Almost as easy as roadhog

Was it fun, though?

The whole games designed not to be fun

>>378598831
When I realized her purpose to not actually participate in healing I dropped her.

>waiting with ult for team wipe
>not using it for when tank gets killed

If my tanks go down, ult gets popped immediately. I don't see why people obsess over getting potg with mercy ults. You're not there for potg, you're there to win.

>>378598831
really

>>378598831
I love this

she's objectively the worst healer in the game. Playing her well means letting people die

hol up senpai. u finna tell me that blizzard is bad at design?

>>378600616

Was her ult charge rate increased lately? It charges up really quickly to the point that you can use it to resurrect a tank and it'll be back up in no time.

>>378602112
>It charges up really quickly
I noticed this too. Freaked me out when we had to take down the enemy tank like 3 times within a minute.

>>378600616
>by the time they come back the DPS have already gotten their shit kicked in

>>378602698

It's not quite retail release broken, but quick nonetheless; I remember getting her ult within 30 seconds in some games.

>>378601398
I play casually but if we are in an intense moment my team is mad if I'm not hiding like a baby

>>378598831
Mercy is a terrible healer. If you play casually it doesn't matter and you can actually, y'know, heal. But if you're in a comp game then your role is fucking hiding and waiting until your ult is charged. Then waiting some more, hiding, until the best moment to pop it.

She's fucking terrible learn to play Ana if you actually want to heal.

This is why I don't take the game seriously.

>They think you play Mercy by healing people from behind corners and waiting to rez the whole team

Gotta love it when somebody claims something sucks and then they tell you how they're doing it completely wrong.

Do you faggots even damage boost or help shoot enemies while dps are reloading?

>>378603910
Gives away your position and then a competent team will zone the fuck in on you and kill you. Mercy is squishy and meant to wait until her ult is charged, it's her only use. The other healer actually heals and actively aids the team, Mercy sits there like a boring bitch and if you play her any other way everyone spergs out.

>>378603910
DPS reload faster than she can pull out her gun, and damage-boosting is obviously implied in the healing/babysitting part.
You're just retarded.

>Keep track of what ults the enemy have used

Is it that hard to understand? Or is this just another one of those "I got my shit pushed in while playing ranked and decided to cry on /v/ about it" threads?

>>378601398
The point is to have the bigger ultimate economy. Make the enemy team blow their ults and rez team with their ults up

So since you got out early for Summer, do you have to go back early too?

Nobody legally posting here plays Overwatch.

>need to have line-of-sight

There, I fixed it Mercy's ult.

>>378604159
>DPS reload faster than she can pull out her gun
>I literally haven't even played Overwatch

>>378603729
Yeah that's where you just go Zen and if they say something like "We really need a Mercy" then you just fire back with the "Then you really should go Mercy".

90% chance to end the discussion there.

>>378601398
All they have to do is one of two things (or both).
>Combine Healing and Damage Boost into one beam.
That way, she should still be doing her job even when she has full Ult and nobody is hurt.
>Beam in one hand, pistol in the other
Just fucking do it, every other support can fight for themselves and still aid allies simultaneously.

>>378604208

If Quick Play and Arcade are making you mad enough to made rage threads about how terrible you are on /v/, then it's time to take a break OP.

>>378606085
>Criticizing people who are fucking awful at the game
>"mad"
>"raging"

You must get a lot of people frequently telling you how to play if you're at a point where you consider all critique to be enraged.

I know this is an unpopular opinion but Overwatch would be 100x better without any fucking ultimates. Fuck all of you.

>>378606174
Op isn't a critique, it's an accurate observation. The fact that it offends you to the point that assuming those who don't play the game your way are awful speaks for itself.

>You must get a lot of people frequently telling you how to play
Funnily enough, I do not. I guess there's the difference between us.

>>378606371
>unpopular

Read: bad.

>>378606371
>Overwatch would be 100x better without any fucking ultimates
Nah. On KotH? Maybe. But most, if not, ALL other gamemodes/maps favour defenders over attackers. If ults weren't a thing then those much needed tide-turning pushes just wouldn't happen.

>>378606409

I wasn't even talking about the OP, didn't know you were him.

So you're double bad then.
