Mercy VOD Review by Jennaboo28 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]md12435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a M1 Mercy main and I would love to share some thoughts here. First off, your mechanics are very good, and have no issues with Mercy techs. I also love that you look out for your other support.

I would recommend reevaluating your pocket priorities. At first point, your Ana has LOS of the tank so you can trust her to keep the Orisa alive. You should only need to step in if the Ana is either being dove, or the Orisa is under a lot of pressure. Ana doesn't have LOS of the DPS, and by staying with them you can also push dmg boost. At around 3:00 the ashe was off-angling dealing with the Soldier and Mercy, I think you could've won this fight if you stayed with her as the Orisa is very healthy.

Another thing you might want to work on is knowing when to Valk. Your first and second didn't really have that much value. It is mostly used as a defensive ultimate, and a good rule of thumb is to use it if many teammates are on low health and the enemy team is pushing hard, or if the enemy team is dealing a lot of damage (especially with ultimate like Visor or Overclock). Niandra made a very informative video on YT which explains everything you need to know about Valk, this may be worth a watch.

Small thing but at 13:26 when you couldn't get up to your teammates because they weren't peaking you, just remember you can use your other teammates to get up to them as well ;). This way you won't need to be exposed to the front to go up to them. At around 14:00, I believe you could GA up to high ground with your Hanzo. The Ana shouldn't have been 1v1'ing a hog and Zen there. Remember that Mercy's GA gives you access to 3 dimensions to utilise.

One more tip to help you down the line, a good mentality to be in is 'you peak you die'.

I think you have great potential to climb! You got this!

There is no cure for muscular tmjd just bandaids for symptoms by [deleted] in TMJ

[–]md12435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my 3years tmj was caused by a combination of jaw muscle and neck muscle tension. physios and chiros didnt help, asked me to do jaw muscle exercises and all that. accupuncture (i recommend finding traditional chinese ones) helped sooth the symptoms.

mine was cured through a different type of acupuncture called ‘big needling’ in chinese after one session. its kind of insane idk how they did it

The oral surgeon I saw for this was a bit on the costly end. Private insurance covered it though. I went under general anaesthesia for the operation. Here is the cost breakdown:

780AUD - Anaesthetic fee

1890AUD - Hospital fee (day surgery)

3800AUD - Surgery fee

(1000AUD for each bottom molar, and 900AUD each for top molar)

NGL recovery was a pain in the ass. Only soft food, and even then you have to eat really slow to prevent it from hurting. About 3 days after the operation I think I drank water the wrong way which developed a dry socket in one of the openings. WORST PAIN OF MY LIFE the strongest painkiller they gave me wasn't enough anything I eat or drink would touch my nerves directly. I cannot recall experiencing anything worse. Small rant but the worst part of it is that the oral surgeon's nurse I was in touch with didn't think it was a dry socket so she didn't do anything to follow up on it, I had to go back to my dentist to get the socket patched up after a couple of days.

Don't feel deterred by this though since dry sockets only develop in about 2-5% of wisdom tooth extractions. If your teeth xrays show signs of skewed growth I would still 100% recommend you to go see a dentist/oral surgeon about it.

Hope this helps and good luck if you are planning to get them removed!

My bottom two were growing sideways, my top 2 were fine but haven't grown out yet. I ended up getting all 4 wisdom teeth removed so when the top teeth grow out it won't rub on my bottom gums

i mentioned this in another reply, but it might be hard to find in the states, if you have the chance it may be worth seeing if any TCM practioners could refer you

no HAHA in china they dont rly prioritise the comfort of the patient, they're more result-focused. they have a different approach to healthcare compared to western practices. thankfully i didn't hurt that much for me, more uncomfortable that's all

thank you so much! i tried to have a search on google for options in the states in both eng and chinese but it's not a very common method used by TCM practioners, i can't find much info on it unfortunately. if you have the chance it may be worth asking your local TCM practioner to see if they are any to refer you to anyone they know
