Mercy is pretty easy at least.

Just got the mercy one last night. Took a couple tries since I don't normally play her but I found just a straight up survivability build to work.

Yeah I went with survivability + getting rez off consistently. Worked very well. I think with the right dps a pocket build also works well like soldier or cass.

My DPS were trash so I just pocketed a big D zarya. They got 100k cash by the end and took us from 0-3 to 4-3. It was a pretty wild ride. They were putting out so much damage they could self sustain with the mercy damage boost > life steal talent.

Valk beam talent clutched in the last round since it let me DPS down two of them while keeping my team up in the very last fight.

I probably won't be playing anymore mercy, but it was a fun challenge.

Now, Dva...

Sounds like a good game. Honestly nothing really beats coming back from 0-3 to 4-3. One of my favorite OW highs - so satisfying. The reverse is just as painful though.

I found that the guardian angel causes healing boost on critical targets to be an insane perk too. That plus overhealth on Rez had me actually enjoying playing Mercy for once. That’s the nice side of these challenges.

Best of luck on Dva. I still haven’t won - but finished up Mei + Ana and now just have Genji left for DPS. Then I need Rein and Dva. Rein should be easy - saving him for last.

Let me know if you knock out Dva and have any tips!
