps was 55 and no one complained.
She is an entry level hero intended for players who are not familiar with first person shooters, which is ok thing to have. However, it brings imbalance to the game where “effort made - value gained” tips the scale towards Mercy vs any other support.
The damage boost creates problems with heroes like Sojourn, Pharah, Widow or Ashe to the point where they get nerfs, while what Mercy has to do is to just hold a different mouse button, so it should at least be on a cooldown. The resurrect should be her Ultimate or be cancelable by any damage like Sombra’s hack to level it with other support heroes abilities, while doing it from behind a wall shouldn’t be a thing at all.
She got her “support wheels” for easier movement in OW2, all she has to do now is aimlessly hold that one button and occasionally glide from one corner to another, which should be enough for not very skilled players to get a feeling of achieving something. Therefore, to make it fair, parts of her kit that make game unfun for others should be changed.
p.s. Mercy mains can feel free to blindly deny what I wrote or to come up with creative ways to insult me.
p.s. p.s. Hitscan DPS players from below Masters that say she is free are correct, the issue tho, they never shoot her, while population of Masters and above is around 2-5% of the player base, therefore nerfs are required.
I mean, I checked yesterday like within an hour of KaPowaFie posting his claimed ranks and unless the dude is playing on either the XBox or Switch exclusive leaderboards I’d bet they’re lying at best.
Playstation only leaderboard is either bunk or completely unpopulated, so strike it off possibility.
I couldn’t find an account that held their proclaimed DPS and Tank ranking on America, EU, or Asia server’s general console leaderboards. I figured one account that held both role ranks would be sufficient proof of claim, but all 6 possible slots were filled by unique accounts. More evidence is that none of the general console T500 Support boards are run by Mercy at all. Asia’s run by Ana and Brig, I saw more Zen there then I expected tbh with how Asia tends to skew towards Dive, EU has a Brig infestation ( there are like 8 Brig OTP accounts in the top 15) with Illari and Baps being very common, and America has a lot of Brig, Baps, and Ana. Mercy doesn’t even show up much when we’re dipping into Diamond on Asia, the other two servers cut off in Masters.
I even checked previous seasons just to see if Mercy was crazy oppressive on there recently, but I didn’t see much of anything aside from the Rank 1 America player in s12 having most of their playtime on Mercy, but most of that season’s leaderboard was Juno.
I could see it being a Switch issue, but that has more to do with the Switch barely clearing OW’s demands and being hyper casual, not so much with Mercy being some omnipotent god tier support.
Every match as Mercy I’m running for my life and kite tanking half the enemy team.
Most enemy ults are directed at me.
The longer I live, the more enemy hitscans appear.
Sombra spends almost the entire match jumping me.
Did you know that Hog’s hook has a 20m range but Mercy’s heal has only 15m range? So if Mercy comes close enough to heal someone Hog is dueling, she’s within range to die to the hook combo.
I honestly wish I played the same games as some people who say this Mercy OP/EZ stuff. Playing any support is frustrating. Playing the most defenseless one is a hard life.
You did a lot of research to come to the obvious conclusion that Mercy sucks. I respect it. But… You could have just asked me. I also just realized that your name is Lullaby misspelled. Maybe… Or you are Lula the Bae.
It’s Lullaby yea. I just wanted to double check console, since I know she’s not doing hot on PC but I hadn’t played console since early early OW2 at the most recent and who knows, the two forms have been pretty divided before. Not on Mercy though, both seem to find her underwhelming to put it politely.
