Why does Mercy even have highlight intros?

This is not a revert mercy or rework mercy thread, it’s just a shower thought. I feel like her highlight intros just clog up the lootbox item pool at her current state /:

Because she can get POTG?

Man, she can, but in reality, does she ever? I miss the double rez on Valk days, she was op though

Arcade mode wins? Custom Mercy-only games?

It’s not easy to get POTG with any support, it’s not a Mercy thing.

Again, she can but she doesn’t ever get potg. EDIT: User “Lune” getting potg does not disprove this, it’s an anecdotal occurence, everytime Mercy gets potg it’s a surprise for everyone, bigger than when Ana does.

Ana can use her gun to kill enemies, also her grenade is very powerful and deals damage and heals in AOE.
Lucio can boop off enemies, which basically almost always grants him potg, and clutch beats can become potg.
Zen’s dps is very high so he can kill enemies plus his transcendence’s healing really boosts his chances of getting potg.
Moira basically steals all the other’s teammates kills with her orbs and coalescence (that also heals).
Brigitte heals, stuns, deals damage, blocks, boops, POTG POTENTIAL.

Theres literally someone 3 replies up saying they got a mercy potg today, this statement is instantly wrong

It takes time to write a post, I edited it.

I’ve been getting them a bit more the more often i play her. It just really depends on the circumstances

You know, you really seem like someone who wants mercy reworked/reverted and is using potg as a reason to do so and draw pity to mercy, but what do I know, I’m just gonna share some recorded potgs right here to prove she does still get potg

pretty much works both ways for any mains view.

I only care about mercy, mei, and somewhat sombra. to me the rest of the stuff is clogging up the pool.

moira POTG are common.

Well it is possible to get play of the game with mercy. Plus have you seen them add any event highlight intros for mercy. You’re basically saying why does Sombra’s highlight intro exist. Because sombra basically never gets play of the game.

Seems fair, but I’m sure if one did a stat research she’d be among the last to ever get potg. Again, 4 videos (EDIT: Even 25, 26, 193 videos, it wouldn’t change anything) do not contribute to any proof, also considering the fact that the first one is literally going against the hero’s role.

At last, even if I was advocating for her rework, would I be at fault? Would it be wrong?
