This Mercy has been HARD STUCK for 6 YEARS! Here's why... | Spectating Overwatch 2

[@shimonz8110]

I like playing mercy a lot, but the thing that annoyed me the most in this video is the mercy just refusing to move forward. They had a widow for a majority of the rounds so avoiding sightlines is a good idea, but there were multiple times where the mercy didn't want to use alternative cover or moving with a DPS (like the soldier in the beginning). Being safe is good but being too safe is crippling.

[@Real_MisterSir]

Yea this Mercy was playing with the hope of achieving 100% safety at all times - and ideally they'd be playing from within the spawn walls if possible. They really need to switch that mindset and start thinking "I want to play in the enemy spawn, not my own spawn" metaphorically at least. They were playing as if there were 6 enemy gm widows hunting them at all times, stressed out of their own mind. They just need to chill, and realize opponents are fucking silver, they're gonna fold sideways if there is just one pocketed dps on a crossfire angle.

[@josephdavis3472]

Most low rank mercies mess this up in BOTH directions, they don't move up with the team, and yet they'll fly out in the open while damage boosting a DPS, when they _could have_ just stood behind a corner. Also this mercy A-D strafes a lot behind cover for no reason, and crouches down too much, (which basically makes the hitbox one giant easy-to-hit blob

[@fallenprometheus]

I saw them try to guardian angel to high ground a couple of times in mid and late game only for the dps to walk away out LoS. But fuck the mercy for not following.

[@Teflora]

I feel like this Mercy got overwhelmed really quickly. As a support most often you have the freedom to position yourself in places where you can "oversee" the teamfight. The movement is good but didn't always seem purposeful, there should be reason to GA not just because the button is available. And then ofc what was said, give the dps more priority and trust your other support more to care for the tank.

[@Alex_Aramayo]

U can't trust ur main healer & positioning of ur teammates most of the time in metal ranks anyways, especially wen ur w a team that doesn't use cover

[@tinytina6056]

​​​@@Alex_Aramayo Stubborness would not help you to rank up, so learn to trust your other support. As a Mercy main, I'd be so pissed if I play as Bap/Ana/Kiri if a mercy will pocket heal the tank and not even trust me. That will end up killing their own DPS and baits them. This will result of major loss of potential major ult advantage, which DPS really need. You will not get so much value if you don't trust your other support. Also, trusting your other support doesn't mean they will have to do their job to survive on their own. You also need to look after them and help them if they needed help.

[@eachfilly825]

That is true. getting overwhelmed is a problem. You have to learn to reset your self in those types of situation because you can't rely on your teammates to do the same.

[@Real_MisterSir]

@@Alex_Aramayo Supporting the dps ideally leads to the dps putting more pressure on the enemy team, which in turn minimizes the pressure going into your tank - thus you're contributing to your tank's survival even if you're not pocketing them. Doesn't even have to be about trusting or not trusting your fellow support. It's simply about realizing where your effort yields the highest reward potential, and having a plan B in mind should things not go as you desired.

[@purplepandagirl3360]

As a gm1 mercy main, the main issue this person has is definitely their positioning and target priority. on many occasions they just abandoned their dps to follow their tank. like i promise u the tank has 500 hp and is going to be fine 😭 so more than anything she would get so much more value going with soldier to pressure widow and the other supports without over extending. there’s also so much unnecessary movements that just overwhelm them so i feel like they just need to calm down a bit lol

[@Vs3Walker]

I am low gm with ana / bap / lifeweaver and Lucio. I don't really have a high understanding og Mercy, but a lot of the slingshots were nice, but it felt like a lot of it was unnecessary and just to do something, am I wrong in this assumption? And the strafing, especially corner strafing at 18:03 seemed pointless since shes practically standing in place, as long as they shoot at the corner, her strafes aren't big enough to give the movement any value. A lot of the strafes are too small and its a easy pattern to read as its no randomness to it, no crouches, though I would assume as Mercy you would take advantage of team mates positioning and the slingshot techs, etc. for movement and improve your positioning? This also makes me think game sense isn't where it could be, as depending on their team, where your team mates are and what map control you have, you could lower your movement depending on it. Would you agree to this or? Again, I don't have much idea on Mercy as I haven't played her since the hide and seek meta, so would be cool to hear your thoughts ^^

[@purplepandagirl3360]

⁠​⁠​⁠i feel they definitely had the right idea to strafe because they have a widow and they were anxious about being snipped. i also think they could’ve taken advantage of the high ground 18:20 as it is out of the enemy’s los and definitely makes them safer if the enemy team pushed. i also think their movement was pretty good for a silver (i think) but i still think they can just chill out a bit and utilize the objects around them as cover instead of crouching up and down in the open to not get hit. i agree with the part of map control. when their team is holding the enemy’s spawn door they should adjust their positing to help their dps more and just stay out of the enemy los if they push and just chill out in the movement a bit lol. the movement is def predictable and i feel like they lack a bit of map awareness like there were so many unusual spots that could’ve been used to get more value but ig that just come with time and feeling out the maps more. imo mercy is best heard and not seen because a good and effective mercy always dies last 👍💪

[@nxtsuh]

To all mercy mains, please go with your DPS if they're taking a 1v1 or flanking or making huge plays in the backline. Stop pocketing your other healer, stop pocketing your tank, trust your other healer.

