This is what I donât get it too
Mercy have been always extremely boring to play, the way she heals and move never changed. in fact her kit improved with GA with momentum and self regeneration from 3 seconds to 1.
I guess they call it Ăźnfun"because they cannot mass ress every 30-45 seconds like old Mercy who always had mass resurrect on almost every TF.
Just because a group of people are vocal doesnât mean that you should get the right to ignore them. Sorry that you donât like all the Mercy Mains complaining in the forums, maybe you should leave them, thereâs no point in you participating in a group that you donât enjoy.
See how that works? Itâs almost as if everyone has the right to voice their opinions on stuff on the forums, and maybe you should stop wasting your time telling people to stop saying their thoughts and go play a game and learn to stop sh*itting on people all the time for literally no reason. Come on buddy, what is your objective here?
There was never a case where any hero in this game was filling their ult meter in 30 to 45 seconds.
Mercy gives her team immense value with Resurrect, but the team lacks strong healing?
Could it be⌠A trade-off? A downside to having Mercy in return for invaluable utility? Scandalous.
Ok you killed Mercy but she still rezzed. Still 6v5.
I guess this fits here even better 
I can see the problem with too strong healer. When you canât out damage a target healed by Mercy and Zen, but the solution would have been some sort of heal reduction when a target get damage instead of lower Mercys healing. Iâm open for changes but make her unfun as balance strategy?
She was engaging to play when she had res because everyone knew that if you didnât kill the Mercy after a few clutch kills, there was a good chance sheâd get a res off. It created tension and suspense, and the longer a team fight went on the more dangerous it got to be Mercy. The more clever you had to be with your positioning, the faster you had to be with your reflexes, etc. Then you manage to pull the res of and survive and youâve brought back 3 teammates, and the fight is yours! Yes, she WAS engaging and exciting, because there was pacing, thereâs a different thing to do at different points in the fight, thereâs a lot of factors to consider AND youâre still able to DO something that actively pulls the tide of the battle.
These days itâs not even half as engaging to play her, because res is an unrewarded ability so it feels very much like âwell, you got here first, here you goâ, rather than a âI pick you!â kind of thing, and then her ultimate is just⌠Youâre flying now. Have fun getting shot by Widow and Hanzo.
Edit: A typo, but also - These days I feel like everyone just ignores Mercy, I see her flitting out and about and people tend not to focus her down. Back when she had res, EVERYONE knew their job was to kill the Mercy. These days she seems to be almost incidental. I think that alone illustrates the difference in playing her; youâre no longer priority target one, youâre only priority target one if itâs convenient, and thatâs just⌠Not the same??
What other hero main community whines sooooo much?
Ex. Doomfist is F-tier for a year essentially, no one bats an eye. Mercy receives a 10hps nerf and everyone looses their mind over their OP hero being suddenly âunder poweredâ.
Mercy mains just seem entitled, and Iâm sick of having the meta always requring a mercy.
Have you considered that maybe theyâre being vocal because they have something legitimate to complain about?
Like - everyone saying that they âwhine too muchâ remind me of white people saying that black people need to be âmore civil and respectfulâ when asking for their civil liberties. Youâre trying to shut down complaints from people by just saying they complain too much and ignoring their points, rather than⌠IDK, considering that maybe they have legit complaints???
actually it was very quick, there where situation when I keep shooting tanks on 2cp to res multiple time in one fight. 30s was doable.
Consistently doable? Because thatâs what weâre talking about. It isnât âI know a guy that finished high school in 3 weeksâ, or âI know a guy that retired at age 33â.
But does it really need to be on the front page of the forum every single day? Nothing original is being added to the conversation.
Lets be honest, her being a curvy swiss woman with an attractive voice is 80% of the reason why so many people play her. So go play a different hero for a game that isnât OP and easy to use on a fundamental level. Thatâs an actual struggle.
Consistently doable maybe not but charge in 30-45s within a big fight happened quite often.
In fairness, does anything discussed on these forums really have to be discussed? Itâs a video game, none of this is really important in any way.
And so youâre seeing the point â that characterizing Mercy as gaining her ultimate every 45 seconds was and is a gross misrepresentation of the state that things were in. Otherwise itâs just being contrarian for its own sake.
Team 4: âWe want Mercy to be all about Movement and Healing and less about Resurrect.â
Also team 4: Continues to make Resurrect Mercyâs only way to have any impact.
You didnât at all address my point, which was âHave you considered they have legitimate complaints and have a good reason for being vocal?â
Saying that âoriginal thingsâ must be âadded to the conversationâ just puts another hurdle for people to voice their opinions. This is a forum. Where people talk about the game. Where else should they be discussing the perpetual Mercy problem? Into a tin can in the backyard??
Your sexist thoughts on why people play Mercy are your own, and just because YOU think people play her because sheâs sexy doesnât mean that the Mercy players donât have legit complaints about a character they used to love.
Seriously, do they even teach debate in highschool anymore? Does anyone even know what an argument and a counterargument are? How to make a counterpoint? Any of these things? Itâs like talking to a field of bananas.
Yes hello? I need to call a fire truck, someone was just incinerated over hereâŚ
On your 2nd and 3rd points:
2 - Yes but the problem is, it is incredibly annoying to use. Mercyâs gameplay is about rapid moving between allies, Ress as is gives you whiplash from how you went from fast to literally still waiting to be killed. Cast-Time is what kills the ability. There is plenty of other things that could be nerfed instead of making it a suicide button.
3 - Yes it did, both theme-wise and gameplay wise. It could use some adjustments to give it some counter-play, but still. And weaker healers arenât weaker because they have stronger ults, they are weaker healers because they do something else other than healing.
All other healers can damage while still healing(Even Moira or Ana with their Abilities) and have ways to increase their healing(save for Zen, but he is a half-DPS). Lucio has Amp, Moira has her Ball, Brig has Repair Pack, Ana has Grenade.
Mercy has somewhat high and concistent healing because she is 90% of the time healing. She doenât contribute with damage, and even if sheâs DMG Boosting, that means sheâs not healing, while the other healers can do both at the same time(heal and contribute with DMG or utility). Mercy doesnât attack, doesnât have burst healing and has no utility, what she HAD was good healing and survivabilty, and her âutilityâ was the Ress, which was a form of burst healing. It was unique and it was hers.
Meh I still see Mercy being a crucial pick for the upcoming meta. Damage Boost and Resurrect is just too good to pass up.
