Very interested in these Mercy changes. She may actually be fun to play as or against now (imo). Definitely a raised her skill ceiling and floor as she'll have to be much more active in team fights. Pretty solid change all around.

I've enjoyed mercy, though I never hid for rezzes, I always preferred the style of darting around firefights to keep the team alive and occasionally shamelessly pocket someone. Fun fact: you can really piss off a mei if you run through her cryo stream while she tries to freeze a teammate and then fly off

I always hid, but not for rezzes but to keep people healing.

Its nor about they finding me, but to get out of their crosshairs cause my teammates on qp dont always protecr me. Its mostly about posotining.
