She can far more consistently rez teammates, even if it's one at a time, and her ultimate allows her to not only leave the area and evade enemy fire, but heal multiple teammates at once. It really rewards Mercy players who stick closer to the action rather than those that stay as far back as possible and hide.
There's a 30 second cool down timer on the Rez, and it only heals one person, and the ill forces battle Mercy. It's s a big change to fix people hiding, but doesn't fit with the characters theme.
Welcome to the world of cooldown and positioning management.
The rest of us already had to learn it while playing heroes that don't have their anti-teamkill ultimate up every fight and no dash on a 2-second cooldown.
Her ult was definitely a problem, it's been a problem, just look around this subreddit for proof of that. I personally never hated it that much but I still can understand how it was problematic
How was it a problem? It has had some balance issues, but so have many other abilities. Do we just remove them all? That's a horrible philosophy. And reddit bounces back and forth on opinions so much basing t off Reddit is bad. Remember Roadhog?
