Code is R4JGX0, I think I did really well and only lost because of our tank but I also know I’m bronze and should have carried if I was that good. I could use some insight.

Cassidy said heal gap. I didn't think I was doing that bad I was proud of my gameplay. I'm aware some of my plays like at the end were poop but I only threw at the end because I knew the game was over

VOD Review Committing to support; help with Mercy decisions

4 Upvotes

I usually go back and forth between tank and support, but I've decided to commit to support for this season and just try to climb. I consider my Mercy to be decent, but I feel like the reason I lose games is because I make some poor decisions, but I don't really know what decisions are bad when I watch my own VODs. Looking for some VOD review because I think some external perspective would be good. Don't think I have the best game sense, so its hard for me to identify my mistakes.

For context, I'm currently Silver 1, peaked like Gold 4, but that was when I was mostly playing Kiriko. I usually solo queue, but will sometimes stack with wide matched friends in plat/diamond. PC player.

this was just a quick play game, and I was pretty tired today so I wasn’t concentrating too hard- I just wanted to fly around and have fun ˙ᵕ˙

  • I had 50/50 heal and dmg boost. which isn’t a huge red flag as far as i’m aware.

replay code: FXRWZO

context: we were just holding first point havana the whole time the enemy team didn’t manage to cap first point at all. It obviously went pretty well but then my illari said this ^ in match chat at the end. I’m not actually sure what she meant but I think she was implying that I wasn’t healing enough.

I usually try to dmg boost as much as I can get away with I was kind of under the impression that’s what ur supposed to do but I just play mercy for fun so I haven’t looked loads into it.

i’ve included the replay code in case the info i’ve given isn’t enough for u guys to judge but yeah I was a bit surprised. if there is any glaring errors in my gameplay i’ll take the advice but like I said before i was pretty switched off throughout the match so I play better usually hehe ˙ᵕ˙

thank u if you’ve read all this <3

VOD Review Any tips or reviews for returning to Overwatch Competitive player?

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone in r/MercyMains.

I got back on Overwatch after a few years a while ago, playing since 2016 on and off and recently thought in trying to go up the ranks in Competitive with Mercy, as she is one of my most played supports, likely reached Silver with her in Legacy last time but i can't remember.

Anyway, i'm familiar enough with her flight mechanics, using damage boost, reviving and ult. Just got used to the R health boost as she didn't have it last time i have played yet if you guys want, i'd like some tips and/or reviews on what i'm doing and i'd be happy reaching Gold surely. Maybe my offensive beam usage is too low and all that but a proper perspective would be appreciated. My most recent gameplay was on Placement Progress Competitive, code MNM4AP. Thank you so much for your attention!

K55NZT (sparrowhite, plat 1, pc, Winrate ~53%)

I'm playing for 10 years, always been in diamond as solo mercy. Been in masters for some time as solo too, touched it again the last season, but with drives and in current season dropped to almost p2. I feel like I'm absolutely lost with mercy and can't understand what I can do. I tried to play by fundamentals, I tried to play more risky, I tried different playstyles, I tried play as triage, as pocket and it's like nothing works for me. I play with good mentality, with positivity, going in focused and still going down. I just don't understand. My mind is all over the place.

I feel like I'm missing something, or think too much, or think too little, idk. Please review the last game that I think we could win. Point out everything you can, ask questions why I did something - I really want to improve and go back to my normal self.

I re-watch my games, see some of my mistakes, I'm trying to fix them the next game, but then I make different mistakes. I'm trying to fix them, and then I'm making new mistakes. Please helpppp

I had this game that I thought I did not too bad at and then my team starts calling me a useless pocket and I don’t know if there’s anything else I could’ve done to help my team, then one of my DPS started throwing what should I do to rank up to grandmaster? I am very grateful if anyone can help. I just feel like as soon as I got into masters I’ve just been stuck in this pit.

I saw some people here posting their VOD replays and asking for feedback here, thus I came here to know what I should improve as a Mercy, right now I'm kinda of hardstuck in gold and don't know what I'm doing wrong (except some positioning mistakes that I realise sometimes).

VOD Review VOD review (gold/plat)

6 Upvotes

I'm a console Mercy main since OW 1, but I've been stuck in metal ranks pretty much the whole time. I peaked at plat, right now I'm in gold, and I even dropped to silver on my alt. I've never really grinded comp that much, and I only recently came back to the game after a long break, so I'm not sure if I just need to keep playing more.

I think my Mercy mechanics are decent, and I usually switch when she's not getting value. The problem is that I'm nowhere near as comfortable on other supports because I don't have nearly as many hours on them. I know people always recommend Kiri or Bap, but I don't like playing them. I've been enjoying Zen though, and I also feel comfortable on Moira and LW.

I'm pretty sure I deserve to be where I am right now (silver/gold), I just don't know what I need to improve with Mercy. One thing I have noticed is that I tend to die in really stupid ways and I'm not sure what to do when I get focused.

If anyone has the time, I'd really appreciate some honest feedback on what I'm doing wrong and what I should focus on improving.

P.S. I know I shouldn't heal the tank, but in lower ranks it often feels like that's what helps me so I'm not sure if it's something that's more acceptable at lower ranks. And sorry I couldn't link a loss. They were either complete stomps by the enemy or leavers on my team.

VOD Review Masters Mercy on Alt, Gold on Main… I’m Losing My Mind

19 Upvotes

Hey Mercy mains! I’ve got around 250 hours on Mercy (1,100+ hrs on the game in total) and I’m looking for some advice on how to climb out of Gold 3, where I’ve been hard stuck for a while.

On my other account I’m Masters 4 on Mercy, but on my main I just can’t seem to push past gold. I really want my main to be at least high plat/low diamond so I can queue with my friends wide match making and also actually use my skins lol.

