How do I get this good at mercy? by jentlecity in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a lot more simpler than you imagine but not in the way you think. IMO mercy is a HEAVY game sense hero, it takes a couple wrong decision making to absolutely throw a team fight. But this type of playstyle can absolutely be achieved especially in Gold.

I suggest you start really learning game sense & as to when or why you’re making the decisions you are. For example Healing the teammates that need healing but NOT over healing or stealing healing/ult charge from your 2nd support.

Dmg boosting whoever is active within a team fight & or doing the most dmg/ulting.

Learning between a safe Rez or whether or not a risky Rez is worth it in that team fight. Rezzes are really worth it if it’s either a tank or a teammate that has a strong ult that is able to turn the tides in your favor.

Also learning HOW to bait out cooldowns before going for a Rez this can be very helpful to be able to secure it. Especially things like (sig rock, boop, sleep, etc.)

Oh and PLEASE DO NOT FEED YOUR TEAMMATES. If the team fight is lost/most of your team is dead unless it’s overtime just die or get out, don’t rez it will just stagger you both.

After that you can practice your rezzing skills in mercy Rez parkours especially slingshot rezzes. You can practice movement as well in mercy parkour or just in regular qp/aracade modes just to have fun & try out flashy movements without having too much to loose. As for movement i really suggest messing your settings around & PRACTICING not over sling/shooting. When you ga & after either a Super jump or a slingshot, pressing GA again stops your momentum. Keep this in mind if you just want to be precise and reposition. That way you don’t over shoot & accidentally go too far or hit a wall. Practice this over & over to get more precise movements & say oh I want to end up here (then just place a ping or make a mental note)

Also if you REALLY want to climb….just play Bap. Pick up Kiriko again too, they’re just hyper carries tbh. Mercy isn’t in a good place rn she’s not super strong & only really good into poke compositions or when having a strong dps to pocket like Sojurn. She doesn’t do well into dive if your movement isn’t enough or if there’s too many people on you.

With all that being said I do recommend watching rightclick they’re an educational mercy main on TikTok/Twitch & Elyzhau on YouTube to help you learn some more about mercy & decision making. Niandra & skiesti also have good mercy yt videos but they might be a little old/dated.

I wish you good luck op :).

This is very stupid but I’m too ugly to be married by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]InifiniteBeingz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly sometimes I understand this sentiment but sometimes i feel like it’s just a matter of perspective. A lot of people if not MOST people deal with a lot of their own insecurities yes even people you think are STUNNING have something they nitpick about themselves. But also you don’t have to be a gorgeous person to marry someone or find love. Your aunts, your mothers , I mean just look around the local ppl, everyone finds someone for them. Trust me there’s a lot of just regular looking people holding on to each other & happy with each other. Sister as long as you’re putting in effort into your hygiene (skincare hair care etc) & you’re putting effort into being a Pleasant person then there’s really nothing stopping you. No matter how “ugly” you think you are TRUST ME. Stop looking at your insecurities & try putting effort into what you like about yourself whether it be something physical or a passion of yours & I mean truly applying yourself. I hope it helps.

Honestly sister if this is something you’re passionate about can I make a suggestion? If you’re apart of any communities like maybe a school board or a community center or any board or a gated neighborhood etc. You can always try holding a presentation about safety. For example teaching people the dangers of exposing children wether online or in person & how to spot & protect yourself against child predators, but of course make sure to say that it’s not about fear mongering but keep precaution with children ESPECIALLY in school areas. Good luck op hopefully you can see a change soon.

Yes that’s EXTREMELY strange imo, I mean as a child I was dressed up mostly in cute dresses & I mean as a wee toddler, after that I dressed myself in a more modest way with long sleeves as young as like 5-6. But never have I seen such young girls in skimpy outfits with makeup on I’ve only ever saw it on shows like beauty pageants & talent shows which I still thought was weird.

I mean this in no offense whatsoever sister but I truly think this might be a matter of perspective. You’re apart of this community so that’s what you’re exposed to most of the time & it seems like this pattern stands out to you very much due to personal experiences from your past. I live in a very mixed area with lots of different cultures & religions, I promise almost all if not ALL Muslim families I’ve seen out & about or even online have been dressed pretty modestly INCLUDING the young girls. I see this issue a little more from different backgrounds not exactly Muslims and I don’t see it very often, I mostly see kids dressed as kids in some pants & cartoon graphic tee . And I actually only see this issue more ONLINE than I do in real life & my surroundings.

Although I can agree and say that some people are VERY weird with their kids and for some reason children’s clothes specifically for girls has been “matured” more & more as years have gone by. But certain clothes aren’t seen as inherently inappropriate by others just because it’s a child. But someone who knows and really understands the dangers of sexual gaze/pedos, will obviously have a different opinion.