[@poopoo-um3nw]

is going with them while flanking really a good idea? doesn't it put you too much out of position? i thought it was better to just stay with your team but position yourself in a way you can help flankers when theyre critical since i think it puts both you and them at risk by following. this might just be situational though, but generally, flanks never work out for me when im playing mercy.

[@nxtsuh]

​@@poopoo-um3nw Yeah it's situational. For example, if your dps is pushing a flank when your team in the frontlines is struggling on heals or is being ulted by let's say a ram, you should stay with your team and help them survive the fight. If your ana or other support is topping off your team and they're full heals, and your dps decides to fly to the backlines to flank; generally, you should help support them win the 1v1's in the backline. I noticed a lot of mercys in bronze-low diamond be too afraid to stray away from their team, they're just heal botting or boosting their other dps or tank who is near them. Then your team ends up losing the fight and it keeps repeating, you can't push the choke they're holding. It's 100% on you if your dps notices this and tries to take a higher ground or go in the backlines and you're not supporting them. YOU staying with your tank and team just to die over and over again is throwing imo. You could be playing with your dps, maybe they get a pick, maybe they don't, but you keep trying. If you're not a 1 trick mercy main, maybe switch supports, see what went wrong with their push. Are they always 1 and your dps dies before he gets a pick? Then go kiriko, go moira, go ana; nade them, throw 1 kunai, throw a dmg orb. That 1 pick is huge for the team fight. If you're a mercy, fly with them, pocket them, if they can't get a pick, try again. Not everything works the first time. Even in my experience playing as a dps, low rank mercys tend to not pocket you if you can't get a pick the first time. Understandable. But I notice even if you have the most kills and dmg, they wouldn't switch to pocketing you, they stay with the team. Sure, you wanna stay safe with your team, but you're NOT PROVIDING ANY VALUE. Trust your other support, trust your dps that's popping off. Even trust the dps that isn't doing well. Maybe they're dying too much, then keep an eye on them. This is what I learned reaching masters on mercy.

[@SchweetCookie]

I'm not exactly agreeing or disagreeing with this advice. It's best to look at the situation. Of course you should never pocket your tank, but if your other support is getting dove, you should keep them alive. As Mercy, your other support should be doing a lot of the heals, so without them there, your purpose as Mercy is scuffed (dmg boost being main util). Having the other support alive makes it easier on you. Also, some flanks are not good ones. Some may put you out of position, and may get you killed. It's just about feeling the situation and knowing where your enemies are and teammates are, and trusting your movement to keep you alive. At least imo.

[@squishier8]

I love roller coasters but I still got motion sick from this. I feel like the extra movement is just making the game harder for no reason. Why stand behind a bus 100% safe and wiggle around like a crackhead? Try standing still, I think it will help you see what's going on around you and maybe make better decisions. Good movement overall though. Another tip that's helped me is just asking myself questions: why did I die there? Who needs my resources the most? What's my purpose in life? Why did Dad leave? etc. I respect the grind.

I don't agree with standing still, but I do think this Mercy misuses GA movement at times (and underuses at other times)

[@KuroiHoshiV]

Standing still should never be an option in a game where the enemy has snipers and an invisible hero.

[@squishier8]

Fair point I could've said it better. "Standing still" as general advice IS the opposite of what you should do in OW. I guess what I was trying to say is THIS player specifically is playing franticly even when they're safe. So less is more. Calm down. BREATHE. I would challenge you to watch Aspen or any GM mercy player of your choosing and note the times they stand still/crouch behind cover when they're safe and in a good position. There wasn't a sombra in this game, but yeah if she's around I would definitely recommend MORE crackhead energy@@KuroiHoshiV

[@Real_MisterSir]

@@karamei If I were to coach them, I absolutely would want to force them to stand still. Not because it's good to do, but rather because this Mercy player needs to learn how to relax and gain an overview of what's going on. Their frantic movement, always weaving and dodging, losing track of their surroundings because of it, trying to be 100% safe at all times.. It's so detrimental and they need a hard reset in their system because right now their core gameplay is holding them back from learning a new approach. Their old way needs to be burned out systematically, and the best way is to force them to play "suboptimal" to break down these habits entirely, and grow new and better habits in their place. They need to learn how to gain value first by standing still, because standing still means they will die if their position is bad, and this means they HAVE to focus on good positions first, before they default to the duck-weave-dive mindset they have rn. Also it would help them greatly to realize how little danger they're actually in, by standing still in relatively safe positions they will see how much freedom there is to move around, to pick different positions, to be more creative and daring with their targeting priority etc. Forcing them to stand still and relax, will teach them they have 10x more freedom and safety than what they currently think is available. And to be clear, by "stand still" I don't mean in the literal sense. I mean in simple terms like moving around in a relaxed manner, and not relying on crouch+ad spam+ga everywhere to feel safe.

