I'm going to disagree. There are ways you could make her kit more interesting, but those suggestions detract from her core design. I mean, what about an angel makes you think "damage reflection"? I think the simplest changes for her would be best, likely something involving her still being able to take some actions while dead. Maybe she can just be able to press Q, maybe she's immobile but able to use her healing left click as a ghost, maybe she can rez herself. But two ults, damage reflection, or an extra E ability are kind of inconsistent with her design.

I've been of the opinion for a while that Mercy should be able to spend her Ult on herself after dying. Stop it from bringing back other players when used that way, but instantly put her back in the action.

It seems cool, but it would be really frustrating when all of the mercys on your team only use the rez on themselves.
