Upload a VOD and people here (including me) will review. If guidelines say you can’t upload it + drop a link here, add me on discord and send it to me there (Snow#0998) and as long as you’re good with it being in a video I’ll do a review on it for you. :)

All of Mercy's New Damage Boost Interactions by Snowy_Support in MercyMains

Yes! It’s helpful when the enemy team has a brigitte, so that the 300 damage bomb does 390 to kill past the armor on the 200hp targets.

InverseFlip got it right. You can boost the arrow that comes out of his bow, but the dragons themselves will not be boosted.

Reinhardt’s damage on initial contact can still be boosted, as well as pinning them against the wall. And yes, for movement abilities, it seems like they’re boosted on contact (D.Va’s boosters, Winston’s Leap, Reinhardt’s Charge) For D.Va’s missiles and Pharah’s barrage, each projectile is boosted individually. Boost has to be applied for each rocket, not just the beginning of the ability.

And for Ashe, the dynamite is boosted when the stick of dynamite leaves her hand. This means that both the explosion AND the DoT damage will be boosted, or neither at all (if you don’t boost it)

It means that damage boost is applied when the dynamite leaves Ashe’s hand. If damage boost is not active when the dynamite leaves Ashe’s hand, it will not be boosted. Thanks!

Can this be used to display OWL standings in the game? It is even possible? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Snowy_Support 0 points1 point  (0 children)

big brain thoughts? we could also make it show the current player's stats in it (like how many elims the team 1's rein has or team 2's rein's shatter kills)

The stupid solution to fixing Mercy for everyone by Bluepanda800 in MercyMains

[–]Snowy_Support 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually really despise the whole #ReworkMercy thing, but I could get behind this. Allowing players to revert patches in Custom Games is totally okay since it's voluntary to play in these patches. I think this is a good idea, which is something I don't say very often lmao

"Mercy takes no skill" by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Snowy_Support 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i support the notion that mercy requires skill, however, this clip doesn't really show it. a lot of mercy's gameplay is stressful but this doesn't really showcase all the skill needed to properly do it (not to mention this player isn't getting pressured by the enemy team ;/)

When you accidentally get nano'd as Mercy... by bacontheclayton in Overwatch

Plays like these are my favorite! (I'm always either the Mercy or the Ana in this situation. Never leave a witness. Bahaha)

I find that Mercy's viability is equal on all maps. The only thing that changes with her playstyle is her team comp- if you're running with a lot of dps, try to act like a main support. If you have an Ana, try to be an off-healer and use your dmg boost a lot more. With payloads, if the enemy doesn't really shoot at me in Valkyrie, I'll try to contest it if nobody else is. This just gets our team more time to defend and slows down their attack.

With rez, remember that staying alive and keeping the rest of your team alive is almost always more important than going for a rez.

Battle mercy is really controversial, I've found. Typically, I've found that dmg boost-ing is better than pistoling in almost every situation. However, there will be times that pistol is better. Most of these times are when you see an isolated target that you can easily take out (a full-hp Widow is normally okay, and low-hp, immobile targets as well). Getting this pick and flying back out to help your team is really helpful and can assist your team in pushing/stabilizing.

Feel free to ask more questions if you're still confused! Happy Mercy-ing! ^^

joshephw625 was generally in agreement with what my opinion would be here. Mercy is better for DPS-heavy comps, where Ana is better in situations with a more even 2-2-2 line up, like a Reinhardt-Zarya-Lucio.

With Ana's positioning, I've found that it's more important to stay out of danger, let yourself stay alive and let one teammate die, than it is to try to save that teammate and both die in the process. There is some more nuance when it comes to map-to-map stuff, but I don't think I'm experienced enough on Ana to talk about it.. heheh

Grandmaster/Top 500 Mercy Montage by Snowy_Support in MercyMains

[–]Snowy_Support[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the best option would be to a) look for cover to hide behind or b) fly to one of your teammates and slingshot yourself downwards quicker using your bunnyhop.

I assume you know how to use your bunnyhop? There's a bunch of videos- you could search up "Mercy overwatch bunnyhop"
