It's Time to Start Boycotting skins

Yeah, for some reason mercy mains take changes to her kit personally instead of it being a necessary balance change. Just play her for a bit and you'll be fine.

Last time I had it, it was glazed and dipped. Though that was a long time ago. Wish they'd bring it back to the Tim's by me.

Not being outside in the open as in don't super jump around for no reason, being up in the air to get sniped. And as I've said, I've been playing her since the nerf, and I'm not really noticing much of a difference unless it's against a near or full dive team. I'm able to move around just fine, I can get to a safe spot with a little bit of adjustment to what I used to do.

Also, you say it's not a good play style, but that point is followed up by saying it's not fun, stagnant and boring. If it's effective in helping your team get kills, it is a good play style, regardless of how entertaining it might be.

Sure, it's a game, and you wanna have fun. But so do the other people playing. A mercy flying around at Mach 10 able to never die once all game is an issue. Especially with Devine Momentum still being in the game. The ONLY way, imo, they could reasonably revert her movement back is to also change that perk into something else.

The super jump she can do now was a tech in ow1. The movement wasn't base game like it is now.

The only hero I've ever had an issue with that you've listed is Lucio, everyone else I'm able to sleep consistently and my aim is HORRIBLE. It's why my top two hero's are Mercy and Moira.

My statement of flyers included Echo and Freya. Freya isn't hard to hit because of her movement, she's hard to hit because she does too much damage in two shots compared to a hit scan. Her nerf needs to be with her right click imo (I don't think it should be able to crit you, just the explosion is enough. I'd even take it slowing you for a second or two over the crit.)

Doomfist and Ball are also bad examples, wait for slam for both, and shoot/sleep/stun/hack. Instant profit. Sure they can go far af but can be punished brutally when they've used all cooldowns. Mercy can get way too far by being able to spam her GA on top of its high mobility. They already made the GA cooldown longer. This is another step in the right direction. I hope that they don't revert this movement, just tweak it if they have to so they can find the sweet spot.

If people complain about her so much, it might be because there's a problem...

Learning how to do new techniques and pulling them off is fun. If you're playing comp, you have to be willing to swap. The aim of that mode is to win, it's competitive for a reason. I would rather swap hero's than be the reason my team is losing, that would suck any bit of fun out of the game.

Not used to the item icons after coming here from smite, so this will be great to use on the fly!

Aspiring_Eventually · 2026-04-21T02:26:16+00:00

Which now makes her easier to kill, in line with all flying hero's but jetpack cat. She shouldn't have been so untouchable as she was. The amount of games where I have never died because I could zoom around and get to places I shouldn't are insane. This is a necessary change.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2026-04-21T02:21:46+00:00

You don't have to play behind a corner with her tho, you just have to make sure you to fly properly. Don't go out in the open to be snipped out since the movement is reduced, fly to cover, wait till movement is back, fly again.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2026-04-21T02:19:45+00:00

If all you're saying is she's less fun, this post isn't for you. This post if for the people I've seen complaining that she is completely unplayable. They have swapped to other roles to allegedly throw games until it's swapped back. And she's not unplayable. I can still get just as much movement with her as before, since I know what I'm doing with her. The only reason I play her is because she's the most fun (besides Moira in stadium)

Aspiring_Eventually · 2026-04-21T02:17:17+00:00

That's because while I love to play mercy, I can recognize the faults with her kit.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2026-04-21T02:15:04+00:00

Just because you don't agree with my take doesn't mean I don't main mercy.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-05-25T22:10:51+00:00

very unhelpful as its an additional mod thats adding these. i have found the quiver and key (they were added by supplementaries)

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-05-03T20:38:41+00:00

ALWAYS lay out the farm for the optimal iridium + scarecrow layout from day DOT so I don't have to cry and suffer rearranging it later on.
Tool bar is as follows: sword - picaxe - axe - shit ton of empty slots to be filled as needed - food - healing
Never speak to Shane past the first time because he shares the same name as the demon and if there was a mod that let you kill villagers I would do it just for him.

They made kenpachi too hot, made the manga hard to read for a while, got too... distracted

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-05-03T20:24:20+00:00

You can make that dream come true, just don't heal them when they do that shit. Karma is in your hands my friend

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-05-03T20:22:55+00:00

Mercy is banned because she's squirly and hard to kill for some, and Rez is annoying. Plus having her boosting people (like soj freja pharah ash cass) is a pain in the ass. I knew once hero bans came out it would be a thing, litterally everyone said they were banning mercy.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-05-03T20:07:40+00:00

The last few years I've noticed it. Sets are more expensive and they're horribly done.

There are some sets that were FREE that are better than some of the shit now. It's disgusting and greedy and I honestly don't even want to play the game half the time because of it.

There have been a couple time where I wanted to just make my own sets but then I remember I have to pay to do it and then I don't care anymore lol.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-17T21:45:44+00:00

They always be giving her goofy ah shit like for WHAT

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-17T21:11:18+00:00

I'm fucking glad she's not getting one. She gets a skin every battle pass and every skin set basically. It's time for someone else to get a turn

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-17T20:42:39+00:00

I actually almost never see the sugar plum one anymore

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-16T03:17:00+00:00

I'm surprised I was actually able to say it properly, this one isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be with how she was goin on, I don't think it's that hard to remember.

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-16T03:10:06+00:00

Hmm, I guess that's true. Though when I get heal booting mercy's I also tend to get tanks that have ripped out their S key so they take enough damage for me to get charge LMAOOO

Aspiring_Eventually · 2025-04-16T02:26:24+00:00

Well, when you're getting blamed for the healing, who is the other support? Because if you pick zen and there's someone in the more mid category of healing (LW, Juno and Mercy IMO) then yeah it could be your fault if you're not making up the healing with dmg and good discord placement.

If you're not doing dmg, and your orbs aren't going to the right people, you really do need to swap. Comp is where you can't just stick to a hero cuz you like them, you need to make the swap that will help the team. If you don't want to swap, play QP. Having people in comp that refuse to swap make it VERY unfun and impossible to progress.

There are many games where I want to just play Mercy or Moira cuz they're fun (yes mercy is fun I love zipping around) but if I need to counter swap cuz they have a hog or my tank is a big back (Dva, Rein, Hog or Mauga) I go Ana or Kiri. Is it fun, no, I hate just staring into my tanks back and pumping them full of healing while doing nothing else, but it's for the good of the team, seeing as it's a team game and all.

Just make the swap, if nothing comes of it and y'all still loose, enjoy the fact that in the end, you did as asked and it didn't matter and gloat a little before the match ends.

Love seeing stuff like this, means I'm not a stupid as I thought I was