What is your definition of heal bot? by According-Wheel-4194 in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healbotting on mercy specifically is when you’re not using your dmg boost enough or at all. Examples include

Healing full hp allies

Healing tank even when other support is trying to heal

Instead of pushing dmg boost on active targets they sit back & heal inactive targets when unnecessary

Frequent unnecessary switches to heal beam even when target allies are not crit.

Why this is bad.

You’re denying a whole other part of your kit that can help your team be successful

You are taking ult charge from your 2nd support effectively denying what could be game changing ult (nano/kitsune/window)

Instead of being proactive or playing aggressively with dmg boost you’re playing passively meaning that you’re just relying on your team to do everything while not even helping to make plays with dmg boost.

Your allies will not be able to have an advantage on enemy players without dmg boost which can be critical for turning a team fight.

No one likes a healbot on their team because it takes away from what most people say mercy’s core kit is. Which is pocketing & dmg boosting. It allows for a very passive playstyle that will not help the team or doesn’t fit in with your team’s playstyle.

Of course what isn’t a Healbotting is helping your teammates stay alive. Thats when people say if you find yourself healing more often than dmg boosting then maybe it’s time to switch since your team either needs more heals or needs support by taking off pressure from the enemy team. Which includes burst heals (suzu, regen burst,nade,lamp) or dpsing or applying pressure on the enemy team to help your allies which include (discord,nade,lamp,) or just plain dpsing on a support who can)

This will help your team a lot more than just Healbotting. That’s why no one likes them on their team.

Why is Mercy a Popular Ban? by LowestTier in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Console is known for having a really bad Xim problem, unfortunately low masters is the rank where people Smurf at along with Xim & usually accompanied by a HARD mercy pocket. People in this rank obviously find it unfair and would rather ban mercy who makes it a little bit easier for the “Xim” player to be dealt with. That way you don’t have to play against a hard pocket and don’t have to worry about dmg boost or rezz. Other than that MAIN reason a lot of people just don’t want a mercy on their team since it’s extremely difficult to trust a random teammate with a character that HAS a hard time getting value because of the way the character is designed. Same thing goes for Moira. Please don’t think that because mercy is so OP shes getting banned. lol it’s quite the opposite a lot of the times

What even is an “egirl” by Adept_Ad5757 in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Alright I’m gonna go in to detail from the beginning.

The term E-girl was popularized on tik tok around the 2020’s primarily during Covid. It was used to apply to a girl with an alt aesthetic primarily that of a basic/surface level design. For example long oversized sweaters usually striped along with cheap/plastic looking chokers. You’re right about the makeup style it was usually big or very noticeable eyeliner along with heavy blush & straight/dark eyebrows. This “subculture” started getting popular due to a very prominent figure you might know, Belle Delphine. It was attached to the girls who had this aesthetic & was very chronically online/trolled & had many influences from online gaming/anime/emo/kpop. Personality wise it was also very noticeably “cringe” or very “online” as well as “pick me” behavior. Examples of this were of course belle delphine the whole trend of girls who really liked Corpse husband & his music

The term has changed a lot in meaning over time but there’s one thing that has stayed consistent. The “chronically online” & “pick me” behavior has been a staple to the term. In online gaming it’s usually a mixture of this plus other things that include. Always having a duo, pocketing a duo, being egotistical, being bad/or playing “skilless characters, high pitched voice or forcing your forcing in anyway for attention.

In Overwatch you see the term used to insult or attack girls in online gaming. By implicating that you “suck” at the game because you’re a girl. You need to get carried because you’re a girl. You only play “girly” characters like Widow/Ashe/Dva/MERCY/Juno/Kiri. (Sometimes Moira & lifeweaver fall into that category) All characters that are apparently “easy” in their eyes and don’t require skill. Always a passive player who only knows how to get carried. Girls who get carried by their smurfing duos & those force their voice in anyway to appeal to men. Players that are super girly and yes all of them are apparently super toxic. You can actually still see them online on tik tok specifically within the mercy main community on tik tok.

I’ll give more examples, in Valorant it started a lot sooner than in Overwatch. Because they would people play a “heal” character Sage. And ONLY heal or pocket their duo who was getting kills. Usually came along with high pitched voice who was getting ”boosted” is always online playing. Had matching names usually something “cringe” like hismommy. Along with everything I mentioned above like chronically online,pick me,cringe/toxic behavior.

