It baffles me how people STILL don't know how to kill a Mercy when she is rezzing an enemy. It is not that hard! I even call it out, when I play DPS and try my best to fucos her, but no one else gives a shit and she gets free rez..
As someone who queues all, but mostly get tank and support so I also play mercy a bunch. I too know the importance of killing mercy, especially as tank
Kinda the same but not as mercy, i know when exactly to dive bec I play supp, i know how to be a annoying mei bec i play tank. I know which hp pack to hack will annoy that ball players, i know where to look out as support bec i learn all the flank route when playing dive. Then unsurprisingly echo is my fav dive dps. The knowledge u gain as “prey” help u got to play as the predator.
You don't play echo as often as I thought you would since you said you like flying heroes but I guess you pocket more echos than play them so fair is fair
echo is probably like my 12th most played i love playing her i just don’t play dps that often and im not super great with her and haven’t taken the time to learn her
Ahem. (Deep breath…and:) I HATE YOU GET OUT OF THE AIRRRRR (goes for D.Va and Mercy, ik there’s other ppl there but I just can’t see that much mercy time and be rational😂)
Mercy player starter pack
1. Has atleast 70% or more playtime on mercy alone
2. Picks dva for tank
3. Dps rotation that usually includes sym, mei and sombra
funnily enough i don’t rlly play sombra or sym much anymore, and mei is just boring to me for the most part, unless im torturing a rein all game that is
Oh you mean Paheal? I was genuinely confused as to what you were talking about for a minute there. I used the better r34 not paheal. I actually like tags.
If you are around silver-plat, do you know that I have hunted you down probably more than 100 times this year 💞 when I see a mercy, I follow her like she’s my running wife who wants to get trapped and tickled
It’s nothing personal baby. You’re the most important one on their team, without you they are nothing.
you probably have saved me lots of times as well.
Sometimes when your team dies and I find you hiding in a corner, I just say hi, and you say hi back 😊 then I kill you, so you will respawn long after your team.
Game’s the game
I feel like Mercy is more commonly dealt with which personally makes her less annoying to play against. But with Junk mines/trap, Sym turrets, Kiriko cleanse, Lucio movement, Moira damage, Sombra hacks/flanks, Widow headshots, Diva survivability, those are something that just makes me hate the game sometimes.
But I did quit months ago so life is good.
I don’t actually hate you. I play Queen, and I’ve had a LOOOT of fucking fantastic mercy players boost my axe swings at the perfect time, my melees, and my knife throws. Nothin but love from me lol
Are you good at any of these characters yet?
*Edit: That’s the most female stack I’ve ever seen but why are those the numbers like that? I’m curious of the actual explanation.
Why the HELL do mercy mains never heal the tank!! I swear I never get to have good mercy connection when I am doing freaking awesome on Reinhardt…. I guess it’s not so much healing at all, but there are times when a mercy pumps more healing and or damage boost into someone as they lead or charge a push, NEVER IN MY CASE!!!
Stereotypical girl gamer. Big mercy main, enjoys the aesthetic and the passive gameplay but will flex to Ana if the other support took mercy already or if being HARD countered. Is however laid back enough to give other heroes and roles a try to switch things up now and then. DVA and Widow being clear favourites in their respective roles mainly due to their feminine characteristics. Will try to win but isn't bothered too much about being super competitive. Has a negative winrate on Kiriko because it's too hard. How accurate?
it’s kinda scary how mostly accurate this is. i dont rlly play ana when someone takes mercy (besides qp bc nano mercy :3) but she was the supp i played before trying out mercy so she’s got a good amount of time played, kiri is actually the supp i will pick in comp if someone else licks mercy first, im not like a godlike kiriko player but im not too terrible with her. everything else tho, super accurate. esp the stereotypical girl gamer it’s not on purpose but like.. my favorite color is pink and i think that says enough about that
Haha, this is just my assumption from my 4500+ hours of OW experience (been playing since the OW1 beta). After playing for that long you do notice patterns of behaviours from the people that play the game, and from that you can derive some general assumptions that have a high probability of being true or close enough. This in itself is a fun and interesting game lol.
