man they werent kidding when they said it was a disappointing end.... Definitely a game of overwatch right there

Being hard stuck bronze 5 is the worst bc you do well and you get a good win streak, but 5-0 only moves you up like 11% in the ranking. Then, because you are the worst rank, you get the worst teammates and you move down again. I feel bad for the mercy.

Proud sister of the featured mercy, she only started playing this year but she generally performs pretty well. She's worked hard to improve and it's nice to see how far she's come.

Actually pretty good mercy playing, I have gold/plat games where mercy will never use blue beam, so the fact they're using blue beam as much as they are is nice to see. I feel like if they used the space cancel for GA more they could have gotten better positioning and moved more quickly. But honestly better mercy playing thanbronze.

I'm a gold plat mercy and I wish the people that took mercy from me played like this ngl

met an ana player in qp that was bronze and I told them, "As a mercy main, I've NEVER had an ana ever heal me. You're the first. Ain't no way your bronze" and with a little help from my friends and I ensured they got out of bronze, and up to gold. Not a remarkable upgrade, but I couldn't stand seeing a fellow support diehard be stuck where they don't belong.

I am very impressed, and pleased with her performance. She played really well!

Mercy is a pretty hard support character to climb out of Bronze with, ngl. Speaking as a former Bronze Mercy main. When I swapped to Ana and Zen, I got to gold in a week or two.

Definitely didn’t do that bad to be hard stuck Bronze 5. Probably deserves mid-silver. She has the mechanics of the movement down but her positioning can still use some work. As someone who started on games like Valorant, her sweeping the ground with her crosshair will always trigger me. However, she still had a decent sense of where her teammates were and what/who to prioritize when. Definitely not perfect but definitely not bronze. It’s hard to climb on support though since games are so heavily dependent on your DPS and your tank

14:28 mercy, i want you to know i see how you are holding damage boost while they're purple until a split second BEFORE the anti nade ends and then prehealing them so the split second they CAN receive healing, they will. I want you to know that i understand how intentional you are trying to be and how much you're paying attention. people only seem to be focusing on the fact you are using blue beam instead of actually how skillful your use can be, but i see you :) i play mercy too, I know how minute the decisionmaking gets amd i see you ☺️

15:00 this valk was so good and well timed. chefs kiss. the team fight had just started, and you wanted to support zarya while they were aggressive while staying safe at a distance. super super good.

I think the biggest problem with maining Mercy in bronze is your utility is very reliant on your teammates and their skill and game sense.  When I was trying to climb out of gold/plat in OW1 I really had to learn another support that could almost carry at lower sr.  Moira is very strong down here if you can learn your own game sense and awareness because she's a much simpler character mechanically and you don't have to rely on your team at the same level to perform well or bail yourself out.
Then OW2 Kiriko helped me get to Master finally where DPS players seemed significantly more skilled which helped make my Mercy play so much more effective.

I feel like if that mercy practices their movement more, they could definitely climb. Even in my diamond/masters games I have other mercy players who pick her before I do and just heal bot or feed. They seem to definitely know where mercy’s utility is. Just keep using cover and master her movement you’ll climb soon ☺️

Its bronze when you know theyre just letting the pharah kill their team with no hitscan

As a Mercy main who averages diamond, this mercy got robbed by the ranking system. They're not tunnel visioning too hard, they're switching to damage boost as quickly as their target reaches full health (soooo many low ranked mercy's linger on heal beam when it's not needed), they're peeling, they have decent target priority, and most importantly they're using GA and high ground to mostly stay on the sidelines of the fight instead of just walking directly into it.
I'm curious how this person would play with the stereotypically awful bronze 5 team (you know, dps who are playing on a toaster, a tank who's insanely passive, and a team with no concept of positioning). Either way based on this vod I'd say this mercy deserves gold.

8:47 lmao this message in chat about genji is so relatable

These bronze players are better than my plat teammates 😭

as a mercy main who learned when not to res that last res hurt my soul. there was a chance to save their junkerqueen or at least contest, maybe even get a possible res on junkerqueen. plus they had reaper still there. the mercy player is decent but it does make sense why they’re still bronze. my number one tip with mercy, your survival > your team. that res on the moria had such a slim chance of the mercy surviving, obviously since they died, so it’s not worth going for it.

For a moment I was excited that we finally got the hour long Mercy Dorado game but then I remembered we just watched that for shits and giggles and did the actual bingo with this replay code 😅 Still excited to see the edited YouTube version. This is a great birthday so far ❤

They might have to start switching to other characters to get out of Bronze. I'm in mid silver on support right now, and their Mercy looks way better than mine. I don't play Mercy hardly at all, I play for a second in QP, get rolled and then switch off. But, I think the reason I'm in Silver and not Bronze is because I try to play characters that will better support my team. In this case (I can't say for sure since I didn't play in the game, hindsight is 20/20), I think I would've switched to Baptist to increase my healing output and keep the team up when they were being aggressive on defense.

Love you Emongg. The most wholesome OW2 streamer. ❤
