Actually I'm one of those Winston mains who dedicates his existence to making every Mercys' life a living hell But healers who can survive team fights are, IMO, more important. I can always tell if someone is a support main by their positioning. You know, I used to pity that gorilla when he was out of the meta, and now he's even worse than the Genjis and Tracers! I at least have a slim chance of killing them with my pistol, against Winston there is no option but trying to fly away (and usually he will just jump after). I do like having Winston on my team though - a lot of nice ult charge for me, and the knowledge that the enemy supports are suffering as I so often do! I play a fair bit of support so I know what you mean. I've managed to fend off flankers as Mercy and do it fairly comfortably as Lucio but Winston is a fucking nightmare.

I went 30-5 as Soldier in a loss. Though it was my best game as Soldier in a long time.

Ugh, why won't Blizzard let me bind anything to the touchpad?! It's far more accessible than the d-pad and I want to bind Mercy's gun there! As it is now I have it on R3, with the consequence that I sometimes accidentally swipe between the gun and staff in situations I really don't want to! Edit* Sorry for the rage, I'm trying to prepare my controller for when they add a her new ability, and I can't for the life of me figure out how everything is going to fit - as it is now all my buttons are mapped, so there really isn't room for mapping anything else.

You know, one thing I'm gonna miss after they rework Mercy is punishing lazy teams. Played a qp yesterday (Nepal, village) where most of my team got stuck in a grav on point and the enemy team spent a total of 3 ults to kill them - meanwhile I was standing on the other side of the wall, clearly visible if you had just taken one peek around the corner, waiting and rezzing them all. Like, they had a silver level Tracer who was just standing there watching the carnage who didn't even make an attempt to look for me! I guess according to a lot of people I'm a bad Mercy for "hiding", but then again I healed everyone up until the point they all got in the grav, and then I just rounded the corner and waited. I think the best part was how the Hanzo got PotG for his dragonstrike and then you see me rezz them all.

Few things make me saltier than flankers who don't hunt down Mercy or worse, don't follow up on me getting her to half health as Winston and forcing her into bad positions. I've lost count of just how many times I've watched some dickhead playing Tracer ignore the Mercy at half health on point in order to poke at a full health Roadhog from long range.

I've lost count of just how many times I've watched some dickhead playing Tracer ignore the Mercy at half health on point in order to poke at a full health Roadhog from long range. To be honest, these people did not focus me at all - this was not the only game changing rezz I did. At one point their Soldier ulted from far away, targeted me, I just backed away out of sight and he continued to fire on the rest of my team (who were stuck in a grav). I just rounded the objective and rezzed them all. You would think that when the same situation arose later they would have figured to target the Mercy more, but mostly I could fly around doing my thing unhindered. This is why I roll my eyes at the fact that Mercy is "unfun" for the enemy team - I think you would find where most Mercys are "hiding" if you don't focus on getting PotG. Ah well, let's see how fun people will think it is dying to every Zarya gravition + dragonstrike/dragonblade/self destruct/meteor strike. I'm sure I'll find aspects of Mercy's new ult fun, but I suspect it will need a lot of tweaking the first few months.

While the changes made him a lot better than I thought they would, he's in a really weird spot.
I like new Hog but still wouldn't pick him over Zarya unless I'm on a team running solo support and would always prefer D.Va if I'm diving as Winston.

I just want a new healer damn it! I'm so tired of only playing Mercy, Ana just isn't good enough on console for comp and Lucio and Zen don't provide enough burst healing to work solo. And the current meta with Genjis, Tracers and Winstons in every game makes healing a nightmare unless your team actually makes an effort to defend you. I either want a healer that isn't as susceptible to flankers or at least a support character who can help defend them more efficiently.

Overwatch is a pretty depressing game right now; the only tank you occasionally see is Winston, the healers are also rare and almost always a Mercy, and there is a Genji in every single game. This is true pain for support players, because we need tanks for protection and to gain ult charge. The dps-players usually run away, leaving the one support alone and defenseless, and since there is always a Genji you know every time you hear his ult-line that you will die. Tanks are meant to tank, to protect the objective and the other players... but it seems that is considered "anti-fun", hence the changes to, for example, D.VA. Right now I just want more support characters, preferably one that counters mobility heroes (Symmetra doesn't really do that, both Tracer and Genji can dash/blink away from her and her turrets). I'm just tired of playing support and dying all the time because I can't defend myself against certain heroes and I don't really have anyone on the team to help me.

Which is why I did not like the Mercy rework. It'll just encourage people to DPS.
