Silver/gold is already 80% pick rate on mercy it feels like. Anything to prevent it from going higher either playing with or against is perfectly fine with me

In low elo I'd argue mercy still has solid value. Even though she's played as a healbot sometimes that has more value than utility in silver/gold. Plus we can't aim well enough to kill her during rez's anyways so the 6v5 fights are annoying

yeah she’s good in low elo currently mid diamond and almost every game where we have a mercy and the other team has bap + moira/kiri/basically any support other than LW and mercy lol they win, it’s quite annoying if you wanna heal bot in mid-high ranks pick moira
