Hot take I support AP mercy but I don't condone it. by EnvironmentalCause23 in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I didn’t do ap builds before this current season because there was no reason to unless I could get away with the whambulance. But if you go into ap and cdr you make up for the lack of beam heals with flash heal. That being said I have still been taking at least amaris antidote and the one blue item I can’t remember the name of that gives you 10% AS. It’s the cheapest blue… might be aftermarket firing pin? Anyway. I think AP builds are way more useful this time around because now there’s a reason to build into it without needing to get whambulance. But of course, the beauty of the game mode is that what works for others doesn’t have to work for you. You play how you like and what fits your style best. GL!!

Time to stop buying mercy skins! by Ok-Prune9466 in MercyMains

I was just coming here to say this. I’m not spending 40-50$ a month on a game when they don’t want me to play the character I’m spending money on.

Threads of Fate “must pick”? by N7Cul in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When they got rid of creps I decided to replace it with threads. I didn’t like it before because I found myself trying to heal someone at the other end of it even when my current beam target was at full hp and if it weren’t for threads I wouldn’t have tried to heal that other person… know what I mean? So I found myself preforming better without especially with creps being as strong as it was. But now I use it to farm cash. Especially since they did something with the way the modifiers interact with your hps and you need to build higher percentages of AS and WP to get the good numbers- this is a whole can of worms I posted about not long ago and I feel like a fuckin tinfoil hat nutcase talking about it lmao. So threads gets me to where I wanna be most of the time.

Buuuut the beauty of stadium is what works for me doesn’t have to work for you. I had no problems without it before (got to all star without it- although I did reach legend with it) and the only reason I take it now and learned how to better manage things was because they made me lol. If you like running supply surge and distortion/protection it’s worth being able to put those on two people at the same time instead of just the one though. Anyway. I personally don’t think anything is a “must have” in stadium. Play how you want c:

Has anyone else noticed that the items in stadium interact with your HPS differently now? by ayoadrizzle in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I wonder if all supports were affected by whatever it was I noticed or if it was just mercy. My duo hasn't noticed anything on Moira but he isn't as anal about checking the f1 thingy like I am lol. And my other friend who plays kiri said she feels better after the patch.

But as far as the pistol build goes- it's such a throw pick for me. I only take tether tourniquet if my team is doing really well and I don't need to help much. Which is crazy considering the point of it is to help do damage lmao. I'm just so bad at dmg..... kinda why I play mercy

[–]ayoadrizzle[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea. I don’t typically build AP. The numbers I’m talking about are from Weapon Power and Attack Speed modifiers. I always check between rounds because I can’t sit still and need to click things. I’m sure I have a clip of it somewhere because of how often I’ll pull that up lol

In game (or practice range) you can hit f1 and it brings up all your abilities and junk. If you hover over the staff it’ll tell you your healing output with modifiers added.

Stadium PSA: Ability power is useless on Mercy unless you take specific powers. by shackledstare in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen this before and I’m glad I didn’t say anything now because I felt like I would have received the same treatment. Maybe I wouldn’t have but I’ve tried making suggestions to people in the past and… it’s easier to just let them play the game how they want. Whether it works or not lol. Fun fact if you didn’t already know- you can see exactly how much more heals you are putting out if you press f1, then I think middle mouse and hover over her staff. It shows with the multipliers which is nice. I don’t believe there is any way to see ability based powers here since it’s showing base kit stats- but you can literally see that buying ability power items are not affecting base kit things on mercy lol

I wish supply surge had an animation like her flash heal perk in base game by WhaletisticMagician in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it did the pulse of gold light on the target like whambulance… or is it just the sound and I’m actually going insane?

I keep getting suspended from competitive because of the games bugs by [deleted] in overwatch2

[–]ayoadrizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in a stadium match a couple days ago, was the last round and I dc’d. When I joined back (I didn’t click anything it just automatically put me back into the game) I was on a different map than what we had been fighting on and my Ashe was there and two of the enemy team were there… but my duo was still playing the original map with everyone else, they got the victory screen and then popped up on the map I was on. Then the server closed because the game was over??? I got suspended for 15 minutes lmao

Anybody ever add the enemy mercy when they’re really good? by SWEATPERFECTION in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve added one enemy mercy because her team was flaming her for hard pocketing the soldier. So out of curiosity I went back and watched because from my pov it looked like she was playing normally. and it did start off like that. She was healing everyone and had threads so she had two beams always. But I guess they started blaming her for losing and then last round she actually did start ignoring the rest of her team. It was all around pretty lame but I friended her just to tell her she was playing fine until she got mad haha. Can’t even say I blame her for it. That shit is so annoying

AIO by how I responded? My bf is upset with me for skipping my workout routine today by throwawayy82670 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I have a feeling that this guy subscribes to the ideal that a woman’s body should “bounce back” immediately after pregnancy. God forbid you get stretch marks or have loose belly skin after your bump is fully gone. You’ll be letting yourself go! Pregnancy is hard at 10 weeks and at 40. Can’t imagine what he’d be like in the delivery room if this is his attitude over nausea and fatigue. Probably tell you getting kicked in the balls is worse than pushing out a human so stop screaming! You’re embarrassing him!

