400 hours on Mercy and I still watch the beginners guides you put out, you're just so soothing and lovely.
Same
What's your rank after 400 hrs? Wondering how many hours I'd need... haha
@@jeraiceball I'm GM1 support with most of my wins being on Mercy and Brigitte
@@BowserSimp123 oh wow how many hours have you played!
@@jeraiceball 563 on Mercy lol
Important note: Mercy's ammo has a really big hitbox and you can easily get headshots without directly aiming at the head.
no, YOU can easily get headshots without directly aiming at the head. *I* am bad lol
@@sethescope it's extremely easy, honestly, I recommend the practice range
@ with the projectile size buffs it's gonna be even easier to headshot.
For any new Mercy players there will be times where it feels like you aren’t doing anything. I would look into how many assists you are getting and aiming to be the person with the most as this usually means you’re getting value with DMG. You got this!
As a new player, yes I feel worthless.
Always being the first who get killed, never winning any round.
But hey, it's more fun than playing any other character. Because my aim is so bad, I never was able to kill anyone.
I know that, no matter what I play, I will never kill anyone and my team looses 100% guaranteed.
@thegreatveritas 250 hours in on Mercy and my feeling is she is the best character to learn the game with because what the game winds up being is a few steps removed from watching the game, you always want to be looking around at what your team is doing and recognizing who's engaging, who's getting pushed, who's feeding, etc.
Also, when you're trying to choose someone to pocket, check the scoreboard, not just damage but elims, high damage and low elims means they're just focusing the tank for big number so they're not top priority lol
even when losing, i consistently get 20+ assists unless my team literally CANNOT get a kill. and when that happens, i switch to illari or kiri, some dps supports im good at. in fact, i won us a round by going illari and constantly killing their supports and dps. too bad we did end up losing 😔
although, sometimes i find it hard to get a lott of damage boost, especially since after the nerf
@@thegreatveritas it's alright, i used to do this too but i kept learning on how to dodge enemies, like sombra, genji etc. those type of dps, and even some dive tanks would target a mercy first, so instead of being an easy kill try to learn how to dodge
what REALLY helped me with movement was mercy parkour, you learn new tech like propjumping (forgot the actual name, but its where you beam a target, go behind a wall or prop and GA to jump off of the wall/prop), bunnyhopping, and using tech to get sneaky rezes or escapes.
ive even had a genji, sojourn and doom all target me at once and i lived on 1hp because i was like that unkillable fly in ur room LMAO
anyone else miss her ow1 movement? 🥺 sure, it was a little harder but that exactly was the charm of it, so rewarding and fun to master
i didnt really play ov1 but it will never keep up with 5v5 cause u can only use tech at the end which now u need to learn do it before. i have a question, what happends u ga then click space?
@@user-eo4it2rn1f a good ow1 mercy player could do practically all the things the current mercy iteration allows (except mid-ga superjump) but have more agility and speed, partially because the cooldown was still short and cancel-able. and as for your question, there isn’t really one answer to it? slingshot used to behave differently and depended on your speed and location relative to the target so it could send you either just forward, upwards (with superjump or if you were below the target), diagonally and even backwards if you used a tech
you could slingshot during the guardian angel too, not just at the end of it and the best part about it was that short-mid range flights didn’t feel clunky and weak as they do now
I don't necessarily miss it because the upsides of the changes are worth the downsides by a mile, BUT I will say that I miss how ow1 GA felt. I think ow2 GA feels less free and floaty and slippery because they had to change how it worked to incorporate super jump and backwards GA, so I totally get it, but I do miss how ow1 GA felt. that being said, again, I do like the predictability and consistency of ow2 GA.
I miss OW1 GA but the change does make positioning a bigger deal so while I hate it, I get it
when you said dont think “when should i damage boost” but instead “when should i heal”. literally blew my mind 🤯
ive never thought of it like that
yeah man, its almost like healing full health teammates does literally nothing
@@500drakesyou should learn some basic grammar.
@@jonb2756 nah I don't think i will pal
@@jonb2756 thanks for the very clearly genuine and non-passive aggressive advice
Almost at 500 hours now on Mercy myself and I love watching your guides to help myself continue to improve. No matter how long I play mercy I still make stupid mistakes and these videos show me what I do wrong and how I can continue on the path of master mercy.
Well, I am looking for motivation. Started to play ow2 because I like the artwork
But it feels depressing to loose 100% of the rounds and being the one killed the most.
ok?
Mercy’s GA has a surprising amount of depth. I’ve started playing her since last season and it’s definitely got a higher skill ceiling the more you rank up!
