These are people they balance the game around.
These are people you play with.
I bet they try to shotcall.

I didn't play for weeks. What's the nerf?

This is cute, I hope they got lots of treats

rez doesnt reset on ult and always 30 secs

I want T.Racer to be my friend

>trick or treat
What's the trick?

Doubt it, but seeing how many matching outfits they have they were probably very close, like brothers. morrison probably was the godfather of reyes' kids, wouldn't surprise me

Are you aware of teacup controversy.

In a platformer based around fighting bosses they Unironically are asking for "skip boss" button.

D.va telling it like it is

>ywn know that type of brotherly love

Mercy in current patch WINS games.
If you think that breaks the game for you, I suggest you get gud.

What's with that pic for ants? Waifupost properly.

so are the mercy nerfs really being reverted?

>no flanker buddies to get into trouble with
Why go on? Honestly.

Ok, thanks...

>Get a pick 5 seconds into a match
>They ragequit
>Match is cancelled
WOW, THANKS BLIZZ

Stop it user, people who complain about Mercy, especially in this general, are ranked gold at best and main DPS while failing to focus a single mercy

> hero being a required pick to win games does not mean they are broken

Have you tried playing without a Mercy against a team that has a Mercy? Literally no point

Here comes M. Ommy!

>mercy is op
>ahaha yeah but ur gold xD

Everything related to Mercy should turn you on.

Exactly, she seems to be OP to scrubs because they can't kill her.
A good Genji just leaps through to her, ending her life in two hits. You probably don't believe this since you will never see it happen in the kind of matches you play, but it's true.

Sounds more than fair, what's the problem?

nice projecting

>tfw you realize none of the heroes are fun to play against

>both teams will almost certainly have mercy
>either team will half the time have junkrat
tell me why i should even hit queue at this point

This is my original post he's replying to:

In all seriousness, why are you all so salty that people use the most impactfull heroes in current patch?
If blizz will try to balance ana by giving her 2 nade charges and her shots would pierce shields (which is totally the shit they would do), won't you use her literally every game? Comp is about of farming sr after all. It's not for fun.

The point of it is: you use whatever works best to win. As for balancing games, I'd like to remind you that blizzard is a shit gamedev. It lives only by the hype of past titles. They are basically ubisoft in pretty wraps.

But how would I shitpost then?

Can you think of an actual response to "mercy is op" without mentioning ranks

they dont want fair. problem with mercy players is that they want to have as much impact on the game as a great dps player(emphasis on great) without having any mechanical skill.

Why don't people realize Junkrat is still SHIT

It does.

You must be retarded. When even top streamers and pros think that Mercy is fucking OP and impossible to kill you know there's a problem.

>tfw remember when Ana was "OP"

t. GM

>every overwatch character that is also in hots has their current ult replaced with their alternate hots one

how fucked is the game? for those who don't know, here's a quick rundown:

>zarya pushes people away instead of pulling them in
>lucio reverse amp damages or slows in his sound area
>ana roots herself and does long-range shots that either heal allies or damage enemies
>genji gets brief invulnerability and damages in an x-shaped area
>junkrat boards a rocket and commits suicide to deal massive damage in an area

>tfw remember when skill converted over to power in the game

OP?
Do you have any aim or positional awareness at all?

They reworked her fine. They just need to buff ana and introduce 2 new healer heroes. Instead they are listening to you and nerf her more. And that wouldn't be enough for you, you still can't kill her.

You don't ask for change. You ADAPT. Are you even a man?

About to queue
Lets see if I keep GM

>DPS can't kill Ana
>OP PLS NERF

>DPS can't kill Mercy
>OP PLS NERF

Honestly this game is feeding the casual base way too fucking much, better install an aimbot too

Doomfist is fun, shame you can only play him in skirmish though

>tfw remember when Ana didn't exist
>remembering when hero-stacking was allowed in comp
>remembering when Symmetra was a 100% troll pick that meant your team would be jumping off cliffs from TPs

Because CHALLENGE is not FUN in 2017.

mercy main btw

Mercy is the most casual hero in the game you fucking idiot. Do you even know what appealing to casuals means?

I hope you're seriously not implying that Ana took skill, none of the supports
>hit tanks back point blank
>"WOAH THE PLAYS"

>>zarya pushes people away instead of pulling them in
what is this madness

>better install an aimbot too
Symmetra, Winston, Mei, Junkrat and Reaper already don't need to aim

Maybe if Blizzard put their fingers out of their ass and create a new Support instead of trying to balance the existing ones, that would be something...
I don't play the game, but if I'm correct Paladins has 7 support heroes already, and all of them can heal.

