Difficulty 1 star Kappa.
Speaking of one star, you're on your way to yours! But yeah, they're gonna have to adjust that difficulty rating probably. I'm really loving these changes though.
Does anyone know if you have time to cast two more rezzes after pupping your ult? There's the initial one right after the reset then possibly two more with the 10sec cd's but what happens to the ability cd once the ult wears off? Does 20seconds get added to it if it's already counting down or does the cd only get adjusted after the first use out of ult?
I also like the fact the she's no longer invulnerable when using rez. I don't think it'll affect her survivability too much because of the change to her passive and it no longer being interrupted by dmg while the ult is active.
I think it might actually make her really hard to kill during her ult unless you can focus her down. I haven't tried her yet but on paper this looks like such an improvement overall.
Not sure about that. Since she would only be able to rez the Pharah you just need to kill the rest of the team. She's also no longer immune so she'd be an easy takedown at that point.
I think this make Pharmercy much more risky in the event that either one of them, or one of their teammates die since there's no "reset" button anymore. Her ult would also be wasted if used just to boost/heal Pharah so she'd have to drop down and use it on the team for a higher return. A lot more options, but also a lot more decisions to be made.
Her skill ceiling and floor have been raised for sure.

Tviq shared this on his stream and I can't stop laughing
This actually looks terribly broken after watching it in action. So, she can't rez 4 people at once anymore but she can rez 3 people over 20 seconds so it's basically the same thing AND she gets everything else they added to her kit. They basically took away almost nothing and gave her like 5 other more powerful things. All they've done is make her better and raise the skill cap. That's it.
Except that she can be killed before she rezzes them all and 10 seconds of 5v6, for example, is quite long enough to snowball the fight.
The impact of her rez has been significantly lowered since getting two picks will still give you a numbers advantage and again, no immunity while rezzing means you can kill her as soon as she does and prevent any more after that.
Note that they'll also be nerfing her damage so that infinite ammo battle Mercy isn't a better dps than the dps themselves.
Edit 1: Good Mercy player will probably take full advantage of her rez CD resetting when she pops her ult giving her up to 4 total rezzes in the 20 second ult duration. She can be pretty hard to kill while flying around and her passive regeneration does not get interrupted by damage so her being able to live long enough to get those for rezzes is very possible. I think they might end up nerfing the ult duration and/or ult generation else she might just be able to rez almost all of her team, albeit one by one.
As I mentioned above the positive spin here is that other than the back to back rezzes her ability to stop the snowball caused by picks is severely reduced and if focus fire is properly directed it could effectively be nullified.
Edit 2: Mercy and D.Va apparently don't care about your CC abilities. some bugs that will need to be foxed for sure.