As MEDIC main, I need that guide so much, cause my friends love overwatch, and almost all about positioning is different,
In the MEDIC you need to be as far as possible from enemy, and avoid spy.
Here you need to be with your team to help
21:50 One thing to note is that using the pistol can make it harder to realize that you actually have flight targets available, since the pistol is the only part of Mercy’s kit that doesn’t allow her to freely look around. I’ve had many many instances in-game where I’ve made myself available as a GA target to my Mercy, spam “group up” and “I need healing” to get her attention, and she just dies and staggers herself because she’s pistoling. (I’ve done it as Mercy plenty too, but it’s very noticeable when you’re the potential savior that Mercy didn’t notice.)
I usually advise new/low-skill Mercy players to avoid the pistol because of how much it constrains awareness. It’s very easy to have the perception that you only use the pistol when there’s nothing else you could do while you’re actually letting teammates and/or yourself die because you aren’t paying attention.
thank you 😭the amount of times i thought i was forced to start pistoling the enemy charging towards me but then i watch the replay once i die and my teammates were literally a few feet behind me
I appreciate how often you update these guides due to how much blizzard meddle with mercy (and usually for the worse). thank you so much
LOOL
sont tjink ahe swlf heals anymore
After all the Mercy hate lately I really needed content like this
As a mercy main, this definitely kicked my ego down several notches...but these are really good tips to know, I honestly didn't know probably more than half of them, so I know what I'll be working on for the next several weeks. Thanks for the video!
Even though I’ve been playing mercy for 6 years now, this is still so nice and relaxing. I’ve been practicing resurrect techs recently and they are really fun to pull off
I just cant help but crouch all the time, the original ga movement is just stuck in my hands, your guides are always where I go for mercy help. Youre literally the best
Just had my first few mercy matches after being a zen main and wow i did not realize how much there is to account for with this character
if it helps, that's how I feel when I attempt to play Zenyatta lol
Great guide as always! I always see lower rank Mercys have bad rezzes too. It's frustrating when you are the one being rezzed into a 2v5 haha. The low DB and bad awareness/positioning are apparent too. Really to climb, just practice those things and you'll climb easily!
Biggest thing about damage boost I try to tell new mercy players is that not using damage boost is essentially the same as playing zenyatta or lucio and not using your primary fire ever. Mercy isn't gonna be pistoling to contribute to damage cuz she needs her staff out to quickly heal. In overwatch all healers contribute offensive pressure constantly, blue beam is how mercy does damage
You inspire me to play mercy!
Day 1 Lucio main taking the plunge into the world of Mercy. Your videos have been a god send. Thanks!
Niandra ive been playing ow ever since it came out in 2016 when i was only 9 years old, im now 16 and ive been watching you for aslong as i can remember and i peaked at top 500 last season im so glad you still make content keep it up.
Your editing is amazing and this video had so many things I didnt know despite playing since 1.0
Excellent guide, clear and to the point
i’m so happy u released this literally saved like 20 ur vids so i can watch offline but now i only need this one😭
fave mercy content in the whole universe ty for the longer vid!!
I'm masters and still learned a new thing from this guide! Very insightful, nice work
Great guide and the edits were really funny. Awesome job.
Tysm for the guide it really helped and the way you explained really helped too❤❤
your voice is so comforting and friendly :) thank you for the video!
8:20 That is something I did not know. TO dodge something like shatter. Great tip I wasn't aware of.
Instant subscribe, glad you popped up on my feed!
Deliciously detailed. Thanks!
I’ve been playing since the realize of Overwatch but I’ve been taking it mor serious recently. I love playing Mercy so thank you for this!
This video was so helpful! I’m trying to master mercy cos I’m usually a support character for my team. This helped so much
perfect video just as i started playing ow2!!!! thank you great video
TYSM, I WANTED SO BAD TO BE A MERCY MERCY MAIN, THIS GUIDE HELPED ME A LOT❤❤
Thank you! I'm learning Mercy and I'm new to the game so thanks ! :)
The is really helped me figure out my beam priority, can definitely see the difference in winning team fights now 😁
Big shoutout from a Rein main to everyone watching this video, Mercy mains are the most patient people in Overwatch and the game wouldn't be the same without y'all
I want to thank u so much I started playing mercy in season 2 of Overwatch 2 and was good but not the best after using ur tips my friends have complimented me so much saying I'm one of the best mercys they've ever seen thank u so much for these tips normally people gatekeep I'm glad u didn't :)
I've only been playing mercy and overwatch for a few hours. Glad I could learn early on.