[@chankupersonal]

I’m definitely going to be watching this video whenever I need a reminder tbh- I get stuck in habits very easily, with the crouch spamming and tending to pocket the tank over my dps. I’ll be sure to send in a vod worth reviewing one day >:) but the advice I got from this video was really helpful and i’m happy this vod got chosen ^^

[@axolotlgrrrr]

@@eachfilly825yesss support your other support🙌 if your support is alive you can focus on dmg boosting the dps

[@silentdc404]

mercy has 2 main strengths. her movement and damage boost. her rez is valuable but the higher you get the less opportunities you have to use it. People hate mercy (myself included most of the time) because if the mercy is good it will most likely require more than 1 person often times most of the team to focus her to actually kill her and as long as she is alive the other support or whoever need it has guaranteed heals. with her movement she can help dps that off angle and if she needs to dip out she is 1 button away from the rest of her team. (higher ranks it does get more risky and you have to still do it but learn to play it a bit differently but that isn't really too applicable you at the moment.) I liked that you were boosting a lot but think about who benefits the most from your boost. if you have a soldier who is not just feeding they will probably benefit more than a sig and more than a hanzo who doesn't really need the boost since he is more of a 1 shot sniper character. It can be situation though too like say your zarya gets to full charge and uses grav. she will probably benefit more than any other teammate at that moment. one other thing, sometimes it is better to not heal someone even if they are at risk of dying if boosting someone is more valuable. example if you sig is half or lower but your soldier ults it is probably more valuable to boost the visor since that will usually wipe a team or at least most of thier team then a boosted soldier can clean up who ever is left. even if the sig dies it will still probably be more valuable

[@DatMageDoe]

I do not like the res at 3:33. With the point capped, Attacker spawn moved up to right next to first point, which means Illari is not long walking - she spawns right next to the team. She wasted a 30 second cooldown to save the Illari like, 5 seconds.

[@sethescope]

this is a very good comment. using res in a suboptimal way can be a crippling mistake that prevents someone from climbing because it's such an impactful ability. knowing how capping points affects your team's spawn is HUGE as Mercy. it's okay to let people walk back from spawn if spawn isn't far away or if they have movement abilities that let them get back quickly (like tracer, Sombra, soldier, etc)

[@josephdavis3472]

@@sethescope Baps will make this mistake too, inmo-ing and trying to save someone who was going to respawn in 10 seconds right beside them before the next fight even starts. Instead they'll use inmo and won't have it when the fight breaks out.

If you are just going to heal every single teammate the second they take damage and barely ever damage boost the dps and instead get your own pistol out every 5 seconds to shoot people, there is no reason to pick Mercy when most of the supports in the game can do that better. Mercy has damage boost, something that no other support has, you need to be using it, otherwise, you are not getting enough out of Mercy.

[@thuydungie]

agree, the only reason i pick mercy over other supps is when i can get in a 60-70 percent dmg boost usage at least

[@chestercos]

healbot mercys usually play mercy because they cant/dont want to aim, and shes pretty easy for newer players

[@zorablaise636]

I used to play Mercy because I love the movement she has, but if your team is not getting the kills, or you are not target prioritizing, then you won't climb. Playing mercy as a one trick works if your team can do most of the heavy lifting with kills, but sometimes you have to go moira and pressure their squishys

[@FlamingNinjaBoi]

This is why when Mercy players ask 'How can I get unstuck from my rank?' The best answer is to pick up another support. She's very strong, but only if her team isn't getting diffed. Having at least one other supp you can carry with is a worthwhile investment, just in case your team isn't really performing too well.

[@neilmallick20]

you'll climb in the long run as a mercy one trick, it just takes a lot of games and patience. if you can't reliably add enough value to climb out of bronze as mercy, you aren't going to magically start doing well in gold. this mercy would do very poorly in gold, that's why they are in bronze. not because of their hero choice. being adaptable and having a hero pool is good, but you don't need those to climb because climbing is all about winning more than losing, which you can do with ANY hero in the roster.

[@zorablaise636]

@neilmallick20 i would have lost so many games as a mercy one trick. Why? A tank that is easily pressuring your team can be countered by a well timed ana. A hog tank that refuses to switch and is being counted by ana? Go kiriko. Have a doom that overextends longer than he should? Lifeweaver and grab. If tanks have to play the counter swap game, then so do dps, and definitely supports.

[@THEpicND]

@@FlamingNinjaBoiOr to duo with a person who is competent and flexible on dps

[@neilmallick20]

@@zorablaise636 yes having a hero pool and being flexible are good skills to have. that's what i said, you can rank up faster if you know how to play different supports well for different situations. however, that does not mean you cannot rank up one-tricking mercy. you most certainly can, and this mercy is proof of that, they are NOT hardstuck bronze because they play mercy, they are hardstuck bronze because they play mercy poorly. mercy is an extremely common character to one-trick and you see mercy one-tricks in every elo, because there is a skill gradient associated with the character.

[@transscribe]

speaking as a support player who climbed from bronze to diamond playing mostly ana, lower level mercy players do not realize how much they nerf their flex support partner by perma pocketing the tank. you can't heal a tank up as quickly as even a mediocre ana player, but when you ignore the team's dps and only heal the tank, you take away so much ult charge from your flex support and your dps can't hold off angles for good damage without dying. every flex support ult in the game is better than valk, help your other support build their ult by healing your tank.

