There are a lot of little things off with Mercy. On face value she is a good person but underneath there seems to be some dark stuff.
LMAO! Sounds like complete bull. If it where true, holy moly.
the 50/50 is def real
so many times ive went on winning streaks before having the matchmaking leave and say " finding better game" or " not enough player"(when there was literally only 1 spot vacant)
and after that when I get matched suddenly im in crappy teams and we are getting steamrolled... hmmm...

Someone needs to read about how MMR works lol

Platinum Trophy: Learned to Shit While Upright Again.
Well some of the achievements for this game are bullshit
Blizzard has to know this
Take Zenyatta 5 Discord Orb kills/assists within 6 seconds
The best I've done is probably 3 within 10 secs, your asking me to hit 2 others within 4 sec less
You almost have to discord orb near death people and hope they stand still and die, five times...
There's boosting parties galore cause some are just downright stupid to earn which if you think about it takes away from the game
Some are good like a Reaper death Blossom of 4 kills is doable, same goes for a lot of the 4 kill ultimates
Some require luck, skill, placement, like say 2 kills off a Hanzo Shattered Arrow, but there are opportunities for it take place
3 teleporters, is random luck
Need enemy to be Symm, then get her Ultimate 3 times, then you have to destroy it 3 times
Most of the time placed in spots hard to reach solo due to being behind enemy lines
Roadhog knockoff 2 players with your Ultimate, certain map needed with your ultimate up with right health pool enemy
Good luck knocking some characters off, they'll die before getting knocked out
The Widowmaker get a falling headshot is pure random luck again, you seriously have to force yourself to get it by falling off high spot and netting a kill, doable but once again to much randomness which can impede a team as a whole if players chasing it
Yeah pretty much this. It's fucking crazy the hate that Paragon and Battleborn get here. It's unfair to both games.

Because you're about to lose A LOT of games.

Is the player dropoff starting to hit now? Seems like it's taking longer to find games.

The game just sent me to a new team even though no one left. We'll see how this theory goes.

MMR based matchmaking will try to pit you against players of similar skill level, but if it takes too long then it lowers its search parameters until you get to play and usually this will mean matches with players well below what you're used to. This isn't some ploy or whatever it's just how this type of system works.

Brings a whole new meaning to the nerf wars / buff wars normally going on around competitive games.
In any case, I refuse to believe it. People would notice (NinjaEdit: Before now, I mean.), plus it would undersell the whole reason MMR exists.
From playing WoW since the start one of the first things I ever learned was to never read the battle.net forums.
one day the game will match you into shit teams durinf the whole day and then your winrate will be in the 50s
it happened to me 2 days ago, literally 10 games in a row were losses ( even when I tried to leave and join another match, the matchmaking had no pity for me) and it brought down my winrate to like 54%
I accidently pulled a d.va nuke into my entire team earlier as roadhog

we still won though

I really think there's something more to her than "she's a great doctor and pacifist and loves helping people". There's this part in her backstory about her being a surgeon in a hospital before making a breakthrough in nano technology - I honestly believe that she must've experimented for that stuff somehow.
Plus, her codename is Mercy. That's the type of compassion you show towards people whom you have power over.
I did this once with a Lucío ult. I hit it a second too late and lost four teammates to a Pharah. I tried to hold the point but I was way too outnumbered and died quickly. The memory haunts me every night.

inb4 mei talk
but dont worry in 48 hours he'll have video proof
I wonder how the game decides your skill level.
I'm probably in a pretty shitty lower tier.
I wish there was a way to erase your statstics and everything after a while, especially considering this is the first FPS I've played on PC in a long time and my aiming skill needs a lot of work.

i was playing pharah and that makes it even WORSE
He line when she revives is something totally different to me now.
"Heroes never die! ...For a price."
I used to think it was a joke about the medical system costing so much. Now I think it means their is this unknown price the heroes are paying when they are brought back.
Don't trust Mercy guys.
I don't think you should be concerned too much about stats in a game like this.

To be fair, that's for her demon costumes.
I'm not sure those altered quotes are "canon".But I do think the angelic shtick is surface only.

Forced 50 is real. Obviously it won't work all the time but being in the 70s and getting matched with single digits is not normal or enjoyable
It's my pride talking.
I'm ranked around 1000 as Mei in score, but 9000 in score/min. Feels bad.

Had a random on Lucio who swapped to Pharah when he died
you are the only support don't do this

I just had to deal with a player on PS4 named HeresMcCree, who shockingly played as McCree, and went on a fan the hammer spree, and he ended up getting PoTG which was three FTH kills in a row.....That upcoming FTH nerf is starting to look like an early Christmas present at this point.

If anyone wants to group up on PS4, please add me (name in profile). Tired of playing with randoms who just dance on the outside of objectives to snipe. I also have a few people I play with too.
He's even a house on Xbox.
I picked mcree and destroyed teams.
I picked Genji and looked like it was my first time with a controller.
Could have been worse. I once had a game where the Lucio player didn't understand how his healing and speed buff worked and spent all of his time shooting at us instead of the enemy.
I was healing once and got tired of me getting focused down and we were getting steamrolled
switched to pharah and suddenly we were doing much better
Either my healing was shit or my pharah was good, but yeah sometimes switching even off support is a good idea
That's actually endearing, cause you know he's trying to help!
As a support, I switch if it's becoming pointless or frustrating keeping people healed. If I switch out of support this is a great opportunity for someone else to jump in and give it a go, such as yourself.

I rotate through the healers each death if I get frustrated.

Got a new highlight intro with Mei where she slips around and points her gun with the robot. Feels good.

Amen.
He is a lot of fun and very strong. It's a good time to just wall ride around the top of the objective healing while nobody seems to notice you.

I should really learn how to play Lucio. He seems really handy to have on a team. Pharah is my go-to whenever the character I was using just isn't working.