I do the last one for the first one, Dont heal full-health allies it won't do anything It won't boost your Health ETC so instead damnge boost them especially if they are doing damage
Amazing video, as usual!
Great content! This helps so much as a newb mercy player! You are an absolutely insane mercy player too! sheesh
Glad to know I'm doing most things right! Ty for this.
Will definitely keep these in mind when I next play mercy!
Thanks for more tips! Been playing for years on the PS4, so perfecting the alt-uses of her techs can be tricky...
And thanks for letting me know I can't go back to OW2 yet. I got myself concussed, as you do, and the gameplay clips *still* make me dizzy. -_-
Yay new Niandra content 🥰🥰
Very useful information.
❤ love you Niandra hope youve been healthy and well
I've only just started playing OW2 like 2 days ago, and I was wondering how the hell all the mercys were floating in the air without their ults lol, now I know its the guardian dash jump you explained, thanks for that will help me out a ton!
750 hours and I still feel something lacking. Thank you so much for this! 💗
Amazing video, only thing I'd recommend, turn the background music volume down. There are times where the music is drowning out your instructions / information, or its so distracting that my mind is focusing on the music. A simple volume down, will help with that immensely for future videos :)
23 mins for a mercy guide is crazy
ima be honest even though mercy is one of my top supports for time played, she isnt my all time fav support, i still like her a lot, but i clicked on your video because the artwork in your thumbnail is just phenomenal, and i was wondering if you drew it yourself or who drew it/their handle because the artstyle is so cute and it looks really nice, and if you make other art on insta or deviant or something i wanna know who to follow, again- it looks awesome
This helps a lot thank you! I'm trying to play mercy so my duo can learn dps.
trying to get better at mercy since i think i've gotten a bit worse at her and honestly this guide is really easy to understand!
me who's played ow/mercy for 6yrs and has made it to gm1, i still watch this.
i climbed to gm watching your vids and omg damage boost is the best even with the nerf my db progression level is so ahead of all other levels
great information
I nearly have 700 hours on Mercy. My main tip for getting more boosted damage is keeping your right click engaged at all times, and just left clicking when healing is required, then releasingLMB when your target is healed. This way, whenever someone is in range of your beam, you're automatically boosting them and you don't have to remind yourself that you need to be damage boosting. It also significantly reduces the amount of "overhealing", thus putting boosted damage in its place. I've found that one way to really urge yourself into the habit of this is to watch your game replays, which can be done through navigating to your career profile > history > replays. The way I've found this helpful is that it will highlight to you the rate at which you are healing full health allies, so in turn, when you are in games and experiencing scenarios similar to what you've seen in your replays, you'll be reminded to engage your RMB.
New Mercy here! I just started playing a few weeks ago and this guide has already helped me so much - thank you! I also saw several Mercy‘s using a special type of „jump“, it‘s not the superjump where you use your assigned crouch-button to jump up high but rather a quicker and smaller jump by just flicking the mouse/camera up quickly in the direction you wanna go to reach ledges and stuff.
Does anyone know how to pull that off or is it actually just a normal superjump? ❤
I love mercy’s pistol, i main junkrat when I play dps and it made me really good at leading shots, I had a game the other day where Ashe and pharah were fighting and with my dmg boost she’d get enemy pharah super low before dying, and on 5 separate occasions I fired one bullet at pharah which hit and killed her which made me able to rez
I like ur editing
9:31 what are your thoughts on the GA settings of holding vs toggle?
For me, I like holding now for better control but it defaults to toggle and it took a long time to correct my muscle memory. I kind of wish when I was new someone told me about it so I could have just learned that. Similar to the newer GA to target options they have since added
Hiiii Best Guide Video on TH-cam
18:57 the way Mercy spins lol xd
Sometimes, i like to play what i call Mercless, which is just me, only using the gun and only ever-resing the tank
I like being support assault types like Ashe and Hanzo but i also want to learn how to mercy or anna and understand how truly stressful a real support class is and be a versatile player who can switch to be a healer or assault type depending on what my teammates want to play as.
I am very great at ashe and i tend to be a team carrier but i wont deny the healer in my gameplays are the true team carrier.
Healers staying on the job to heal me or res me after a enemy taking me out and then sneaking up on the enemy for a good revenge kill is the best feeling and knowing my healer is a true friend.
