RE: (Overwatch) Big nerf turned Mercy into Goddess?

in #game7 years ago

Ooh there are fellow overwatchers on here! I agree that the mercy update really wasn't a nerf since I'm actually getting more resses and healing done now than I was before (I was a tempo resser myself) so there's really been no downside for me. But I guess the thing a lot of people had a problem with was the big teamwipe resses and it's solved that at least. Actually I wasn't a fan of being expected to "hide" while all the action was going on in case of a teamwipe and then being blamed if I got found haha so there are certainly some benefits on both sides.

I do think it has increased the skillcap though, you can't just ress every person that dies because often they die out of position and you practically have to "touch" them to bring them back.. which often causes both you and them to die again. Also you have to be super careful with when you use her new ult because if you're too low or the enemy team has say soldier's tac visor or mccree's high noon then you're kinda dead before you get to use that second res.

But anyway I totally agree it wasn't a nerf for players like me and she's certainly the new "must pick" support, which is great for mercy mains like me :D

Great post @linoxx! and sorry for the super long comment haha. I actually posted some of my own mercy 2.0 gameplay and highlights on here which you could check out if it wouldn't make your blood boil too much ;)
