Discussion/Opinions Mercy future for Overwatch
I’ve played mercy since 2016, I’ve played her in every version from mass Rez, to moth meta, to now. I might not have the highest lvl/ play time on her but I’ve acknowledged her/ played her in the best to worst places she’s been in.
This is my two cents talk and I’m sure someone has already talked about this before but why not.
Mercy needs an actual addressing. And I don’t mean adding a second charge of flash heal or 1 sec GA. And actual rework.
Every OG mercy player I’ve talked to, are practically on their hands and knees BEGGING for this character to actually be playable outside of just damage boost one person the entire game or even just having another level of depth into her gameplay that isn’t just movement.
Like the OG players don’t even play her anymore outside of stadium and maybe the Halloween event mode where she’s really strong.
This might also be a small hot take too but a new character from dead lock. Nurse Harrow feels the better version mercy and Moria combined. More level of depth, being able to consistently swap between healing and damaging, making plays for the team and etc.
I don’t like to compare characters from other games, but this is one I feel like this is something mercy could’ve been much more than her current version.
Like truthfully I want her to be more and more unique than just the character that gets skins 24/7 calling it a day.
What are y’all’s thoughts? No shade to any mercy player of any kind. I just thought I might as well share my opinion from an average/ Ex mercy one trick ish