And as a assault type i go for tanks or healers to kill while ignoring the flankers for the rest of the team to focus on.
an amazing mercy guide
I watched this vid earlier today and ended up getting to GM for the first time tonight
and they say mercy is easy
I know, right? 😂
I personally love sacrificing myself for a res, even in lost fights lol. I think it’s hilarious 😅
I like the toggle beam setting I feel like it’s a lot easier and idk why I find it so weird to hold back and press space bar 😅 but that move works and looks so clean.. in my brain I feel like pressing back while my player is moving forward, I’ll lose all speed 😅 and with toggle beam enabled i find it easier to flick a 180 and look around without constantly holding mouse 1-2. Mercy is actually fun to play just because of her movement.
if your res cooldown is on 10 seconds the moment the player dies you have just enough time to res them.
Ah yes... the panic rez... xD Thanks for the video Niandra! CHEERS I SAY! o7
7:32 I wish more dps/tank players knew WHY we do this instead of me just getting "WHY'D YOU STOP HEALING!!!!!!" in my ear after we die... Like bro... its a 2v5 and your critical hp with no game-changing ultimate... WE AINT GETTING OUT OF THIS!
Omg, that little ping trick for rezzes is so handy! Was trying to figure out why "I can't ressurect them yet" kept pinging as can ressurect earlier today lol. That being said, console is buggy as all hell at times, so my assumption for anything that isn't working as expected is that its a bug and I just move on lmao.
Great video
Sweet video
Thanks❤
Niandra is really mothering a whole new generation of Mercy mains
I JUST BECAME A MERCY MAIN THANKS SO MUCH
I wanna learn her so bad thanks
wake up babe, new niandra video dropped
13:19 this made me chuckle but it's true mercy is so stressfull if you try to be as efficient as possible. every single decision counts XD
Hi, new mercy here, ive been mainly struggling with kills and damage boosting since ive only really dmg boosted during ults and shooting during mine, but this helped a lot! I really appreciate this tutorial, its clear and to the point!
Excellent and informative video! Do you think you could maybe explain to me how to superjump rez on condole? I can only do it by pressing jump within the proper range. I can’t do it if I face my camera up (like 12:23-12:40). The rez always starts before I leave the ground or it doesn’t start at all. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. It must be the inputs. I’m on PlayStation, by the way.
hey!! did you ever figure it out?
@@hatsunemisty I actually moved to PC a few months back😊
i haven't even watched the video yet but it is already inspiring me to take a break from work just to play one Mercy game LMAO
Can't seem to fly high whenever I try to jump after a GA (GA+Crouch, which is a+Caps works for the horisontal jump though). Only manage to bounce forward or backwards. Guess that's why I'm sometimes hesitant to pick Mercy
I can't figure out her super jump rez on controller :( i can do a super crouch-jump rez if im very close, but 50% of the time it cancels bc I jump to high. Any tips?
About to try Mercy for the first time!! My sister is the best at Mercy!
I have about 100 hours on mercy but 80 of them are qp so i was trying my best but i didnt care if i was playing her the optimally but now i started playing comp and ive noticed a lot of mistakes and bad habits ive optained, part of it is i never played ow1 so when ow2 came out my friends who did play told me mercy was the heal bot hero so ive been trying really hard to use blue beam a lot more but i still tend to healbot especially when I'm panicking 😭
Damage boost people who are fighting and you can flick between the two beams if they are at full health but still being attacked which would lead to them being at full health longer than the other that isn’t being beamed or helped by supports in general, Supports are more important than some people think which is sad, By the way you can damage boost/heal Bob (Ashes ultimate),Makes him even more OP huh
I can’t seem to get the looking down and pressing jump to land suddenly on the ground during valk
I got about 200 hours on her now it took me forever to learn how to fly her now I got her imp skin I’ve been having so much fun 😁
even with 9k hours on mercy still very usefull ty
recently i've found that prefer facing target is extremely buggy for me ever since they changed the way GA works. i do prefer beam target now, it has cleaned all of my problems with GA so far!
ive always played with prefer facing target since it came out as an option, as well.
Mercy was the first character i tried to play when i started overwatch...whoever convinced she was the easiest support to player was a whole ass liar cuz i played one match and ditched her for Moira. I still want to learn how to play her
I climbed to masters 5 support queue and masters 3 open queue with mercy. But lately, I’ve been losing so many games (deranked to diamond 4 support queue 😵💫) I feel like I can’t even play her anymore, I’m usually forced to go other supports. I’ve gotten good at Kiriko so good news I guess.
but it is just a bummer knowing im doing things right, its just the climb of getting there.
I am playing mercy like once in a year, but I still clicked on this video cause of the cute picture on it
