The thing with the mercy nerf is that it it's the only nerf needed because of the perception and not the game play.
I have never had problems playing against mercy, I don't think she's op to play against. She's pretty easy to kill if you go after her first..no problem.
However, the perception that she is sooooo 100 % necessary that half the time my team will instantly tilt if they don't have one is the real problem.
The perception that no other healers are acceptable other than Mercy is what makes people tilt from either not having one, or having to switch from another healer to her.. every single game
I lost a game this morning cause I bitched out on Anubis. We had a bad attack phase with me on Moira, I had Gold heals, Silver damage, and probably a good 5 Elim lead, I was the only one killing the Pharah and Mercy, but they whined on D until I switched to Mercy, then proceeded to die to Roadhogg hooks and a D.va bomb in record time. I have never tilted, but I might get chatbanned for a bit if anyone reports my rant.
