Great healing, great mobility, great side ability that literally nobody else has, and an ult that can keep an entire team alive. Mind you, you get the ult fairly quickly. I don’t see any ill in how Mercy is played. So please, explain why she needs a buff. (Not being a flashy character is not a valid excuse.)

Chain healing, 60 hps, that’s pretty good sustain imo. And your other healer should be doing work on the tanks, so here you go.

So people will stop demanding I play Ana.

Because Mercy promotes diverse DPS metas where multiple comps are viable, unlike Ana who promote tanky/deathball comps 
People who want Ana to reign supreme because “muh skill” also want DPS to be viable because “muh skill”, yet don’t realize that everyime Ana is meta, she just turns the meta into a Rein Zarya tank fest. She also isn’t hard to play when she is meta, as she can just spam into tanks. Her shots, nades, and sleeps become 100% easier to hit on large targets.
That’s the hard truth

This is your fourth(?) Mercy related thread tonight.
You can stop anytime really, there’s not enough soup in the pot to stir up.
Everyone’s too busy testing Baps.

Let’s be real now. Most of the time the beam doesn’t even chain all 5 people.

You do realize that just because you believe that #MercyIsFine, doesn’t mean that everyone thinks #MercyIsFine…

If they are coordinated, they will be. And most of the time, in comp, that is what people aim to do.
Mostly only happening in 5% of the playerbase.
Dont try to focus on the most optimal situations only, also look at the average.

I know folks get pretty mad when i bring this up but that idea by itself is quite misguided, even if the rest of your post weren’t true (it is though).
If you wanted a meta based on skill ceilings alone (assuming 2/2/2), Ana would not be filling one of the support slots.

Same is true for the opposite. What’s the point?

I want more of a power shift than a straight buff.
As for why I want it…
Despite Mercy’s low (for a main healer) healing per second, she’s the only healer who can only do one thing at a time and can’t even fake doing more than one thing at a time through long duration abilities, and she’s the only healer in the game who has no way to either drastically increase her healing per second or provide a burst heal.
The downside they gave to Resurrect has no place on what is otherwise an incredibly mobile hero.
Valkyrie is her ultimate. However… using the word ultimate to describe Valkyrie is incorrect. The word Ultimate means “the best or most extreme of its kind”. Valkyrie does a lot of things, but none of those things are the best for that thing. In fact… Resurrect is more deserving of the title “Ultimate”. Can you name another hero who can bring back a dead teammate? I sure can’t.
Also… auras are garbage. I have not seen a single game get auras right to the point where they both feel good to use and aren’t brokenly overpowered. That is exactly what the chain beams on Valkyrie are though… and… well they feel incredibly unimpactful. There’s a reason why League of Legends reworked their musical aura champion (Sona) to not have auras anymore. There’s also a reason why Lucio got his mini rework ages ago that made his aura smaller but stronger.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING IT!
FFS I’m so tired of Ana mains acting like they’re so much better than Mercy mains because they have to aim. Its not that hard when you just stand in the back uncontested, Mercy is up there on the front lines darting between cover trying to stay alive while Ana just yeets her nade in their general direction and wins a fight, lol

Eh, she might be a bit weak, particularly after damage boost was adjusted. The game is healthier with variety.

She’s not trash, she’s just not as good as the other Supports right now. She got unnecessarily nerfed into the ground after her rework and now she struggles to keep up after the big Support buff patch (that also unnecessarily nerfed her again.)
You want to kill Goats? Buff Mercy. Enable DPS to do their jobs again.
