Overwatch, good game-low standards

If the community decided the balancing, it would be an absolute nightmare. Just because the community wants something does not mean its balanced in anyway.

I find Why I Have Yet to Not Despise Mercy's Current State to be pretty spot on.

Is she? Don’t think you’ll find much agreement on that.
objectively? Statistics indicate otherwise.

23

She is now at 49,45% winrate…

24

Which is the sixth lowest winrate

25

And closer to 50% (which is balanced)

26

And Mercy is also supposed to put out the most healing on average (which she doesn’t, at the moment)

27

Yes. Nerf moira slightly.
(though mercy really has the most healing currently)

28

Is 50% balanced though? If a character is OP or UP, it’s winrate tends to slide closer to 50 as it is mirrored on teams or used in its niche senarios. Bastion has a slightly higher winrate then mercy, I hope you don’t think he is fine. The reason she still has a high pickrate now is she is used for rez as an off support, paired with Ana or moira. The devs wanted her to be the go to for consistent heals, but she no longer fits that role as her rez takes up so much of her kit. I would much rather have Ana or moira for consistent heals now. She is used in the exact opposite way from the devs intentions and is not balanced

29

But Moira is fine, though?

On top of that, I’d rather see Mercy’s nerfs from the support patch simply be undone in order to bring Ana back in line, than for Blizzard to touch her.

Yes?
They will have 1 loss for every win.
If one player plays another and both pick the same hero, 50% is balanced.

31

I think that’s what you meant to say

32

She has more healing than mercy (though mercy has an additional 6 resurrects per game)
Mercy has more healing than ana.

33

No.
Mercy.
Her healing is slightly below Moiras, though she can rez players.

34

Ana also has actual kills, so does moira

35

Which makes them too strong. As they have above 50% win rates.

36

Rez is useless if your team is dying faster than you can Rez them, which is exactly what happens with Mercy’s 50 HP/s healing rate.

37

Moira’s average kills are around 24, which is definitely more game changing than 6 resurrections

38

Ana doesn’t, she is right around mercy actually
Edit: Moira is also only .5% above 50% winrate

39

Then what’s the problem? Give moira a slight nerf ana a slight buff, and mercy is getting a slight buff.
50% winrate for each of them.

polls are horrible and don’t make up good proportion of the game’s community esp when player’s aren’t aware of it and miss the poll. Community balancing isn’t even good when done right.

even single image lore content or lore audio clips I’d love.

I’m not opposed to this. I’d like something that I actually like to spend my comp points on