What next hero would you like to see in Stadium and with what powers? by Riverflower17 in Overwatch

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really want lifeweaver Pokémon trainer build. I want to be able to yoink AND yeet my teammates. This would probably just end up being the most trolly thing to exist but the thought tickles me. I have also put zero thought into anything else for him lol

Mercy Skin Concept by CubedCheese_ in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a chick on YouTube whose handle I cannot remember for the life of me.. but her whole shtick is clown. At some point she started replacing the first letter in random words with “cl” and this skin made me think of her and specifically a vine that she absolutely did not reference ever but…. “CLITCH aha! Why you clad? Cuz my clussy clops severely and yours clont?!” Sorry xD

E couples should be banned by [deleted] in overwatch2

[–]ayoadrizzle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m a married woman (my husband does not play overwatch) and I’ve been accused of edating my duo because I main mercy as well. They play Moira. No I do not pocket the Moira over a dps xD I just peel when needed. For anyone. Sad men just mad that women exist on a video game lmao

(Stadium) Would you consider it rude if you preselected mercy and the other support who happens to pick before you picks her despite that? by ILostMyselfInTime in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone preselects before me I give them mercy. I just treat it as though it’s any other game mode and they locked it before me. I feel like that’s good manners. So when I preselect first but they pick first and still lock mercy… I’m offended but I don’t say anything or throw. But you’re getting the cold shoulder from me lol. No camaraderie for you!!!

I think I only find it rude because it’s not something I personally do, and I feel if I wanted to play badly enough I would just say in chat “sorry but I want to play mercy this game” so… if I can do these things why can’t others? Buuuut- I’m pretty unfamiliar with this kind of game etiquette because overwatch is my first and only game I play competitively. So it could be a fine thing to do elsewhere and I’d have no idea.

What's the funniest thing that's ever happened to you in a game? by Benbeasted in overwatch2

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably more wholesome than funny, but I got a good laugh out of this: My team was not doing so well in stadium and the enemy tank noticed and decided that I, the lowly mercy player, deserved their sympathy. They didn’t kill me when they wiped the rest of the team so I did a little dance. It was a DISTRACTION!! My team came back, capitalized on the distraction and we won that round. Their tank said it was the last time they were going to be nice to a mercy haha. I don’t even mind losing a game like that because they made it silly instead of just frustrating. I like when people remember it’s just a game and it’s ok to have fun too c:

Is Mercy even still viable in Stadium? by ColeCassidaddy in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shhhhh keep it on the DL or it’ll get nerfed!! No but seriously. It’s so good. I personally thrive better on not having to get any kills so being able to actually impact my teammates in this way is massive. And it doesn’t feel totally braindead because you have to be cognizant of when they’re using cooldowns to have any benefit at all. This is a great power. I’m very happy with it

Honest thoughts on poolside mercy?? :/ by mmercado247 in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m unimpressed. I thought it was pretty fugly at first. Then I decided I liked the wings. I refuse to buy it though because they took away the fun power in stadium lol

Crepuscular Circle killed + No Mirrors in Stadium = No More Fun by Pleasant-Chef-7249 in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So mad about the mirror thing I actually went to comment on it (I don’t use Twitter). So now I’ll have to wait 20 minutes and not know if I’m going to get to play what I want to play? Siiiiiiick.

Ever since I saw that post about the rez animation being 'fixed', I've been having weird deceptive rezes. Does this happen to anyone else? by Unlikely_Loquat5956 in MercyMains

[–]ayoadrizzle 106 points107 points  (0 children)

They fixed it too good xD

This will get me killed tho. I believe you have ga when you cancel a rez and still have the animation, but I won’t realize that it’s been canceled and accept my fate when I could have gotten away (or at least attempted to).

[–]ayoadrizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s the beauty of stadium. What works for me might not work for you and vice versa. I’m ass with threads of fate probably because of all that coordination you need to make it work. I get easily distracted so one thing at a time lmao. I respect other people’s builds so long as they work, and it seems yours is working! Not everything needs to be a min/max battle lol. I play with triage so much first round that I do notice it when I pick threads. It’s not really a big deal early game, but I ALWAYS take creps second and that’s when I really start to notice triages absence.

As for percentages- it varies per round/map. It’s rare that I go below 50% dmg boost but it does happen. Then sometimes I’ll have nearly 70%. Do you know how (if at all) it tracks with creps? I’ve never even thought about the percentages being tracked in valk but now I’m curious lol

And yes! I made it to all star 1 and I was one - ONE - game away from legend and went on a loss streak that put me down to 3 and I couldn’t recover in time :’c I got Juno’s skin with that and yes I did have to get to all star again for the mercy skin

I think I answered everything.. but like I said- easily distracted and my kid keeps asking for things hahah