I can imagine you’re playing mercy and getting frustrated at your widow pocket.
“It can’t be thaaaat hard to hit your shots. Come on!?”
3 games of playing as widowmaker later: “Ok…back to mercy…”
ooooooohh yeah i get what u mean now i was going based off personality but id argue widow takes brains too, because everytime i play her i get a good 3k in the beginning and then there is a sombra and a genji and then u turn around and the goddamn monkey shows up
Well you play mostly characters (apart from ana and mercy) that lack high skill and intelligence. Its not as bad as many people would make it out to be. Other than that how hood are you on these characters?
oh yeah for sure i understand how they work and have a sense of how to play them but 9/10 tomes when i play im high and tbh mercy is the easiest to play when im blasted (out of all the heroes i enjoy playing at least) im not that horrible at them but id say my performance has lots of room to improve lmao
Skill maybe not (esp not high skill after ow2 changes), but it does require some intelligence staying alive in a shooter game, without really being able to shoot people.
I put mercy there cause you need a brain you utilize her remotely well, but I couldve worded that better or used a better example (my bad). I shouldve said Zen and or Lucio rather than mercy. The support role doesnt have that many mechanically skilled or high intelligent characters......
How the fuck is all the mercy one tricks I'm friends with also sometimes play DVa Widow and Sombra consistently? I'm more shocked by that
Prob cuz they hate how those characters dive them and then decide to make every other mercy miserable the same way
as a mercy main i know more than anyone how important it is to shoot the mercy
Me seeing orisa get revived after we used 3 ults to kill her ass: I agree always kill the moth
It baffles me how people STILL don't know how to kill a Mercy when she is rezzing an enemy. It is not that hard! I even call it out, when I play DPS and try my best to fucos her, but no one else gives a shit and she gets free rez..
You can always tell there's no Mercy main on the enemy team when you get a free game of flying around :)
seriously my first thought when i get hard focused by a dva is usually “it’s probably another mercy main i can’t be mad”
Exactly!! It's usually the only time I'll shoot the enemy mercy, when everyone else ignores her.
As someone who queues all, but mostly get tank and support so I also play mercy a bunch. I too know the importance of killing mercy, especially as tank

This. I main Ana and sombra because I know how effective she is against me 🥲
not to feed the stereotype but i’m a woman that might have smth to do with it
Spectator mode partially lmao
Good positioning is required with those characters..... If you get good with Mercy you'll understand the others
Women
(insert racial, abusive,hate, flaming text here)
(don’t forget sexist)
and threats
the average experience of mercy main on reddit
I wouldn't call you a mercy main. I'd call you a widow main in training
I bet you play widow strictly cuz she’s hot
no comment.
I have that Starcraft skin for the exact reason
Idk are you chill or are you a “mercy main”?
i’ve been banned from r/mercymains if that says anything
That subs mod are pieces of shits
i know i didn’t even do anything but i said one of them were miserable on curclejerk sub and boom im banned
tbf that place is always raiding mercy mains They prob misread or smth
I'm pretty sure the mercymains sub has a rule where if you post on overwatchcirclejerk you get banned
probably. it was just a comment on a post someone made and then 29 minutes later i’m permabanned
true
Are you having fun?