[@sethescope]

2:06 first thing's first, if the team is ever split up, you should aim to always have a support with each group. because illari is with the tank, you need to be with the dps. i know you messed up the GA to them, it happens, but you can just walk up the stairs to them. it takes longer, but you'll be in a good position to support them as well as be able to peek main to get your beam on your tank and illari once they push up far enough. just from this choice alone, you're preventing yourself from contributing a lot of value. 2:42 your dps are making the right plays and can do so much where they're at, and you are holding them back by not being there with them. i cannot emphasize enough how you could be carrying this fight by making sure the dps can secure elims but based on your comment, you're too busy thinking they're being too aggressive or something. no, they're literally doing their job right now. they are off angling. they are making the enemy deal with two problems (pressure from main and from their angle) at once. thats good dps play. as a mercy player, you need to learn to see when your dps are doing the right things so you can support them. and before anyone says "silver dps players are shit," I'm in plat 5 and had a game the other day with a silver 2 soldier. I had swapped to Kiriko to cleanse enemy nades, and when i had kitsune and pressed my button to let everyone know, this chad walked directly up to me and pressed his "my ult is ready" voice line. he wanted to combo our ults, which is an awesome idea, and he got a team wipe. silver dps players can know stuff and do know how to make good plays. whether their supports are willing to actually support them is often the deciding factor for whether the plays are successful. 2:53 im not sure what your plan was with this movement. you put yourself on full display for the enemy but didn't do anything with the risk you took. i actually initially thought you were super jumping to the high ground to eventually GA to where your dps were, which isnt the ideal way to do it, but hey, it's the thought that counts sometimes. but that didn't end up happening. you could have easily been killed doing this. 3:02 I feel like you once heard advice about crouch spamming when in rhe open and then decided to just do it all the time, just in case. you don't need to. crouch spamming is a situational tool, not something for all the time. 3:12 practice canceling GA more often. you've ended up in enemy sightlines 2-3 times in this single sequence behind the bus for absolutely no reason. you don't need to GA at all, you can just walk forward. don't overcomplicate things if they don't need to be complicated, you know? 4:01 crouching behind cart is usually the worst position possible in situations like this when you have so many other options. aim for positioning that lets you support your team without being overly stressful, i.e., on the objective (unless you are the ONLY one who can contest), in the open, etc. 4:11 i can see just from this short amount of gameplay that you are holding yourself back from climbing because you are too afraid of being aggressive. if this was my game, i basically would not leave my soldier's side unless my other support and sigma needed something (damage boosting either ult, healing one who was critical and being focused). you need to understand that aggressive dps are good dps. and you also would benefit from watching high ranked DPS so you can begin to understand what a good dps looks like in terms of positioning so you can separate good, aggressive dps from feeding dps lol

[@fallenprometheus]

There's a fine line between aggresive dps and suicidal dps. They weren't suicidal in this match in particular, but I really question the wisdom in saying that.

[@sethescope]

@@fallenprometheus as you yourself noted, there is a difference between aggressive and suicidal dps. part of learning to play support is learning the difference and knowing how to spot it and play around it.

[@fallenprometheus]

@sethescope The issue I take it is that aggressive dps generally tend to overdo it and fall into the slippery slope of suicides. More often then not aggressive dps isn't good dps because of that, which is where my comment comes in, but I agree that as a support it's up to you to notice the difference when there is one.

[@Real_MisterSir]

Looking at this gameplay I get the feeling that they're having to fight a horde of mosquitos while they're playing. Jumping around and looking around frantically all the time, acting like there are GM widowmakers at every corner hailing hellfire on them.. CHILL. RELAX. You're in silver. People can't aim for shit, as long as your positioning is fine you got nothing to worry about. Put that effort into looking what your team needs, what they're doing, and how you can assist them - instead of overfocusing on your own twitchy frantic playstyle where you're constantly dodging your own demons or some shit. Relax, play more proactively with your dps, have a fallback option in mind, and don't tunnel vision on your tank. Supporting your dps means they can take off more pressure from your tank anyways.

@@chankupersonal Oh cool, hope it makes sense! And remember, you can fly across the map with GA as long as an ally is in sight, so when you see a reasonable chance for it, try to experiment with some very offensive adventures with your dps if your Soldier for example sets up on a high ground behind enemy team. As long as the enemy has to spend an ability just to reach you, that should be considered a fairly safe position even behind enemy lines :)

This mercy player is the exact reason why I dont like seeing them while I grind my dps games. They either never pocket you, or just pocket you long enough to give you confidence to make a play just to leave you the moment you need them. the fact they opened the game by dual healing the sigma and never even looked to see where the dps were, all you need to see to understand why they've been stuck.

as a mercy player who was one hard stuck in lower ranks, this mercy should definitely work on focusing more on her dps. when i play mercy, i rarely touch my tank unless it’s absolutely needed or i know the damage boost will be efficient. i understand that as mercy, i expect to be focused when moving with my dps but her movement is good. she could easily maneuver to safety if her dps pushed too far. like she definitely understands how to play the game! i really hope she takes this feedback and climbs out of silver!

