Swap E-Rez with Valkyrie | Make Rez an Ultimate Again

Two things

First, I have seen (multiple times) a Mercy - the current version of Mercy, even before the recent buff - not only carry, but absolutely dominate games. As such, I respectfully disagree with you, as I have seen this character be more than capable of turning games around

Second, if a player does not believe their character can turn fights around, a player should in my opinion start looking at the other characters to identify one where they do believe they can do so. Mind you, I am not saying this will happen every time, but I think it is best for a player to play a character that they have confidence in, one they believe can be a difference maker in terms of getting the team a win

Let’s just put it that way: I got no interest in other characters. Tried them all, and all felt boring. I can play them, but it won’t be any fun.

My belief based on watching my teammates being killed one by one during Valkyrie, despite healing on all of them.

Factually, this character was buffed (not nerfed) recently

I and many other players I know consider her to be a main healer, and felt this way even before the recent buff

Jayne has also said she is clearly a main healer, this too before the recent buff

Yeah, you’re just trolling or you’re really really bad at Mercy that you’ve convinced yourself it’s everything but you.

Keep trying to downplay luck factor of resurrect, it’s not going to get you anywhere. Or you trying to prove, that you can stand still for nearly 2 seconds in contested area, and not have enemy player put a bullet through your head? Without your teammates putting shield on you, which makes them good.

is she not?

Eh granted even ana right now solo healing isn’t good actually and solo healing is most likely pretty bad cause that ultimately means if you get picked you’re team has pretty much lost

Luck plays literally a minuscule factor in Rez, it’s all you sweetheart.

You keep convincing yourself Rez is luck based. Can’t wait to see how that’s going for you.

Have you rez someome uncontested with no shield? Because I have. It’s about timing and positioning. At this point I can only believe that you’re trying to find reasons to back you up which frankly are non existent. You backed yourself into a corner, dug yourself a hole.

You’re not getting out of it, what I’ve learned from this is that 1) revert players will say anything to back themsleves up 2) you are either really bad a Mercy to think she’s luck based 3) you’re either a really convincing troll or really bad at Overwatch.

why are mercy such “holier than thou” type of people?
Stop acting like mass rez is the only valid opinion pls :blush:

A main healer is based on kit. Main healers are all about sustained healing through a fight and flex healers are more about utility. You don’t pick lucio, brig or zen for their heals.
Same way, ana, moira and mercy are picked for their heals. Ana brings long range bursts, moira has aoe and mercy has consistency and being able to zip among teammates.
She’s still a main healer.

Yes, when enemy team was really blind. It’s not me being good, when other teammates simply choose to ignore immobile target.

Question, why did they nerf mercy in the first place? Didn’t they say it was because she was unfun to play against?

Am I understanding it correctly, then, that you dont want to play other characters but also dont like playing Mercy? (keeping in mind that Mercy is what she is defined to be at present by Blizzard)

If your answer is yes, I have an immediate followup question…

I understand your question, and answer is simple: I bother with competitive strictly for golden weapons. And with game in general strictly for skins/cosmetic items, which Blizzard did a better job with, than with balancing game.

Don’t we all though?

More specifically, it is a buff and a revert exclusive to her ultimate. Something that still doesn’t address the problem people have been talking about with her current state.

  1. She still has one of the least impactful ultimates in the game, which is still unable to heal through most forms of damage, with an ultimate that still has the engagement of a glorified spectator camera.
  2. Ressurect is still on an unearned, 30 second cooldown.
  3. She still has 50hp/s as her main healing, still unable to outheal a Winston.
  4. Jayne can say whatever he wants about the heroes, that is his opinion, and should be taken as such. They don’t develop for the game, nor do they speak for the community as a whole. I think she is clearly more of an off healer, with no utility to back it up, compared to the other off healers, and other people believe so as well. :blush:

There are other games with similar “item acquisition” elements

Would play them, if they are cheap or free. Already playing Destiny 2 from time to time, since it was free.

No one has answered my question? Why did the nerf mercy into the ground, did they not state because she was “unfun to play against”?

They did, and also said that healer shouldn’t stop healing to use their ult.
Now healer stops healing to use their ability, so it’s an improvement :slightly_smiling_face:

First of all Brigitte isn’t fun to play against, so unless she gets nerfed harder than the shield bash then I’d like 5 man Rez back thank you

Yeah considering she’s getting her bash not being able to go thru barriers (Aka a way for rein to have a way to counterplay to bash)

she’s been nerfed like alot so I really wouldn’t hold your breath tbh
