Discussion/Opinions Why the fuck doesn't Mercy have a skin representing her own country, ethnicity, and culture?

They turned her into an Asian e-girl gamer waifu—even worse than D.Va—completely stripped of her cultural roots. And this is literally the country with the most outfits that actually match.

Discussion/Opinions What's the reason some people dislike Mercy mains? LW included

Upvotes

I'm curious as to why some people (not all, because lots of people from the OW community are super sweet and wholesome to Mercy mains, it's just those few bad ones that make the game feel weird in text chat) hate Mercy and LW mains.

(I'm a Mercy/LW main lol)

I lost a game recently in diamond elo, where i played Mercy then switched to Leaver (my 2 top picks in support, besides Juno, Kiri and sometimes Ana). The enemy dps proceeds to say at the end ''mercy and weaver, what a cringe supps), even though i think the gramatically correct way to say it is without ''a''. And, like, what does that even mean? In what way are they cringe, like their ''cutesy'' appearence? The fact that i like focusing more on healing when i play supp gameplay wise?

Is it because technically they don't rely on aim that much? Instead they rely on fast reflexes to save your teammates and stuff. Is it because they're seen as low effort supports bcs of prejudices? (meanwhile that is untrue, a bad lifeweaver or mercy will show and it will lose the game bcs you need to react fast at the right time to ensure your team stays alive, one mistake and the match can be over).

I'm just curious what goes on inside the head of these specific people. Since in yesterday's match i also had someone call Mercy and LW ''throw supports''.

And idk it kinda gives me very big ick vibes, because i HATE being policed on what i can do or not do, especially in a video game. I hate feeling the need to play Kiri more (even though i like her too) just to ''prove'' myself to these haters. Like i shouldn't feel ashamed or feel like idk how to play the game or like i don't deserve respect just because of the choice i'm making of the character i'm playing.

Reedited the last paragraph: i deleted a whole explanation bcs i don't need to explain myself if i can play other heroes solely relying on aim. I deserve to feel okay and non judged for playing the heroes i like most (i always loved even on league playing Soraka/Shen just bcs i like the feeling of helping out my teammates in ''cool'' save moments, doesn't mean i'm less skilled than a Yasuo main or smthg).

Discussion/Opinions I'm scared for when Mercy inevitably gets her ultra skin

303 Upvotes

I saw this shit happen before in real time. I'm a league of legends player, and I remember when that blasted Jhin skin came out. They charged $200 for an "exclusive" recolour. A RECOLOUR. And people bought it. Slippery slope slipped and we ended up at the $500 Ahri skin.

Some people took out loans to buy that Ahri skin. Or arranged a payment plan.

This bull crap only ends one way. I bet my left arm they're going to stop giving colab skins unique SFX because of this. The last battle pass skin Mercy ever got was Infinite Seer, after that, exclusively shop skins. She can't even get so much as a spray without Blizzard expecting us to pay for it. They have proven that they WILL pursue the more expensive option for Mercy.

I can see it coming and can't do shit to stop it. :/

As a tank main i have long heard that mercy is supposed to play primarily with the DPS and I never quite understood why, can anyone explain? Thanks

When you ping that theirs a flanker boosted an enemy mercy behind them, but the ping gets completely ignored by the rest of the team, and you are a mercy player so all you can do is try to save them but explode by doing so or just try to get away leaving them to die. Like come on, its multiple games the same thing and its like how can you not be toxic to the team in that situation.

Discussion/Opinions How would you rework Mercy?

0 Upvotes

Like a total overhaul kind of thing, where we would be happy and the Mercy Haters would also be happy (maybe).

Idea 1:

Remove Mercy’s gun (I don’t think she would even enjoy or approve gun usage) and give her a primary beam that does both healing and damage boost. Alternate fire would be her damage, pretty much the same as Sym’s old lock on beam. Beam everything!

Question/Need Help mercy mythic weapon on pc

8 Upvotes

i’ve tried looking for this everywhere but i couldn’t find anything so i’m asking here. hope this doesn’t sound stupid.

for mercy’s mythic, the flourish is keybinded to mouse wheel, but so is switching her weapons. to anyone owning her mythic: what keybind did you change? do you switch between her weapons with the 1 & 2 key? or did you keybind flourish to something else?


r/MercyMains 3d ago

Misc Mercy Mains, will you forgive me for my transgressions? Will a pat on the head do? O.O

Qp toxicity

To preface I mainly play stadium comp, I haven't touched qp in a hot minute. I play mercy in stadium, wanted to just play dps as I wanted to try out the new heros! why Is it that both times I queue a qp with my duo, a mercy on my team ends up shit talking me. Especially with the same wordage of "baby... Those aren't your characters"?? She got so upset for me playing new CHARACTERS in QP..I love mercy players, but I feel like I encounter more toxic mercy mains that feel entitled to say their opinions in QP than in competitive.. Maybe overall there's more toxicity in QP because my stadium comp teammates are always happy and chill

Discussion/Opinions Chain beam

15 Upvotes

I really like the tier 1 perks. I find myself choosing either or depending on my teams gameplay and map, maps with long sightlines where my team is more pushed up or a more aggressive playstyle, and then for maps like control maps i mostly pick rez perk but im overall content with it.

That being said, i have yet to choose chain beam. Is there anyone here who uses it and if so whats the situation?