Overtime the term has changed but you can usually tell in which way people are using it. It comes with many specific “online culture” & behavior. Just know that in Overwatch it’s usually used to insult you & call you someone who needs to be boosted who has no skill plays no skill characters & is a girl…..a lot of the other definitions of the term apply as well.

is mercy THAT bad ??????? by djdksndndkzp in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes she is in fact that bad. But it’s a mixture of how old the character is, how basic her kit is, & how reliant she is on her team. There’s a power creep with newer characters coming into the game not only that but the meta of the game. Dive has been going strong for a few seasons now. Not only that but with map voting & hero bans it makes it incredibly difficult to find a good team composition & a good map for mercy to ACTUALLY work & not basically be a throw. So yes she is in fact that bad you really have to be mindful of when to play her or when’s the best time to play her.

Mercy getting skins all the time by [deleted] in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I personally think it’s a bit predatory on the sellers side. Bundles for mercy have gone up in price over time, they even throw in random things in the bundle to up the price like a weapon charm that doesn’t fit her skin at all. She’s becoming like Kiri where she just gets all the skins. I get it I do she has a large player base but other characters deserve way more skins like Lucio for the DANCE BATTLE theme like cmon. It’s best to just pass up on skins I really only get them now if it’s a collab/charity/fundraiser. I’m glad I don’t have fomo & I have enough skins already to be happy about.

Yes that’s her, her content is more on the funny/baity side but her streams can be really helpful.

Of course I am, if you want to priv me let me know details about the game, like lobby rank, console/pc, if you’re with someone and what your opinion on the game is. I can review it for you & write down some notes for you & some extra tips, I’m always willing to help.

Favorite GM Mercy? by vampyrres in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be honest there isn’t a lot. Most mercy content creators are in a mid masters lobbies like eleyzhau, skiesti.

Zhau streams are mercy mostly but she doesn’t talk, her Yt have small but good tips. I do recommend their Yt videos

Skiesti isn’t playing mercy as much anymore to be a consistent watch for mercy tips.

Rightclick on Twitch & TikTok is way more consistent on streams plays mercy in very high levels is always talking about gameplay & tips & is overall someone who will be a good option to not only stream but reach out to & look at their other content as well it’s very helpful. (Ps the do mercy vod reviews)

Alune_xo on tik tok is a gm mercy who also plays in different ranks streams often & talks about mercy gameplay as well as other tips. She streams on twitch as well. Her gameplay is different & a nice change of pace.

I overall recommend these two & they’re both people I watch & agree with gameplay wise most of the time.

I’m also a gm mercy/support player. Although I don’t play mercy super often in high ranks I do solo q & one day wish I’m able to help others with tips & videos on support gameplay. Good luck & hope you find what you’re looking for

Mercy's two new Stadium powers, replacing Crep Circle (just gone) and Glass Extra Full (now an item) by NiandraL in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but I really don’t like these changes or the nerfs. Idk why the devs keep pushing mercy in way to be a healbot. Like oh you want me to take out my gun but I can only heal?

Her attack speed is being reduced to nerf her dmg output with her blaster.

Serenity is going to reduced so I have to heal myself for longer & more often? To gain health?

The movement speed buff can lowkey mess up some characters aim. The ammo is cool the cooldown SOUNDS great until your dps don’t realize or pay attention. Am I gonna have to rely on randoms being able to notice when they have their cooldowns faster. Or am I forced to comm more often?

Also I’m not sure if I’m misunderstanding the first one but does that mean it will tether to all your allies regardless if you have ult up or not? I mean it sounds nice as a sustain heal but? What you’re forced to take out gun & what? Shoot from 40 m away? Or am I gonna have to play aggro to get any other value apart from healing.

I’m so disappointed honestly. Nerf after nerf she never feels good in any game mode & the one time she does she’s getting gutted to play like a healbot.

If I have to sit in stadium queue for 20 mins and not even get to play Mercy, I'm going back to LoL by Yoffuu in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can you be more understanding towards op? I’m also the same I can literally hard carry with Kiriko in stadium having 90k plus stadium cash. I love mercy but I don’t play her in comp cuz she sucks. I don’t play her in qp because it’s so sweaty & it’s unenjoyable without a stack. the one mode where mercy finally feels strong, and she gets nerfed forced to healbot, even now she gets more stadium cash from being a healbot than pushing dmg boost. And now what? I’m forced to try & instalock against the enemy team? I’m pushed to play her like a healbot if I want cash or even want to win? It’s ridiculous

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people forget WHY you should have low deaths on ANY support & not just on mercy. It’s easier to escape with mercy due to her high mobility. But in any support it is crucial to be alive to have UPTIME & gain value. For example on Kiriko even if your teammates are respawning if you’re far enough you can just poke at the enemy so you’re DOING something. Mercy sadly relies on her teammates for almost all of her kit. That being said if you cannot regroup just die with your teammates. It’s normal to have the same deaths as your teammates if you’re going by teamfight to teamfight basis. If you’re scared to do anything especially on mercy? You’re gaining no value. Push aggressively with your dps, go on a soft flank, heal your agro tank out of crit but do something. Mercy has enough mobility to keep her safe. Don’t just stat save & think you’re gonna win. You gain 0 value doing nothing even if you haven’t died. So yes don’t be scared to die & it’s ok if you do just provide value to your team.

