Well, if that’s your only counterargument, you should just stop because it’s clear you run out of them. I’m not complaining about her old ult, I’m complaining about her current design, which is the worst piece of garbage she has ever been. She must be reworked for good, exactly as it happened in the past. E rez doesn’t belong to Mercy, and the same goes for valk, she doesn’t need an ez mode pro simulator for dummies.

And yes, current Mercy is focused on dps and rez because her healing is trash. That means that the best way to heal some characters now is just letting them to die next to a corner and rez them. That never happened before.

Andough: Andough: I highly doubt I played her wrong after 60 hours in on her with her old kit. There was significantly less decision making than her current version, because her entire usefulness is not tied to mass resurrect.

Well, let’s use other words then, let’s try more neutral. Back when Mercy had mass rez, you could play her in two different ways. One was passive, aka pocketing, hiding, not engaging at all, etcetera. An incredibly easy way to play her, but truely boring and unskilled. On the other hand you could play her actively and agressive, and that was quite the opposite. Frenzy playstyle, never stopping, all the time engaging with your team and thinking about how to use your rez while using your entire kit at its full potential. Which one was easier? First one, of course.

That being said, current Mercy has no decision making at all. If you played her engaging and actively before (and you said that you didn’t) there is nothing new to learn, indeed you are now playing passively, taking no risks at all, hiding like a coward, stopping doing your job each 30 sec, disengaging with valk all the time unless chasing Pharah/Widow. Current Mercy’s niche is indeed pocketing/chasing Pharah/Widow, and that’s it. There is no skill involved in that, specially if you played her whole kit at its full potential before instead of only caring of her mass rez.

Summing up, you probably knew how to play her, but if you wanted to master her, she was way more complex than just using mass rez sometimes and pocketing from the far. That was more or less her skill floor, and that’s how she must be played now. That’s something that people who were going deeper in her kit are missing. There are not things to think about, everything is hide and single rez or press the spectator ez mode… or just ignore it, since it does nothing relevant tbh.