Also I see this mercy have good movements like super jumping and slingshotting but sometimes those aren’t needed. A simple gardian angel that help you get close to the teammate to keep the beam retention is great to keep you safe and lower gardian angle cool down. One example is when the mercy dashed to the dps but jumped into the enemy. Hopefully this helps

i’ve been playing mercy for a while now and the biggest thing that i look out for is the 50/50. if the other healer is with a tank/dps and the other dps is trying to make a play, i go with them. i make sure that if were separated/all over the map i make sure to support the others. also, the ga ability that i tend to overuse haha, but i learned how to use them more effectively for positioning and overall moving around the map to support the team. the other thing about mercy is that if ur good enough, you can go 40+ asists and 0 deaths. people tend to forget about mercy ahha so bmg boost (as much as u can) and healheal heal. also choose a dps that u will “pocket” obv still lookout for your team but having a particular hero to pocket will also benefit.

[@bmcavazos91]

Plat mercy main, this mercy really lacks situational awareness and doesn't stick with their dps. They don't use Valk very well or prematurely, movement is slightly weird and they are very scared to move up or take small risks to capitalize on their DPS. They do have technical skill and could potentially get better

[@Aesqie]

my eyes are going so funny with them crouch spamming every 2 seconds oml

[@GummyDinosaursify]

I dont understand that movement. Crouch spamming while standing in the open on the ground is so weird. And then she does this "hide behind walls" but it's always the worst one. I feel like she watched some high level Mercy players and didn't understand why they moved like they did.

[@Aesqie]

@@GummyDinosaursify yeah fr, like they didn’t actually know where to position, it felt as if they were relying on gimmicks to stay alive to account for poor positioning.

[@chankupersonal]

@@AesqieI crouch spam a lot because it’s become a bit of a habit haha, I used to habitually jump a lot and wanted to change that and shifted it to crouching so that was the reason you see a lot of crouching in the video (i’m the mercy btw)

[@patrickmcdaniel5756]

13:30 the question, i would give this mercy the same advice i give my low rank friends. Slow it down. That doesnt mean do less, it means do better things less often, then ok/bad things lots. In other words if your on hanzo its better to shoot 2 arrows and land one taking your time, then shoot 8 and miss them all. On support its not your job to heal everyone, your 1 of 2 supports. Its not your job to save everyone, trades happen. One vod is too limited to really say what big picture is wrong here but not at least climbing to gold says, many bad choices that can "feel" like your doing alot.

[@chankupersonal]

honestly ty! I have a herd time calming down and looking at the big picture, so it affects how I play haha. I’ll definitely keep this advice in mind ❤ (i’m the vod mercy ehe)

[@cedlala]

My philosophy with mercy is to follow my team wherever they go (while still not being reckless) and try to support them through thick and thin. A lone mercy with a full dead team is mostly useless anyway so might as well die with my team. Mercy has one of the highest survivability in the roster thanks to her mobility but that works only if you play close to your team. I’m not saying you should follow anyone who overextends alone but stick with most of your team and jump to the straggler once in a while to top them off on hp

[@nemebliss]

What I can say is you should try to stick with your dps, especially if your second support has a ton of healing output to keep the tank alive. What makes Mercy so strong is her damage boost and you'd be surprised what dps can do if you show them you have faith in them 😊 Also try to stop the crouch spamming and be mindful of the enemy lineup when you superjump. A good Widow will pick you out of the sky immediately. Don't go for superjump rez when it's safe to simply rez. At the end you messed up two in a row and that could have cost you the game. Another tip I can give you is trying to damage boost certain dps abilities, like Hanzo storm arrow, Ashe dynamite, Bastion turret form, charged up Sym (even Zarya) etc. Sometimes it's more beneficial to boost these abilities even if they're low or crit hp just to secure the kill. All in all, I'd say if you take emongg's words to heart and work on those things you can climb to gold.

[@currentlyintoomanyfandoms2505]

Another thing I’d like to add as a newbie is to check the enemy team; If they have hit scan dps or support (like Ana) they can easily boop you from the sky or try to snipe you. In this video, at one point the enemy team had a Cassidy, Widow and an Ana. Plus a diving DVA. So keep moving and be wary of where the enemy is, who is you’re biggest worry enemy wise (like a Sombra, Tracer) and the solo ults! (I can’t count how many times the enemy team has zeroed in to kill me especially lol)

[@currentlyintoomanyfandoms2505]

Also custome games are awesome, the Mercy Parkour helps a ton with movement and res

[@jinxdbd]

If you feel Ana is going uncontested. Go Bap/Kiri/Moira and take care of her. In your current rank you can't expect/hope/pray your team will do things.

