Papi *Dev* was active soon so why not ask?

And why is that?

Oh, the ability is still in that same state; the hero isn’t anymore because they slashed other areas of her kit to make room for said ability.

Care to explain how this is a false equivocation fallacy?

You asked for a quantifier. You got a quantifier.

This is incorrect.

This makes the statement correct.

The window to use Biotic Grenade, when opened, stays open for a very short period of time. There’s an obvious reason for this; the enemy team doesn’t want to get Bio-naded.

For Biotic Grenade to be used well, the person using it needs to be aware of their surroundings, they need to have their timing down, and they need to be able to place the ability where they want to place it. They have a split second to do this, or the opportunity goes away.

On top of all of this, there may be multiple opportunities to chose from at any given time, and they player must quickly decide which one they want to take. Biotic Grenade’s use is influenced by circumstances, but not determined by them. Resurrect is determined by them.

Resurrect’s use is determined by where the hypothetical target dies and where the enemy team is relative to that player. Already the position is predetermined. Execution consists of asking yourself if you are going to get hit by a bus if you stand there for nearly 2 seconds before using GA and Resurrect.

The window of opportunity isn’t short. You don’t need to do any quick actions to Resurrect a player. Resurrecting a single player isn’t impressive either, considering that all it entailed was answering a simple yes/no question and then enduring the self-inflicted penalties.

It’s pretty hard to make any impressive displays when you’re busy freezing yourself in place.

Done. You have yet to actually provide any.

In the same way that crossing the street requires good situational awareness.

Show me where I said Mercy is literally unable to move when she’s using an ability and you might have a case.

Maybe you should understand an ability and its stats before bringing it in for comparison?

I did not fail to argue it. You failed to address it and spent more time bragging about how you addressed it than you did actually addressing it.

It is, isn’t it?

Are you seriously going to argue that the availability isn’t constant? :smile:

No.

She will have it available in 20 seconds.

Hence the fact that it is constant.

I don’t see how the question you asked is at all an argument.

Constant:

  • Occurring continuously over a period of time.
  • A situation or state of affairs that does not change.

Resurrect runs on a cooldown. Its availability matches the criteria of both of the above definitions, and therefore, by definition, is constant.

Can you say with 100% accuracy and certainty when an ability will be available again when given the time since it was last used? If so, it has a constant availability. In your example, because Resurrect was used exactly 10 seconds ago, I can say with 100% accuracy and certainty that it will be available in exactly 20 seconds.

Apparently comparisons are only allowed when they benefit your position.

I mean, you are the one who brought up Biotic Grenade in the first place and compared it to Resurrect

Please, explain to me how this is a false equivocation fallacy.

And the fact that the current Resurrect is literally designed to replace the old Resurrect.

I also fail to see how the two iterations of the abilities have differences disproves my point; one of those differences is literally what I’m contrasting.

Anything to divert attention from a point you can’t address, I guess?

Whoosh.

Yeah. I’m biased against the current version of Mercy. That happens when your favorite character gets removed and replaced with a hero that is mind-numbingly boring to play.

This isn’t an issue of me not being able to learn how to use the new Resurrect; that isn’t a problem, as it’s brain-dead in contrast to the old Resurrect. This is an issue of an amazing ability being replaced with two that are hilariously underwhelming and/or self-punishing; abilities that detract from and contradict the rest of the hero’s kit and playstyle.

Four lines spent on making useless jabs at the other person…

Two lines spent making an assertion that has no supporting arguments or extrapolating examples.

How about an example? So I can shoot that down?

Depends, did you reply to that thread in the last 20 hours? I haven’t checked, and I see that I have 29 new replies.

If not, yes, I have edited my megapost several times since you last replied. In none of those passes did I modify the Resurrect, Valkyrie, and Recent and Previous Developments sections.

I’m looking for you to provide a supporting argument for you claim.

Well, clearly, you do have a lot of time. You can’t seem to go very far without taking potshots at me and/or the post:

Funnily enough, your first reply to my thread was deleted by moderators, if that gives you an idea of how appropriate it really was.

If you’re going to stick your face into the room and make a bunch of wild accusations, at least have the guts to back them up.

Then I’ll teach you a little bit of rationality and logic right here before you go:

That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