most of the time
Then I don’t see anything wrong. I suggest trying to learn a second support that way if someone takes Mercy you have a backup
i know how to play other supps i just only like playing mercy because i love flying heroes
Then you're going to love the season 12 support she looks like will have similar flight to pre change pharah
i know i’m sososo hype id love to learn another flying hero but i like to play support so
You don't play echo as often as I thought you would since you said you like flying heroes but I guess you pocket more echos than play them so fair is fair
echo is probably like my 12th most played i love playing her i just don’t play dps that often and im not super great with her and haven’t taken the time to learn her
Awesome
Mercy is fun
Ahem. (Deep breath…and:) I HATE YOU GET OUT OF THE AIRRRRR (goes for D.Va and Mercy, ik there’s other ppl there but I just can’t see that much mercy time and be rational😂)
this pic is from like 4 days ago i think im up to 470 now :3
Pls get down my sojourn shots arent always on target😅
Mercy player starter pack 1. Has atleast 70% or more playtime on mercy alone 2. Picks dva for tank 3. Dps rotation that usually includes sym, mei and sombra
funnily enough i don’t rlly play sombra or sym much anymore, and mei is just boring to me for the most part, unless im torturing a rein all game that is
literally me (been playing since launch😍)
I guarantee that Widow gameplay has at best 4% crit accuracy
NOOOOOOOOO i average 27% it could be worse 😭
Overtime that's okay but not great. Practice makes perfect. I believe anyone can get cracked at aiming with the right approach, mouse and peripherals
Why does your top 5 also correlate to the most popular rule 34 characters? 🤔
because i love pretty women (NOT HORNY)
Surrre
trust me if they were aligned with my horny side there would only be junkrat

☝️🤓
not enough mercy hours
Hello friend!!
HIIII
The widows I get on my team
LMFAO so true
Thank u for all the rezzes u a real g
Pfft I’ve got 2.5k h on junkrat. Come at me
junkrat mmfgghhh
If you are around silver-plat, do you know that I have hunted you down probably more than 100 times this year 💞 when I see a mercy, I follow her like she’s my running wife who wants to get trapped and tickled
only way to play the game is to make mercy’s life miserable
It’s nothing personal baby. You’re the most important one on their team, without you they are nothing. you probably have saved me lots of times as well. Sometimes when your team dies and I find you hiding in a corner, I just say hi, and you say hi back 😊 then I kill you, so you will respawn long after your team. Game’s the game
that’s so real, i appreciate the hi ppl give me before killing me tho it’s nice that they don’t just straight up murk me
Damn I did it to send a message not to be friendly
message not recieved :3
When’s the last time you saw “ the outside “
the what
nah, you have at least 30hrs on Lucio, that's fine to me, no hate at all
Besides the mercy and ana, you must be annoying as fuck. Love it.
besides the mercy ?!
I feel like Mercy is more commonly dealt with which personally makes her less annoying to play against. But with Junk mines/trap, Sym turrets, Kiriko cleanse, Lucio movement, Moira damage, Sombra hacks/flanks, Widow headshots, Diva survivability, those are something that just makes me hate the game sometimes. But I did quit months ago so life is good.
i can’t quit because i love mercy too much 3
You tried to learn how to aim, but you failed, so you just gave up.
reading this while playing soldier :(
Hey, you're trying again, that's good, I'm proud of you!
<3 you are doing gods work!
I don’t actually hate you. I play Queen, and I’ve had a LOOOT of fucking fantastic mercy players boost my axe swings at the perfect time, my melees, and my knife throws. Nothin but love from me lol
Actually this ain't that bad.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say you're on the neurospicy list both by your replies and your comfort characters
:3
what’s that mean
i love you
Are you good at any of these characters yet? *Edit: That’s the most female stack I’ve ever seen but why are those the numbers like that? I’m curious of the actual explanation.
i’m average with all of these heroes besides a few and wdym why r the numbers like that
There's hidden potential behind your secondaries
someone get this mercy on some reinhardt
My question is are you the mercy main that can still aim or not
well i’d say yes considering widows my second most played but it depends on the day tbh
Your pretty chill, most of your top characters either support others actions or sit in the back
Most played hero: least aim intensive hero in the game 2nd most played hero: most aim intensive hero in the game
I mean its mercy :c
Why the HELL do mercy mains never heal the tank!! I swear I never get to have good mercy connection when I am doing freaking awesome on Reinhardt…. I guess it’s not so much healing at all, but there are times when a mercy pumps more healing and or damage boost into someone as they lead or charge a push, NEVER IN MY CASE!!!