[@567taco]

I think the best thing for this Mercy to do is to focus more on decision making and the basics, as well as learning how to support their DPS (and tank and other support) to get kills. A lot of value is being lost when you're frantically moving about, constantly switching beams, and other such bad habits. Sometimes it's better to take it a little slower. Plus, you also have to learn when to get aggressive, which is difficult to gauge. But if you don't force aggression by damage boosting your DPS during opportune moments such as them using big CD or them being in a good damage position, then you just won't climb. Sometimes you won't be perfectly safe, but you gotta take risks to get anything done, and it'll help you learn to stay focused even during hectic battles, which can often be what determines if you win or lose. Honestly, playing Mercy is basically just you desperately squeezing as much value out of your teammates as possible, and you gotta give them the opportunity to be squeezed lol

[@Linaard]

Not a big Mercy player so take this with a pinch of salt. What I reacted to the most (except target prio) was the movement and positioning. She seems to have good enough mechanics for movement in the rank, but don't know where to go with it, or when it's fine to stay. There were a few times she went to high ground for like 1 sec and then jumps off. Kinda like as if high-ground was just a platform to practice movement on? It's fine to breath out and play slower, this seemed a bit... twitchy almost. I imagine it this makes it harder to understand what is happening in the game.

[@chankupersonal]

I’m trying to get better there :,) I’m the mercy in the vod, but yea I tend to get stiff playing comp and have a hard time fully relaxing and taking in the game fully (anxiety thing tbh-)

[@ninibeatdown9812]

Dude that ana was insane

[@craigartasin]

What I would have done at the start of defense with that Bastion vs Cassidy is bait him. DPS can't resist the chance to try and kill a mercy because of how helpless she is. So I'd peek the corner a bit with pistol from the doorway before he even comes up the steps. second I see the enemy color though, I'd back up and fly tf away. so he'll hear/see the mercy shots, get fired up for the kill, charge forward with roll & whip his hinder at me. use both his cooldowns and, get melted by the bastion from behind while I fly away to the other side of the map. this probably wouldn't be recommended higher than plat though, it'd probably end up a trade lol

[@emieyebrows]

1:47 i believe they tried to get to the soldier but their glide didn't glide enough + enemies on the side could easily shoot them down. Support struggles

[@sweetcandy48426]

Well it is silver, you can get away with many things in low elo, plus she should've stayed with her hitscan to begin with

[@sweetsurrender815]

Sounds like silver struggles tbh

[@mrzkrysd6735]

As a plat mercy, her movement was definitely good enough for the low/mid gold rank she wants! She only really died when she dove into the team. (Which happens sometimes 😭) Plus target priority. Just like emongg said, if youve got another support who can keep up the tank, play with a dps like soldier- as long as they have good positioning!

[@ebhaenger8246]

So first of you movement is good enough in general i would say it would be enough for high gold to mid plat. (you have high keystrokes/sec rate imo, but if your comfortable with it, sure) just keep in mind to not show your self as often in the open as you do. (like at the most obvious timestamps 2:47, 22:12) one window shot, one hanzo arrow, or a dmg boosted ash etc. is enough to be dangerous. your issue with not taking high ground, emongg said will fade away on it's own, if you stick more to your DPS's, i'm pretty sure about that. but i guess your biggest issues i see are, not much trust in the second support to keep the tank alive (you can just tell the other support that he should let you know, if he need help with that tank; if the tank is feeding that's an other story) not a good dmg boost priority not adjusting playstyle to the team comp (while this is more a combination of the two other problems) when i'm playing mercy there are not that many cases i'm on my tank. those are (in general) if the other support is something with not much burst heal. (off healer, or in other words like Zen, Lucio, Lifeweaver and depending on the playstyle of brig) i see the other support is struggling keeping the tank alive in critical situations i see the tank is going for a play (Zaria on High dmg and not in a bad position, rein is hard pressuring the backline, ball while using his Piledriver, winston zapping many at once... you get the point) as long as none of the cases above applies, i'm sticking to both DPS's like glue and enable them depending o there situation. is reaper close to someone or far away, did bastion enter his turret form, ash is about to throw her dynamite etc. ... but i have to say there are some DPS hero's i simply ignore way more often then others. like torb unless needed, sombra to not reveal her invisibility, sometimes mei. those DPS heros do good on there own. if you getting used to those things, you'll climb pretty fast, i'm sure.

[@christinakruse404]

Im surprised they didnt try to fly during valk

[@13enwarner]

I think the mechanics are okay. The thing keeping this mercy behind is the mindset. They have to be willing to support the dps blood lust lol. At the end of the day, even as a support, the goal is to make sure the enemies die (by supporting dps plays). There's so many low level supports that are all "Oh my dps is trying to make a play and kill enemies? What a fool, they should just hide in spawn the entire time like me".

[@sethescope]

a little bit blunt, but yes. speaking from my own past experience in silver, that was 1000% my issue. once I embraced aggressive teammates and decided to start actually supporting their plays (while doing so in as safely a manner as I could), I started to climb.

[@neilmallick20]

good point. you need to be cold and calculating as a support, you only have finite resources and attention and you need to support the players making plays and ignore the players feeding. almost every support (and tanks too) has the ability to be selfish with their abilities OR use them to help their teammates, and knowing when to help your team vs. taking matters into your own hand is part of improving as a player.

