Personally, I find that the current version of Mercy is the best version of Mercy…as such, I dont feel the character is “butchered”

I take it that I was correct in my presumption, and as such, will continue on the basis that it is

Factually, your statement was “I have concrete boots on”; and factually, Mercy does not have concrete boots on when she performs rez

That’s hardly relevant. The character was designed in a way that was intended by the developer, it worked well and then a major change had to be made because of a large amount of bad overwatch players. That’s butchering, regardless of what you personally like.

Factually I was speaking Figuratively

I find my statement to be entirely relevant

Factually, the dev team explained why/how mass rez did not work well in the video message that was associated with the removal of mass rez

To me, the term “butchered” carries with it the connotation that the character doesnt operate as well anymore, and I feel she operates far better in her current state than she ever has.

If you wish to see butchery, ask Torb for an armor pack

The statements I quoted appear to me to have been stated as fact

Then factually you misinterpreted my text, which to me is surprising since it is common knowledge that no concrete boots appear on screen or in the animation. I thought the metaphor was obvious, but it would appear that figurative speech is not obvious to everyone.

The two statements I read were “I have concrete boots on” and “frozen in place”

These appear to me, even after your clarifications, as statements made as facts; though they are not facts in regards to Mercy’s movement while performing rez

Having Mercy dominate across all the ranks by sheer value of being easy to play wasn’t healthy for the game. I don’t mind her dominating low or mid ranks. But she simply doesn’t belong at the high ranks.

Still false reporting

She is played at GM and above

She has been played in meaningful pro games

Why shouldnt a GM or pro player be permitted to play her, same as everyone else?

uh…what?

So even after clarifying that 75% movement reduction feels like having concrete boots when your enjoyment comes from swoosh swoosh (guardian angel) and also clarifying that it was meant as figuratively you are going back to throwing the grammar law in my face? Well, “don’t feed the trolls” I guess. You will see no more replies from me in regards to your statements on this matter.

Because i shouldn’t have to play such a ridiculously easy hero.
I shouldn’t have to play the pacifist in an action based fps. I should have room for skill expression. If the more difficult options are inferior to this mindnumbing hero at the top, then what hopes do i have?

I wish she didn’t exist at all tbh.
So that people would stop asking for buffs or her being strong at the top.

Why was this post flagged?

Factually, there is nothing self-proclaimed about it…english grammar applies to all statements made in english.

It is universal, not mine specifically

the thread got flagged, and it doesnt break the CoC

so its false reporting

They asked their mom and momma said she likes Mercy.

He literally used the laaaal 4head meme.