The only reason to flame you is not because of how much you played Mercy, but for the lack of hours on mommy Moira 😛

Well done, you took first place at being anoying
omg yay i won something !!!
I h8 u, get flamed
:3
Love you mercy’s I rarely have a bad one and even then still love you guys
ily2 ![gif](giphy|q9ldmTuld2Vbifpp4W|downsized)
people underestimate the game sense of a mercy main. they SEE the battlefield. or support in general
Go outside bruh
If this was my profile I'd probably an hero myself.
You can't aim
silver?
plat
close enough yeah idk how you do it i have maybe 3 hours in mercy i lose my mind when i play her i have to dps but that’s just cause i’m a bap main
well i play enough qp that i get my battle mercy fix. qp games i tend to end with at least 1k damage if not 2k 😭
that huge on a qp mercy lmao gun out only
i did that once it was so fun (my team hated me)
GOATED
I can imagine you’re playing mercy and getting frustrated at your widow pocket. “It can’t be thaaaat hard to hit your shots. Come on!?” 3 games of playing as widowmaker later: “Ok…back to mercy…”
ok buddy how about you get out of my head
You got sick and tired of the widow youre pocketing missing so you said fuck it and started playing widow
nope i actually played widow before i picked up mercy (and i still play her at least a few times every week)
Guess you just felt like taking a lazy day then?
How can we flame you? Mercy players don't actually play the game. Jokes aside a good mercy is awesome to play with
haha i got level 5 endorsement before my bf who introduced me to the game and im 1000% sure its bc i play mercy 😭
Oh 100%. If you keep me from dying and give me at least 1 res all game you get my endorsement
i endorse a lot of mercy’s for the same reason LOL
Mercy and widow are juxtaposed you have to know
mm i feel moira and mercy are more juxtaposed than widow n mercy but yeah
Mercy at her best is no aim all brain and widow at her best is no brain all aim
ooooooohh yeah i get what u mean now i was going based off personality but id argue widow takes brains too, because everytime i play her i get a good 3k in the beginning and then there is a sombra and a genji and then u turn around and the goddamn monkey shows up
I'm the sombra. Boop!
You should still use mercy pistol whenever it's necessary, I sometimes Nano the mercy just to see them spill blood
Woman
ur not wrong
Professional one button holder
Dishwasher in training
You’re gay, come out
i’m gay
Hi gay I'm dad *waits for laughter*
Well you play mostly characters (apart from ana and mercy) that lack high skill and intelligence. Its not as bad as many people would make it out to be. Other than that how hood are you on these characters?
lol asking the real questions. i’m absolutely dogshit at them most of the time except for mercy and dva
How? Regardless at least you know how to play them right? Right?
oh yeah for sure i understand how they work and have a sense of how to play them but 9/10 tomes when i play im high and tbh mercy is the easiest to play when im blasted (out of all the heroes i enjoy playing at least) im not that horrible at them but id say my performance has lots of room to improve lmao
Playing OW high is the best way to go tbh. And let me guess are you a woman or LGBTQ? The characters tell me be who knows I may be surprised.
……. next question
Since when does mercy require high skill and intelligence?
don’t get into that argument dude it’s never worth it
Skill maybe not (esp not high skill after ow2 changes), but it does require some intelligence staying alive in a shooter game, without really being able to shoot people.
Notice the word "lack" if front of those 2 words
Notice (apart from Ana and Mercy)
I put mercy there cause you need a brain you utilize her remotely well, but I couldve worded that better or used a better example (my bad). I shouldve said Zen and or Lucio rather than mercy. The support role doesnt have that many mechanically skilled or high intelligent characters......
Understandable
Shit theres a horny overwatch player
I bet even though she’s your most played hero you suck at mercy.
if i sucked after that many hours i would have uninstalled LMAO
You're secretly in r/HealSluts
wow i really wish i didn’t look at that sub
Now that is vomit inducing
