What's the point of Mercy?

I noticed he got a burst heal that people were throwing around as an idea for Mercy too, so they are listening to us, just listening for ideas to put on other heroes (womp womp)

The main point of Mercy is to be the martyr that accepts ALL the hate from the community and that has a playerbase that can not agree on anything, thus causing more hate.

This will be good for her in the long run as this will bring more attention on Mercy in terms of buffing her.

I always said that she needed burst healing when reviving successfully…

Even worse why does some random foot soldier have the ability to prevent death when the person known for their medical advancements cannot? It would be a great replacement to rez but ah well. His BR like weapon was all I needed to be convinced to play him but the no death ability should be on Mercy.

If u complain about mercy why u dont play ana…oh yeah u need to aim u cant just hold mouse1 and win the game

Ana is my second most played hero. In fact, I only play Ana in comp. Also, my aim is 44% on McCree. This has nothing to do with aim skill, it’s just something Mercy haters love to parrot.

The Valkyrie change to remove the slow is amazing but I thought I was lagging at first.

If it’s undoccumented I’ll be extremely sad to see it go. Now if they did the same for outside of Valk that’d be great

No actual Mercy player holds M1. Toggle on is the better setting but you obviously wouldn’t know that

Mercy is there if you don’t want to play someone as multitask oriented and strenuous as Baps. Aka she’s base default, and simple.

Hopefully not

The point of #RevertMercy is to bring Mercy back to being in a state where she is engaging, rewarding, and impactful to play. Particularly with her ultimate.

Mercy being used competitively in ladder is different from Mercy being reworked against the will of her playerbase due to the “unfun to play against” argument, gutted, and no longer being impactful, engaging, rewarding, or having agency as her fellow supports. :blush:

In my opinion, everything Mercy is supposed to do, Baptiste can do… Better.

Well… I suppose unless it’s spectating, Mercy certainly has Baptiste beat there. :blush:

I hope Baptiste is a harbinger of Mercy’s buffs. They created him to be DPS enabler, Mercy is also dps enabler (who is not currently good, but she could be)

There’s a lot of points actually. Mercy+baptiste will be better than mercy zen mercy lucio comps. Plus dps are coming back eventually where mercy is still solid.

a long time ago i actually thought about changing rez into preventing death like baps E skill.

but when i brought it up in the old forums, it was not received very well.

That’s every support. Except for the accessibility and consistency parts.

Same. I am glad that they also are intending that he be a main healer like Mercy (Jeff mentioning this also in a way brings me hope). I am excited to see how these next few months pan out for Mercy and her players. Fingers crossed! :blue_heart:

I don’t think he can rez who already died, prevention isn’t the same since you can’t predict the exact time that your teammate will die.

So not every support then? Lmfao, just not Ana, Moira, Lucio, Brigitte and Zenyatta.