[@delightful-ish]

16:00 this is why I end up translocating over walls away from my mercy fairly often in QP

[@sunsun9998]

I’ve never said this before but I think she’s acting like she’s playing in a t500 lobby but she’s in silver. She’s making no plays, doesn’t have dmg boost priority (like not with her pushed up soldier, not dmg boosting ults etc.) when you’re in silver you can get a lot more cocky with your pistol, do a lot more movement and healing, and dmg boost isn’t necessary. (In other words she’s playing too safe) The crouch spamming is also a little frustrating I feel like it’s a pretty bad habit since I didn’t think the movement is gonna help you live much. Also behind cover she could do normal strafes and focus on camera positioning and decision making then if she’s getting focussed or in a bad position “crouch spam” (but perhaps learn what the enemy sees when you’re doing this to find out what’s effective) until behind cover again.

[@turmas3342]

As a support main, who thoroughly enjoys playing mercy, and even plays for a varsity level high school esports team, one thing they really need to work on, is adapting to each situation, they would hide way in the backline like an ana healing the tank, which is not always bad, like i said, certain situations require different playstyles. Being able to adjust how you play based on a situation, if you have a soldier taking high ground and a primary healer with the tank, thats when mercy should be playing in all the hard to reach angles with the dps. But say the dps are dead, and your team is trying to fall back without losing too much space, i think they were playing that entire game as if they were in that situation. Yes target prioritization is HUGE, i think they had other things to think about.

[@yumqki1059]

[@commentbot9510]

This Mercy would be gold easily if she watched a pocket tier list. Maybe plat if she got better at knowing when to res. She survives well but its hard to tell if that would continue in higher ranks because higher ranks put more pressure on supports. In silver there is essentially no pressure. Their positioning was mostly good though.

[@mekacrab]

[@rogue728i]

The soldier deserved better

[@mekacrab]

Seeing "silver mercy", I already knew what the main issue would be, because it's always the same. People need to understand that Mercy is pretty much a way to enable your DPS heroes and pocket them. Your role is not to support your tank and it is definitely not to damage boost your other support. (You can obviously heal your tank if this is required) Just stay with your hitscan, your pharah or any other DPS and don't die.

[@neilmallick20]

If you want a quick cheese strategy to get out of bronze, just keep res'ing the tank. Tank dies, res, the tank. Nobody will punish you for it. Just keep res'ing the tank and they'll waste so many resources trying to kill the tank twice that it gives basically infinite space for the rest of your team to do things.

[@________stephens8251]

Literally I made a new account to play only mercy to see if I can escape bronze and the game is decided on which tank dies the fastest! Everyone including the other support stands still in the open, only shooting the other tank, no matter what. If I see someone shooting near someone that's not the tank, they get a damage boost for the time that I can without the rest of the team falling over, Cause the other support does not heal. If I use the normal strats that are discussed in OW guides 90% we lose. Keep the tank up, give damage boost when someone is shooting the back line, we win.

[@FlamingNinjaBoi]

@@________stephens8251 Yeah, Mercy just isn't a carry support. If you're a Bronze Mercy, your ability to rank up depends on other bronzes... when you might actually have enough skill and game knowledge to rank up. I would say Mercy mains should have at least one alternate support that can carry, so they can turn to it when their team is just not doing well.

[@damonblack1495]

They have had the game for 6 years but there is no way they been grinding the game that long. Having to tell a Mercy they need to be with the dps is like stuff you learn in year 1. They are fairly decent at avoiding damage. Not being the first to die ever. Good ress choices. But they have no clue what they should be doing other than trying not to die. I've played in bronze. And I know some bronze mental. They may think you can't trust anyone to do what they should be doing. Therefore you justify not doing your job either and try to wear many hats. I mean, that is one excuse for them. Even so, not trusting your other support and tank to perform is a misplay. I understand it. But it doesn't make it a good play. I agree with Emongg. Very capable of climbing. Mercy may just not be the support for them. Or they need to make some, lets be real, non comfy adjustments. You see signs of play that show they have played the game a bit. Not sure about 6 flipping years. It's like they have some hardcore ptsd from games they got ultra rolled and never recovered or something.

[@rezion7483]

To all mercy mains. PLEASE Play a support that can make damage if your dps are not good enough.

[@mindu5854]

I think it’s the game sense that’s like probably not a good part with this mercy…and tbh game sense is very hard to endure even from 6 years of gaming…some people just can understand what to do & what not to do while others won’t. I think she needs to know mercy better on how position she needs to be and when to rez, when to join or when to run for life. And of course the beam target needs to be focused on heroes like 76. If you were able to keep everyone alive while you continued to live without dying as mercy, that’s a big carry, so know when you need to back up even tho some of your teammates might die, but I think as supports, keep ourselves alive is more important to rejoin next team fights.

[@NostromoFeratu]

I think your general movement and positioning for survival is a good base, you can build on that because your movement will give you more survivability for when you're in less safe positioning.