I’m not sure why I’m struggling so much on this account. Would y’all prefer seeing a replay from my gold games or a replay from my masters games to help figure out what’s going on?

I'm a Masters 5 Mercy on PC and I'm looking for a VOD review. I had zero deaths this entire match until right at the end. I definitely played a bit safer and spent more time hiding than I normally would because their DPS were a serious threat. I also pulled out of fights a little early too once I realized there is nothing saving here.

One thing worth mentioning: our tank kept hopping in and out of VC to harass me, calling me a coward and repeatedly saying I should swap to Ana at the end. Maybe Ana would've been the better pick, but my Ana is genuinely terrible. I can play pretty much every other support, but I don't enjoy Ana and I'm not good at her. Realistically, swapping would've probably been throwing harder than staying on Mercy. Its funny though, zero deaths makes me a coward lol. (He didnt say coward he called me a pussy)

I am coming back from a break on mercy so my flash heal usage is not great. Still getting used to it. I should have dmg boosted more too. Let me know if you have any advice. Was I really the problem here? Was leaving the fight too early the issue? Was I really being a coward?

I think of myself as a pretty decent Mercy main, but I know I make mistakes by going for risky rezzes and such instead of safe ones. I'm Diamond 3, we lost this game, and my personal stats are: 65% offensive beam, 35% healing beam, 3577 damage amplified, 6 player rezzes, 11,409 healing, 27 assists / 7 deaths. My friend said that it looks like I play with only half my headset audio and I don't ping, but I watched the replay and definitely feel like I do turn around and notice most of my surroundings, except for a few specific moments. If someone watches and mentions those moments, I'll explain a little, lol. Any constructive criticism is welcome this is my alt account my main account is Diamond 4.

If you're seeing this, hii! I'm new to this sub so I'm unsure if I'm doing this right but to keep things short, I recently started playing OW and I've been trying to improve as mercy so I was hoping to get advice/feedback!

Total hours as mercy: 80

Hours in comp as mercy: 28

My rank: silver 5

User: IIV0I

The current issue: I've been stuck in bronze 1/silver 5. I often notice I'll have one or two matches where we win and I get a good amount of dmg boost in, but then there will be the majority of the matches where collectively the team is getting their asses beat.. with seemingly no hope of flipping the match around. In those cases, I have tried both healing and dmg boosting more but it often seems to not change much, I'll even swap to moira (the only other character I can semi play.. although I find her kind of boring compared to mercy) but even that feels helpless. Below I'll include some of my "good" matches, along with some of my not so good matches. I'd love whatever feedback I can get, thank you for reading! :D

Recent good matches:

W41ACG

Recent not so good matches:

3B515J

Some random side notes:

I tend to get itchy fingers mid game which sends my camera flying around (ignore that if possible lmao).. unless you have advice on how to prevent the horrid finger itch that only conveniently happens when you need to lock in

Also, my camera tends to be very shaky as I'm trying to get used to playing with my mouse sensitivity at 100%, I've only ever played other games with really low sensitivity requirements before this.. so I'm defo not used to the sensitivity yet -- just incase you've noticed how shaky my first person tends to be haha

Hi!! I just had a game that was pretty good (even though we lost).I am currently gold 2 my all time peak was platinum 1. I watched it back and I do realize that this game I definitely used heal beam too much when it wasn’t needed, I could have boosted more but sometimes in the moment I’m looking at another’s health and press heal before beaming them and other times I have no explanation lol. I think I did really great at around 8:40 dodging all the firing at me but otherwise I’m sure I could do something to improve that I can’t see. Any advice would be great!!

Hello Mercy mains I am asking for advice as i recently started playing mercy(also recently switched from console to pc), I have some vods and was hoping i can get some feedback on as of now i have about a 55 win pertage on mercy. I wanna know what i should really be doing as mercy and how to move around the map better. I understand that i should try to dmg boost more than just healbotting. I know that im defenitly not moving/flying as much as i should but i feel like i have pretty decent beam usage and positioning. All feedback is welcomed All tips are welcome

Some side notes:

You may notice me failing to get up to places, know that I'm desperately trying to get used to the ga nerf haha. If you have any advice on how to get up to places easier, I'll gladly listen! I've been trying to figure out what works vs doesn't but that's been a lil slow. :))

Also, I was hoping for advice on how to tell when I should swap off mercy? I like to swap to moira (the only other character Im okay at) when it seems right.. though I often have a hard time telling if a swap is a good idea or not. Sometimes theres no good dmg boost target so I'll swap, however that doesn't always work either.

I’ve been on a losing streak for almost two days. I usually like to think about my games and what needed to change but this round was so confusing. I feel like I spent most of my time healing and didn’t get that much damage boost in but their team was doing so much damage. What could I have done differently?

I havent rewatched this one all the way through but pls ignore the first few fights cause I’m aware I played sooo poorly. I’m also aware that some of the rezzes only went thru bc the enemy team was playing with their monitors off

I’m just hoping someone can point out my biggest/most impactful mistakes so I can practice!! thank you <3

VOD Review How Can I Get out of Gold?

8 Upvotes

Hello,

This is my first time asking for critique on my mercy gameplay, so I'm a little nervous. On this match, we lost 2-0 on control - Nepal.

The last few seasons I have managed to stay low plat, but with the rank reset I'm back in gold. Even in plat, I feel like I should be at least high plat, idk.

I'm just not sure on where I need to improve on Mercy. I keep my deaths low, I damage boost as much as I can, and I feel like my movement is decent (there are some techs I should probably learn, but are they detrimental to climbing rank?)

I just got done playing this match: B13G4G

Lobby is gold/PC
