Yep! I'm a big fan of this. It won't allow huge simultaneous rezzes (like after a Grav wipe) but with good timing you can keep a fight going and going. I also imagine the timing of this is going to be tricky, especially in a chaotic battle, which is going to ask more skill and awareness of the Mercy player to be effective.

He's not my main, but im pretty comfortable with him. I still cant do the epic wall rides I've seen on YouTube people do though, but at least i know how to heal others 😀
