Meanwhile it makes a massive amount of Mercy mains upset because she’s not fun to play and her whole kit has been watered down to compensate for Res on E.
The majority aren’t happy. Let’s make that quite clear.
And the majority of us are left to rot with a OP and broken state of Mercy.
Point is they completely neglected Mercy if they nerfed her 11 times and she’s still OP. Furthermore, they don’t even know what to nerf.

Because there was a reason to rework her.
Even if you thought original mercy was the greatest thing ever, her ultimate took away a lot of fun for a lot of people.
Mercy was basically a troll pick initially cuz mass rez without invis frames was just a suicide move for mercy. She traded her life for her allies.
So then they gave her invis frames and instantly the “right” way to play mercy became “bait their ults and die on point” and every game became playing around mass rez because of the effect it could have and how often she had it.
It wasn’t fun. It wasn’t engaging. It was actually really cheesy… unless you were Mercy. They’re not gonna revert to that and make everyone else mad.

Again, let me restate.
How am I insulting the devs with that statement?
You’re not answering that.
I’m sorry to be this blunt but Mercy mains don’t matter, they don’t balance around mains and they should never balance around mains, they balance for overwatch players as they must, we enjoy all heroes in their own way, saying that there is people who play only mercy and want the best for her is akin to saying that you don’t care about the rest of the game and naturally, devs cannot even take you seriously
You see how you are completely oblivious to statements that challenge you?
it’s insulting because it’s not true, you are calling them hypocrites when they have come forth several times about the issue, you just dislike their answer and hope for them to answer what YOU want to hear which won’t happen, ever
RIP-Tire is unfun for me. Can’t wait for that rework lmfao.
This is a fallacy. Tempo rezzing and actively participating in the fight has always been the best strategy.
Neither is rip tire and every other wiping ult.
Valkyrie is best utilised by staying as far as possible from the fight. The polar opposite of engaging.
People were mad when they reworked her. They really don’t care…

No there wasn’t. There was reason to change Resurrect on Q to provide more counterplay and give her an E ability to compensate.
It wasn’t. It needed iterated on, and like I said in my original post, every ultimate does exactly the same thing at the end of the day. They’re all unfun to play against.
Correct.
That was only effective in low rankings and it was a rarity at best. Like I said in my original post.
On the contrary. It provided a play-making ability for Mercy and it was thrilling to pull off at the perfect times. You’re looking at the side of “Well I’m a DPS and it wasn’t fun for me to have my kills reverted because I didn’t even care about the enemy Mercy.”
Mercy mains are the players that play that hero the MOST and know how she feels and what she needs the best.
If mains don’t matter than the effective Overwatch playerbase doesn’t matter. Everyone has a main whether they like to say they do or don’t.
Example of Blizzard hypocrisy
Once upon a time… Blizzard said she’s supposed to be a solo target healer
A rework later
She now has the AoE heals when in Valkyrie.
Keep in mind that this is one example.
Just because people refuse to believe it doesn’t mean it’s not true. They are hypocrites.

No it is true.
They came out and said the issue was it was disheartening to play against. That’s literally every ultimate in the game. So why is it okay to use it as an excuse to rework Mercy but not other heroes? It’s hypocritical at it’s core.

It’s different to say that you simply enjoy a character more than the others than simply playing said character all the time on every situation, furthermore, if what you say is true then that means that you should love playing as said character without a care for how they balance her
Both statements don’t coincide with what you say, therefore, you are simply making excuses as to why you dislike the changes, true mercy mains enjoy her in every single iteration she’s been in, simple as that, the rest? nostalgia seekers and cultist
You think people who main her should like her state even if it’s bad? This is by far the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard so far…
Also,
Other heroes HAVE been reworked because of this but more importantly this was but one of the many reasons they gave and there were many MANY more
I love the character, but right now I don’t enjoy playing her. It’s a chore. Does that mean I’m no longer a Mercy main or a Mercy player? No. It means my hero was gutted and changed to please a crowd that dislikes the character.
If they gutted your main, would you enjoy playing them? I don’t think so. You’d probably be on here doing exactly what I’m doing.
You’re being ridiculous here. Just because I main a hero means I HAVE to enjoy whatever the devs do that hero?
numbers show that she is nowhere near bad, so what you don’t enjoy comes from nostalgia, however, thank you for insulting me, you have been flagged
No they haven’t.
Not one hero has been reworked because their ‘ultimate felt disheartening to play against’ besides Mercy.
It feels like you’re just trolling me here.

Numbers don’t define the balance state of a hero…
Never said you were stupid. Simply said what you were advertising is stupid but go ahead and false report me. Could care less…
Yes! because what you enjoy they kept! no hero has been changed so much that its core mechanics change, rez still requires a ton of awareness and you still have to fight with tooth and nail to use it when you most need it, saying that they destroyed Mercy is simply preposterous
We are not required to enjoy a hero that we main. Get that through your head. Saying stuff like this is what derails your argument. (Not that it was any good)

You’re clearly deluded here then.
I main Sombra as well, I hate her current state, but I love the hero.
I main Mercy, I hate her current state, but I love the hero.
I know Bastion mains that hate his current state, but love the hero.
I know Symmetra mains that hate her current state, but love the hero.
I know Torbjorn mains that hate his current state, but love the hero.
Same thing with Reinhardt, Roadhog, and others.
