Resurrect genuinely hinders Mercyâs kit and was a broken feature since launch.
Resurrect is one of the only abilities that you donât even get to utilise regularly because of itâs risks, of the fact that it requires for someone to be dead and in a safe enough location and for the resurrect to not be a throwaway.
Mercyâs two only abilities rely on her team and thatâs not considering other conditions.
thus making it an ability for you to take risks and strategize on if you should bring back that dead teammate and not making it an unstoppable ability.
Because shes team dependant.
Resurrect is a core part of her kit and if it was removed then just remove mercy because noone will play her because they only play her because resurrect is an impactful ability in ways. And rez is balanced the way it is, and shes arguably one of the most balanced heroes in this game.
What? I donât care that much about this balance proposition, but resurrection may be situationally powerful, but⌠30s of cooldown, a dead teammate, and that the teammate is reasonably reached. Thatâs a bit situational.
And reminder that putting âtRoLl pOsTâ in front of any random post may not always guarantee 90 likes.
Rez is supposed to be situational, and why would I want 90 likes? to boost my ego? lol
Plus i wasnt talking to you i was talking to Samurai, while yes putting troll post was disrespectful of me, i honestly thought this was a joke post lol
You didnât read the post, did you?
Shouldâve read the post and not just the title, because compensation was suggested⌠They donât want to harm Mercy. Just give her an ability that could be more generally applicable.
The only reason she is good is because Ashe and Echo are meta which equally benefit from a Mercy pocket.
Once theyâre gone from the META, she will die down with them. Notice how this is the first time that Mercy is GENUINELY META in over a year? yeah.
(PS. this is not mentioning the fact that everyone parring Moira is actually META rn).
It wasnât only about that. It made people essentially throw their fights/matches for a âmass rezâ moment because it reset the fight with an enemy team that was already half-way exhausted.
Also - back then Res was instant too.
It wouldnât ever be an unstoppable ability.
it gets cancelled by everything, boop, stun, radiusâŚ
There are simply too many risks for one ability that is already EXTREMELY situational on the basis that you can use it.
They play her for resurrect? LOL.
Havenât heard that in a long time.
Sheâs played because of her synergy with DPS heroes, because of her mobility and because she can dish out consistent healing.
Her resurrect is nothing more than an afterthought.
Also, having her WHOLE kit be reliant on her team is trash balancing. You take her teammates away and the literal only thing that Mercy can use is her pistol - she is the equivalent of a Baby DVA and the reason a player gets into Baby DVA state is because theyâre essentially being punished.
Except none of those hinder the heroes theyâre for. The reason that Mercy rarely receives buffs is because her kit has been broken from launch.
Again, NO hero should be as team reliant as she is.
yeah⌠an ability that reduces her movement speed by 75%, cast time is 1.75 seconds, no invincibility, and has 30 seconds and resurrects one ally at a time is defiantly one of the worst abilities balance wise.
Rez is a decision maker if the Mercy player decided to revive their teammate or not. Smart Mercy players know the risks while those in the lower ranks will just go YOLO & attempt to rez their fallen Reinhardt by getting themselves killed.
Rez is an ability that teaches Mercy players to observe the situation that they shouldnât risk their lives to bring back a dead Reinhardt but focus on keeping the rest of the team alive.
The return value for pulling off a resurrect is the reason it is so punishable in the first place but it makes the ability so situational that it makes it one of the least consistent abilities in the entire game - in an ability based game.
because it needs counters. Ever thought of that? thats why you rez SAFELY when you KNOW that you wont get stunned, booped or hacked. Or just commun with ur team and ask for protection
Why are people so cringey about Rez? She is a bloody doctor for crying out loud lol its just like how people whine & complain about Baptiste with Immortality FieldâŚ
I mean, Telling your entire team to flush towards the point while your main healer hides and all your allys die and then their all just brung back by a mercy rezzing behind a wall does sound awful, also it stole tons of potgâs