Blizzard's developpers are terrible at balancing. It seems they don't even know their own game(s).
See Lùcio, they nerfed him update after update, even his heal when nobody asked for that, but Lùcio will always be a top pick of his speedboost and his mobility.

About Mercy, of course she's picked all the time, she has a fuckin resurrection skill and is capable of chain heal. The very concept of Mercy makes her important.

Same shit with Genji. You can nerf him again, his kit is so useful he will always have his reserved spot.

Blizzard shouldn't do competitive game. They're shit at it. SHIT.

Great up to high plat at least. Why do you think he is?

So you're implying Mercy is completely fine in her current state?

>70 hours
>just hit gm this season
Found the mercy main.

I'll turn into one if this meta stays the same

Hey now, dont lump Reaper in there..

>le DPS boogeyman
I mostly play tank & support and I'm tired of her shit

>100% pick rate
>they reworked her fine!!
No they didn't.

>roadhog
a man of taste, I see

>Blizzard is going live with Vampire Hunter McCree and Demon >Symmetra skins Oct. 10 skins that turn everyone’s gay up to eleven
>National Coming Out Day is Oct. 11
>Blizzard you ain’t slick

Played Mercy more this season cuz of her new abilities, cuz I usually flex, but even with that, it's bad.

She is a must pick, which is not good for any game, ressing people so often is terribly unfun to play against and just feels broken while playing and she still isn't really fun to play.You just smash that button few times more.

>reaper doesn't require aim
Looks like someone's never played reaper

Masters, Mercy is still broken.

Focusing a Mercy isn't hard (although it's retarded that she can fly around and be a near-invincible healbkt and still Rez the whole team anyways during her new ult). The issue is that not having one puts you at a HUGE disadvantage. Along with that, Mercy is a very low skill/ high reward, hero. Ana being broken wasn't so bad because she had to atleast be landing her shots, balancing nade usage and landing sleep darts to have a game-breaking impact. Mercy literally holds one button and revives anyone that gets picked. The enemy dives you, fine just jump to someone else and start regenerating after 1 second.

Mercy is also boring as fuck. I don't mind requiring an Ana or something every round because she's atleast high ceiling low floor and she's fun. Mercy is the exact opposite

>resurrecting players is now suicide since blizzard took away her invincibility, which they added to her in previous patches

>resurrection has a laughable reach, flankers will usually never get rezzed because of this

>Mercy's new ult lets her fly, which makes her as easy of a target as pharah

She has already been nerfed a lot with her new Ult, there is literally no reason to nerf her even further in this short amount of time

>inb4 her life recovery is insane when she ults

Well then stop trying to kill her when she ulted, zen is invincible too when he ults

Only 2 of the heroes you mention do not require aim.
They instead require good positioning so much more than the others.

How do you support cucks enjoy being fodder for DPS to have fun?

why do you do this to yourselves?

Even tanking is fucking boring unless its roadhog or zarya (and it still sucks)

>and still Rez the whole team anyways during her new ult
She can rez 2, maximum 3 players when someone dies towards the end of her ult. That's not rezzing the whole team. Unlike it was before.

POST SOME JEFFS

or die

I play reaper whenever I feel like getting easy kills

...

...

the DPS heroes are all boring and same-ish
i honestly have a lot more fun playing support in OW than DPS

Women and betas user, They're a mystery. (And the occasional cripple on mercy)

You are tired of her because you play with braindead DPS.
The suggestion is still to get better.

Support mains are the videogame equivalent of cucks. They're too beta to stand up for themselves and get the role they want, so they fill every game and let their teammates have all the fun while they follow them around and watch.

Then they go on reddit and pat themselves on the back for playing the boring, unfun role in a videogame.

>In all seriousness, why are you all so salty that people use the most impactfull heroes in current patch?

Because a hero should not be that impactful, that the entire game revolves around her, while simultaneously being the least skillful hero in the game.

> DPS can't kill Ana because she outplays them with sleep darts/comboing nades and hip fire
> DPS can't kill mercy because she has insane mobility, passive regeneration, and can revive anyone that happens to die nearby to help peel off her.
> DPS can't kill Mercy because she can ult and fly literally anywhere on the map while being nearly invincible and rezzing her team 3 times in a 20 second window

Please stop.
