As much as most of us hate Moth Meta we can all agree on one thing it had the most variety. She made everything Viable. Mercy and Zen is still My favorite support pair along with Mercy, Brig. Like Snipers were viable and dive was viable you could run Rush and use Damage Boost And Discord to try a kill them. That is Why People were attracted to Mercy she had cool abilities and was very versatile. Mercy should be the support with a perfect mix of utilty and Healing.

the only issue was support viability (other than mercy and zen lol) and rein was garbo in comparison to the dive tanks
I never get to try Mercy during the Moth Meta 
Towards the end of moth meta We saw Brig and Lucio
Mercy was super OP (which we don’t want back), but she does enable some pretty diverse comps. So people really should want a Mercy Meta.

Don’t bother. People here for some reason don’t seem to grasp, hey this lady promotes aggressive fast plays and is excellent for supporting dps.
Hey this lade promotes slow plays and is excellent at supporting tanks.
Make the tank lady be 10x better in every situation please.
Why dps no impact ???

Is the Tank Lady Ana.
I don’t get why players hated Mercy so much. She enables/enabled tanks and DPS so well. Honestly speaking Ana/Brig/Bap (not Moira, my mistake lol) being meta is probably the reason DPS feels so crap to play now.
Kind of. The forums hate Brig and Mercy but they are the ones who peel for zen and enable dps with pack and beam.
But the forums love Ana Lucio and those two spend most of their time speed boosting naded tanks into peoples faces.

People Hated Mercy Because of the rez. I loved Owl this week because we saw the return of Echo there was dva and still doubleshield And People Complain about being bored
It’s funny though because it mainly came from DPS when she enabled them the most. Shot themselves in the foot with that, especially with Mercys who don’t play to pocket.

Probably Why Those two will never be out of meta for long
It had pretty decent variety for the non-support players. Mercy never really countered anything specific (she just countered kills altogether), so other than having a Graviton Surge or Pulse Bomb or something to catch and kill the boss herself, she didn’t really dictate what else should be meta.
Of course, if you ever felt like playing a non-Mercy support, you better hope one of your teammates likes Mercy.
Yup and Damage Boost on Winston is Viable and Hog even had PLAYTIME back then. Mercy and Ana are probably the two supports most healthy for the game
I just want her 60 healing back as well, because I know they do not want to touch rez or Valk with a 50 foot pole. Can’t believe Blizz thought 50 HPS against burst damage was a good idea. I also hate the idea of Mercy as an off support / pocket healer (no support should just stand there and be bored holding M2 on a carry 24/7) but again I’m biased.
Moth Meta did make alot of characters viable but it did undermine alot of the other supports making mercy a must pick you found what other support could carry under her and it just made her unlikeable. Even for me as a Mercy Main that meta was fun for a few days but it got old and irritating because i wanted to utilitize other supports.
I think the best part was probably before the nerf of the nerf of 60hps. Also I dont think 60hps will be enough anymore because of the games progression All the Characters that have been added have Burst and Aoe. Burst Including Damage and Support and Aoe Support unless you are Ashe and I also main Ashe aswell
I genuinely just do not remember why they gave her 50 HPs. Like it was her ultimate that was broken, and then you went as far as to nerf her primary healing? 
True If you didn’t Play Mercy or Zen back then there was a problem However at the end of the meta we saw More Supports Especially Brig and Moira and Lucio occasionally also Ana too. That was probably the best time The last 2 months of the moth meta
I agree Moth Meta did in fact see alot of characters being played and it was great to see that being done.
