Got the Witch Mercy skin on my 4th lootbox....wooo! And as for the brawl, if your'e not "good" at any of them, it's excellent practice. The robot's aren't whipping around like Genji or flying like Pharah, they're just coming at you. Congrats! I haven't played Overwatch for about 4 months. Got back into the game today and I saw these skins and I found them pretty exciting, especially Mercy's one. She is my favorite character. But when I saw the price.... 3k gold?! Damn. I hope I might luck out and get it from a loot box, though chances are slim. Or else I hope to save up 3k until Halloween I don't think they will only be on sale until Halloween. That's just when you will not be able to get them in a Halloween Loot Box since those will go away until next year. I think the items will be on sale forever. Unless Blizzard said something to counter this.

I don't know whether they are or not, but I imagine the Halloween ones will work the same way.

All the Halloween stuff is up for sale for 3x the normal cost as a response to the heavy criticism the summer games got. Dunno if they'll be on sale after the event but at least for a few weeks people have a way to bypass the RNG. Wouldn't expect them to be available after unless Blizz suddenly has completely abandoned the stance they had about event skins having some nuance of rareness about them

Those ones aren't purchasable by credits, at least not yet. That caused a negative response from the fandom which is why now the Halloween ones can be bought with credits as well as from Loot Boxes.

Since Blizz got a thing about wanting to keep event stuff "rare" I'd guess that things will be unavailable once the event is over unless Blizz really, really backpedaled on their stance during the Summer event

I'm trying eventually to switch to main Mercy, there is something very satisfying with making a team unbreakable. Sadly, I still struggle to deal with the fact that now there is a massive target sign on my head as all the flankers are actively trying to kill me. Any advice how to position well as a Mercy would be appreciated. :/

Sadly, I still struggle to deal with the fact that now there is a massive target sign on my head as all the flankers are actively trying to kill me. Any advice how to position well as a Mercy would be appreciated. :/ Defense Mercy is easier for me, since there are things to hide behind. I try to stick in the back, and keep everyone topped off, especially the tanks, since they keep you alive the longest. Only go for Junkrats and Pharahs that go off on their own and whine "I need healing!" constantly when everyone else is topped off. Attack Mercy is a bit trickier, she's good on Temple of Anubis and Hanamura, but is more of a burden on Volskaya. Payload map attack is good up until the payload starts moving, then it seems like the target on your head is HUGE. So Mercy at your own risk. I wouldn't say I'm a Mercy "main," I'm a nobody main, but I have 18 hours of widowmaker and 16 hours of Mercy after that. My biggest trick with Mercy is to hide when I hear "Fire in the hole," "Nerf this," or "Justice rains from above." That way I can get 2-5 revives and really give our team an advantage. One last trick as Mercy. Don't forget you have a pistol! If a flanker is coming up behind you, and they're focusing on the Bastion you're powering before they switch to you, take out that pistol. You'll get more kills than you think!

You'll get more kills than you think! All solid advice, so far as this Reaper/Zarya main can tell Another thing: if you have a good Reaper or even better a good McCree on your team, pocket them. Mercy becomes a far less appealing target if enemies have to go through Reaper or McCree to get her.

ApocAlypsE I play Mercy a lot, and I think the things I usually do (aside from what has already been mentioned): 1. If you have a Pharah on your team, try to just keep an eye out for where she is - she provides a good escape route if one of the flankers (like Tracer) are trying to get to you. 2. I tend to give heals to tanks first and foremost, but I will also prioritize characters that can not self-heal - so if I see a Mei and McCree both in need of healing I will go to McCree first (also, McCree is your best friend against enemy Tracers and Genjis). 3. Keep mobile! This is obviously true for all characters, but a Mercy that is not constantly flying to and fro is easy prey for flankers. 4. If you are not talking or chatting with your teammates you can use your pistol to shoot in the general direction of enemies you see trying to flank - you may not hit them, but it will alert your teammates. 5. If Pharah is ulting I will usually fly and heal her as she is a sitting duck and can be easily killed off, so your heal can give her ult a longer lifespan. I'm not a particularly skilled player though, so feel free to disagree with me!

I haven't been playing much, so the only notable thing i've gotten in a halloween loot box was the witch mercy player icon. Oh and nabbed two special chievos from the halloween brawl.

Speaking of Mercy
Mercy is getting a unique voice line added in for the Witch costume. "My servants, never die!" Awesome

I was a bit disappointed when her line was just the "Heroes never die" especially since in Junkenstein Revenge they had her say "My servants never die". I'm glad they are patching that in.

Finally got around to doing my placement matches for competitive.
With pure solo queues I'm at 2217 gold right now. I have no idea if that's actually any good or not.

Most players end up around Gold or Platinum, so it's about average.
I'd say your rank is about what one could expect from solo queue.

Or else I hope to save up 3k until Halloween Picked up OW not so long ago and got this skin around lvl7. Talk about slim chances. The irony is that I like Valkyrie skin more. Though as former TF player I find playing as healer here to be quite annoying. In TF you had your whole team to cover you, in OW all your teammates have eyesight of a hunting tiger, they can shoot some d.va on other side of the map while Reaper rapes you right behind their back.

Frankly this D.Va announcer voice is ANNOYING, oh well... Last days after playing Lucio and Mercy, I give up after few games because my team-mates don't select a tank and they are getting spread out and trickling into enemy lines to get slaughtered... So I just say "screw this", go Pharah and lob rockets at everyone. It actually works better for me, even against a team with 2 Bastions and a Torbjorn...