[@kyle57688]

Hello mercy from the video. Best advice is try new stuff. Switch up ur okay style learn new things make mistakes that’s all okay. You seem a little to tentative from this video more willing to sit back when you can take space and use different cover. As mercy you want to have as much dmg boost uptime on a dps as possible as that’s where a lot of her value comes from. You also pull out ur pistol a lot in situations you don’t need it. Use it sparingly only to secure kills when they are right in front of you. I don’t play mercy but general support advice is try in be in positions to dictate the fight. If you know someone wants to be in a position to fight. Enable them to hold that position. You can also try and deny positions from other players while playing supports with more utility than mercy. I think u have a fundamental understanding of the game and decent enough mercy movement mechanics. Just try and be more thoughtful of how and why you are moving in game. What position you can hold safely, and how best you can enable you dps to take and hold strong positions. Best of luck hope to see you in gold soon!

[@chestercos]

positioning and hero knowledge alone in my experience doesn't get you to gold imo, but then again it does depend on what hero you're playing.

[@sweetsurrender815]

​​@@chankupersonalbest advice I have for you, which I gave my friend mercy who used to make the same mistakes as you is to stick to your DPS. The other healer should have the tank and you have the two other DPS pocketed unless you're playing an aggressive pushing tank. You need someone to push forward and do the damage. If the tank isn't going aggro to get point and the DPS is flanking then you should choose to pocket the DPS. Another thing to keep in mind is damage boost, don't get scared and keep healing your team from 80% to 100% all the time, yeah they'll complain and spam that they need healing, but you're not only a healer but a damage booster too. Focus on damage boost unless necessary. Another thing to keep in mind is to fly better in Valk. It seems you're staying on the ground a lot most the time (which isn't great) but at least in Valk try to keep yourself safe in the air. Silver players can't kill a Valking Mercy, their aim isn't good enough just keep moving while in the air. Also your rez should be used a bit differently. You rezzed teammates sometimes when you did not need to because the fight was already over (whether it's won or loss) and in that case you just wasted your cooldown. Oh also I'd lower that sensitivity. I used to play on really high sens too but I suggest something like 800dpi and 6% sens ot something like that. It's considered still fast by most people I believe but it's better. If you don't have the mouse space it's different tho I guess

[@sadamarie2937]

when i first started playing honestly i didn’t dmg boost but once i started learning the game i learned to not dmg boost the tank because that’s what i did but once you learn to dmg boost any hit scan or dive character you can move up. i’m hardstuck diamond but that’s how i got to diamond!

[@Bacchus325]

How do you not improve at a game in 6 years. I placed Gold 3 in my first ever placements months ago after playing for a few months

[@artpotato9838]

That mercy used a lot of super jumps instead of the slingshot jumps. Super jumps leaves you more vulnerable sometimes to sniper characters you become a huge target. you want to play corners, lower to the ground at times and often times you don't even want to use your jumps if you can help it. GA to your dps and cancel it early if you that shortens the cooldown significant so you have more options to move. Also if someones debuffed use your damage boost instead. They healbotted too much and didn't allow the illari to do a lot of healing. its hard playing mercy theres a lot of things to think about, alot of constant adjusting. you have to be quick and think about WERE your most effective its tough. they're not too bad but they gotta be a little quicker.

[@KoiPuff]

One person out of position is feeding. TWO people is a play. Literally pocketing their Soldier here and going with him on flanks would have made this 100% easier. OP said they told their DPS they weren’t going to follow them on their flanks and to play safer. Like… go with them. Trust them a little more until they give you a reason not to. They had a strong second Support (Mostly Illari and Kiriko) for 80% of this game. Let Kiriko handle the Tank. Although I can understand why this Mercy would be wary of leaving the Tank alone. Most Tanks below Diamond have a hard time balancing their aggro and kinda expect both Supports to be on them at all times. I’m a GM Mercy and have a Bronze/Silver account to play with friends and the amount of times I’ve been told to only heal the Tank while playing in Bronze. OOF.

[@andirmiga]

High masters/low gm support here with 1.3k h on mercy. Prefer dmg boosting dps instead of using pistol. Play a lot of games because ranking up with mercy takes longer. The end. I think you did try to ga to your soldier 76 at the beginning but you either stopped the ga (but not on purpose) or got the typical ga bug where she just stops the ga for no reason (often when target runs out of los). then you had the nice cooldown and couldnt follow up so easy anymore thats why you didnt go with them. I would have still tried to catch up with them there tho.

Also this person to fidgety and it gave me motion sickness. The mercy focuses on her own survival and is willing to let her team mate die because she isn't confident enough with herself like nahh I aint gonna die. Her movements are good ngl. Hella smooth.

oh i know how it feels to be hard stuck between Silver - Bronze Support main Moira and Mercy foreverrrr ---> Overwatch 2018ish. Was gold for a short time and then became stuck in Silver and bronze. I also stopped talking in game because of sooo many reasons. I gave up giving call outs. I liked giving call outs and being helpful but ya know people change that >.>

In my experience gold supports and under just don't see dps. Or if they do they don't see us as important, they heal us to half health and will leave you on your own if your playing a character with heals, i was helping my gold bud out and these supports didn't heal me because i was playing reaper and could heal myself. After getting into diamond i noticed a huge difference in my supports, and how they play, i legit never have to tell them to help me, they see me and act accordingly. Low rank really is hell

I've been stuck gold for 2 or 3 years now. Everytime I approach plat all the sudden I go on a 15 game losing streak lol
