What went wrong?

blizzard infused her with some kind of medusa powers that turn my dick into stone every time I see her, that's what went wrong

nothing. mercy is best healer.

Blizzard did after being brought out by activision.

Overwatch is garbage

They nerfed her perfectly balanced ult and introduced a myriad of new ways to easily take her out. Her ult needs to charge quickly and they seem to have forgotten they learned this in the beta and that's why her ult was sped up in the first place.

If she is going to stay like this with a super slow ult she needs a D.va style buff everything remake.

Her ult charge is too slow now. Every other healer and do dps at the same time. Mercy can't so she used to single Rez instead of damage now it's so slow you're afraid to use it on anything but full team rezzing.

Haven't touched her since update.

She just... dies.

Wasn't it only a 10% increase?

They buffed McCree despite him not needing that buff

her teammates

Pretty much, her revive was a bit of a hybrid ability where you could use it for big ultimate revives or you could use it on just one person. I loved how much strategy was involved in this because it rewarded good gamesense and in many cases a single solo revive was enough to turn the tide.

Now? She still has no defense and dies even easier to the buffed heroes, her healing output is less than Lucio in this meta, her damage boost is complete trash compared to discord, and defending teams are losing a lot more now because she can't get her ult up in the first push anymore to discourage diving killtrades.

Has blizzard always been this knee jerk reactionary about player complaints? It seems like all it takes to get a character nerfed to shit is some kid bad mouthing them on the forums

Every other support out classed her even before the nerf.

Except Zen, who got a major buff in the patch.

they released a game with a garbage competitive system, broken hitboxes, broken heroes and just in general broken shitfest.

30% its a drastic increase.

Genji, and his .1 second 175 damage macro.

For me personally the charge rate change hasn't affected me much, usually there were never times where I was able to spam it to begin with, I either waited for 2 or more people to be able to rez, use it on a critical person, or on my friend. As a Mercy main even I have to say that I felt her ult charged a little too fast, playing against other Mercy's made me realize how annoying it can be. For me she's always been a great healer, I like Lucio, but I feel I can keep the team alive better as Mercy.

I feel like her rez ability is fine where it is. It makes the other healers obsolete if it's too quick to charge.

Everyone instantly focuses her the instant she comes onto the battlefield.

Wtf!? They do that and also completely drop the buff they were going to give to her damage boost? Meanwhile they practcally buff the ult charge of every self healing hero. What were they thinking?

She is obsolete right now, her ult charges too slowly to use and she has no other benefit.

>No defense
>No offense
>Discord > damage boost

Teams just run Lucio instead for his mindless healing, Zenyatta is mandatory and he fills in the gaps.

other supports make her obsolete though.


Lucio has better healing + utility
Zenyatta has way better damage + discord orb
Ana has burst healing, and hard CC

Pharah is virgin, you better delete this

>other supports make her obsolete
Are we playing the same game with the same people?
every time someone is playing zen or ana I have to switch to mercy so people will actually get healed.

The current meta is Lucio and Zen on every map, this goes for pro games and all high end ranked matches.

Hnnnngggggg

Mercy does 50hp/s
Zeny does 30hp/s

Of course mercy can heal more, but you give up the fact that Zeny can heal, grant a 50% defense debuff and 100 dps all at the same time.

>meta
into the trash you go

Not enough porn of her

...

>Nerfed her ult charge
>Buffed her damage boost but then reverted that
>Has zero self defense capabilities compared to other support heroes
>Other support heroes all got buffs so they all get instalocked before you can even pick Mercy

No one cares what bad players at rank 30 are doing, what does matter is what works in games between skilled players who understand the game.

I have over 100 hours as Mercy in retail and another 60+ from the beta, in this patch she is terrible and you absolutely need a Zen and Lucio if you want to stand a chance. It's painfully boring to play Lucio and I'm not having the slightest bit of fun.

You're doing something wrong if you need a zen and lucio senpai

Yes, every single person besides yourself is playing this patch wrong.

I don't see anything wrong here

Yeah it seems like it.

>zen has a discord orb for your entire team which shows enemy position and that person takes 50% more damage from EVERYONE
>mercy having 50% for ONE CHARACTER was deemed too much
?

>22 characters
>only 6 on a team
>no picks/bans
>people surprised that there are only 6-8 competitively viable characters at a time

>Discord orb now hits the enemy instantly
>No cooldown to put it on another enemy
>Has a range of 40m so Zen never actually has to get close to whoever he is targeting

>Mercy has to stay within 10 feet of whoever she is healing/buffing at all times

She should have a Nazi uniform as an alternate costume

If you look closely you can see where there is a different between the 50%'s.

Zenyatta makes it so that one person can only take the extra damage, while mercy makes it so every enemy can be effected by the boosted damage.


The big issue was Mercy + Mcree. Cowboy being boosted meant he could kill 200hp heros in 1headshot, or 2 bodyshots. Couple that with his damage falloff buff meant he was sniping with impunity.
Honestly I wondered why Blizzard didnt try any other lower numbers rather then revert immediately to 30% again.

Should have been boosted to 40

>guardian angel only form of 'defence' which relies on teammates
>ult nerfed
>healing/buff range nerfed and not told in patch notes
>no longer single fastest healing
>has terrible skins
why does blizzard hate us so much? Do you want me to play Lucio that badly?

but hey! guardian angels 2 second cooldown is now reset when you ult!


So you can fly to the people you just rezzed standing right by you!

>Terrible skins

Imp/Devil is alright, if a little overdesigned compared to the base angel design. Could have done without the buttplug tail, for example.

>Genji and Tracer still running around uncontested
>Pharah gets 3 counters in one patch

Thanks Blizzard

>not needing it

T. A shitter

Blizzard just rucked his buff, he is played as a sniper because he has shit mobility and fan the hammer is unreliable piece of shit.

literally nothing

>uncontested
>dies to Winston, with or without Zen support
become proficient

I hate the shit on her forehead, just the horns would have been fine and can't play sigrun/valkyrie because of her ult line. Like cobalt and amber best.

Those both are shit. Cobalt is best amd it is only a recolor.

>implying anyone plays Winston with Reaper running around

not him but winston just makes them go away since his dps is not really high, not to mention there is at least a reaper every game rekting your anus. STILL TRYING TO PLAY HERO MONKEY

>competent genji or trace ever dying to winston
>implying winston isn't shit tier now that nobody plays widow

so it begins.
Sup Forums changes it's opinion again.
in 6 month from now, everyone on Sup Forums will hate this game.

monkey man is being slowly eliminated in pro scene because of d.va mccree buffs.

Overrated/10

Adam?