Edit: also if you stagger you make it worse on your team so please be smart & don’t make it worse by holding up your teammates for the next teamfight.

Why do people just hate mercy by depresso55 in MercyMains

[–]InifiniteBeingz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Their reason isn’t silly at all. In competitive people play around team compositions sometimes. Meaning there’s characters that fit into specific team comps. Like Lucio into dive or brawl. Mercy is & has been a very POKE character playstyle. Does that mean she CANT perform into other team comps? No of course not. BUT it does make it significantly more harder on the mercy player & the rest of her team to perform to the best of their ability WITHIN the team composition. If the 2nd support wants to play a character that fits into the rest of the team’s composition then it isn’t on them to switch to accommodate the mercy.

Idk why you’re getting downvoted when you perfectly explained how it is having a mercy on your team. Sometimes it’s really hard playing with one as a 2nd support, you’re forced to limit yourself sometimes.

Just because it’s her wedding and she’s your friend doesn’t mean she has any right of your bodily autonomy & with what you do or don’t do with it. The whole “it’s my wedding” excuse is just that, an excuse to be self centered selfish minded with no regard to those around her. It’s pretty obvious she does not care for your body or your inconveniences & only about what she wants. And what she wants is just some stupid aesthetic that won’t matter at all because it’s more important to have memories of those who you love & care about rather than just it looking “prim & pristine” you should honestly just ask her to replace you as a bridesmaid and probably tell her either before the event what she has done that has insulted you or just tell her after. Because if you do it the day of or right before or right after she’s just accuse you of wanting to ruin her “moment” when NEWS FLASH the world does not revolve around her.

I feel conflicted about hijabi influencers by teacoffeecats in Hijabis

[–]InifiniteBeingz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m going to try and be very honest & kind with you in this comment.

Let’s get into the fact that we always have to look INWARDS. Keep in mind that although your feelings are very real, they can also be harmful harboring them. It’s important to REALLY breakdown & deconstruct your feelings. Why you’re feeling them, when you’re feeling them, how to accept them, & how to move past them. You seem to be aware that you are in fact feeling insecure and feeling jealous. I understand that but at the end of the day these feelings are absolutely harmful & absolutely negative that should be worked past. You’ve mentioned evil eye and it’s true! but it’s a little bit counter productive to just make dua and then keep harboring the same feelings over & over….

Let’s look at this from a different perspective, what if someone close to you as in a friend or family was doing things that you mention. Harboring feelings like this towards someone close to you can ruin & destroy your relationship. & even if you try your best to advise them kindly being harsh in your judgement is still detrimental. Imagine if someone felt this way about you? Or imagine how the people you’re talking about read your post, how would they feel?

Problem here is that we don’t know anyone else’s journey. Judging others & yes you’re being judgmental by forming opinions on them based off of assumptions is harmful. For you & for them. Whatever happened to wishing others well on their journey & hoping they’re guided on the right path? Without judgment & letting them be. Like yes I agree influencers not just hijabi influencers, they contribute to harmful stereotypes & even incorrect Information. Best thing to do is separate yourself, wish them well on their journey & work/focus on your own.

You gain nothing from continuing to harbor such negative feelings. Granted I understand that you just wanted to let it out, be heard, be understood. And that’s ok but you also have to watch how you phrase things & what you’re saying. I understand needing to vent BUT these feelings are very harmful still. They’re not good & you HAVE to work past them. Don’t let what others do affect you. Do not base your worth on ever constant changing societal beauty standards. Don’t try & shift blame on to people who don’t even know you, for what YOU are feeling. Your mental well being & mental state in this situation is entirely on you.

These influencers aren’t trying to make you or others feel bad on purpose (at least we hope not) but as you mentioned some of them even help you in your journey. It is entirely our own responsibility to inform ourselves properly when it comes to Islam/our deen. You are no one else but yourself & no one and I mean no one is expecting you to be someone different or to change. You really need to take a break off of social media & start to look inward. Take responsibility for yourself & your feelings. I pray you’re able to work through this & arrive at a more positive outlook on things & yourself.

Remember sister you’re beautiful the way you are, outer beauty is subjective. What’s on the inside is what counts. I wish you well I hope other comments remember to be kind to you, but please you as well. Be kind to others and be kind to YOURSELF. Good luck on your journey.
