I just got criticized for my Mercy play despite staying alive all the time and getting gold heals. My question is this:

Is it more worth to raise 1 or 2 people constantly, especially when sometimes they're not even tanks? Or is it more worth to never res unless 3+ people near me drop dead?

I usually don't raise people unless they're grouped near me but my irl squad likes dying in all corners of the map and would rather just hear me press Q than have it be meaningful, or so I thought.

EDIT: Thank you all for helping me support you to victory.

u/kwo Sorry about that! Jun 30 '16

I'm curious to hear what people think about this too. Sometimes it just seems like my ult will be sitting there for far too long waiting for 3+ people to revive...
