Is Mercy’s really a buff or was it a bug fix though, that is the question XD

HEY! You’re right! WHY!? Couldn’t he get a revert to his nades?
Yeah they have had lots of time… hence the big patch.
You think this update came as a whim?
No it took work
It’s a bug fix…Valk went through barriers before with no issue. So not sure why it’s being called a buff.

Umm IF is one of the strongest abilities in the game. If placed correctly it can counter basically every dps ult in the game for only a 20 sec cooldown. Flankers are basically useless since by the time they get backline and start poking an IF is thrown out and while they try and destroy that they either get cc’d or headshot or killed from poke. And the Moira nerfs are pretty good, she’s one of the best duelists in the game. Invis/mobility(small invis ik), leech healing. Orb that does massive healing or massive dmg. Moira can kill someone in less than 3 seconds if she lands her aim(which has the easiest hitbox in the game besides mercy/winston). And she’s a small target. Literally a flanker’s nightmare.
Again doesn’t make you immune to any CC effects. Hog and Doom are actually super great against it with hook, and Whole Hog, end everything Doom does.
Heck Junkrat’s mines can blast a person out of it.
It’s strong but not insane. And again, it’s pointless cause a lot of Bap players know how to position it out of LOS. So it feels more like a “we haven’t touched him, time for a pointless nerf”
Because that’s what she was designed to be? She’s anti-dive in exchange for no utility outside of healing and damage.
Also LAST meta she was considered trash. With people BEGGING for buffs or added utility to her.
I mean…how much is this going to change for her? Not much in the long run.
Its not, actually i hope they nerf him even more
discussing patch notes is absolutley futile, nobody even reads this… not even mentioning reacting to our petty comments
Good. I’ll be honest, I needed that handicap desperately. Flankers made me quit the game before Moira and Brigitte came around. And now they’re being nerfed, which probably means it’s time for another break. I can’t enjoy this game with no way to fight off flankers or run from enemy players reliably.

About time.
FINALLY! I’ve been waiting for this bug fix for so long!
Now I can finally distribute rally from stairs!
yeah but with your list it all costs so much for the attacker to risk or lose. Hog comes in and if 2-3 of your team turns and blasts him easy. He shouldn’t really be flanking and if he hooks from the front that’s a tank issue. Unless the doomfist kills with punch by the time he can kill you all it takes is an Ana sleep, Mei wall/freeze, Mcree flash, or some chip damage and he’s screwed. The IF buys so much time for the Baptiste’s team to save. And yeah but think how crazy that is for Moira. She can SOLO 1v1 the best assassin/flanker dps champions as a SUPPORT. All while not requiring her to land skill shots or any intense mechanics. And she always has the saftey net of fade behind a wall while her orb comes up to heal back to full.
I mean tbh that’s a mad cuz bad situation. The mechanics/skill required for a Tracer are far harder than for a Moira to kill a Tracer or Briggite to kill tracer. Same for Genji.
I get it, it’s just not an enjoyable experience at all. If I can’t do anything, I’m a waste of space.
It’s never a good experience getting rolled but that’s just where you have to improve.
What a huge nerf to Sig. Really don’t think that was needed. That’s dangerous close to him being a very bad pick.
Seems you’re missing the point that the nerfs are pointless because they really don’t hinder the play of them.
Again, Bap’s know how to have IF in cover and out of LOS, so the health nerf is pointless. Not going to be a big issue, but pointless never the less.
If anything the Moira nerf is for DPS players going Moira cause they don’t wanna queue, cause again not seeing how this is going to affect good Moira players.
I mean it’s her self healing…not her orb or fade so that’s not going to stop her from fading and using orb as you said .
Tried that for two years. It didn’t work. At some point I was putting in 100% more effort for .000003% improvement, and just getting dumpstered. At nearly no point was I playing against players as bad as me, so I needed a handicap. It’s a lot like when I tried to play Street Fighter against friends. They dumped on me for weeks until I quit, then wondered why I didn’t want to play anymore.
I do agree it wasn’t a very big/helpful nerf but it’s more of a slight nerf to help flankers kill it quickly before being killed themselves. Could’ve been done a lot better tbh.
I dunno what to say to that tbh ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Personally I started in Bronze back in 2016 and just hit Diamond about a month ago. Mix of mechanics and being like why i died. You’re not very high level though.
