Thanks for reacting to our video! This was one of the favorite Overwatch videos we made back when we were getting started on YouTube and was quite the nostalgia trip watching it again with you and your chat.

I remember playing with a Mercy and going into a fight she went "Alright if you die, you guys know the drill. Die in a body pile."
We were like "Yup"

[crowsader]

for anyone who is curious, the reason flats was complaining about them showing certain clips is because a player named Dreamkasper was on the team who was caught trying to fly minors out to have sex with him.

It’s criminal that we don’t have a moth mercy skin

[shirokun]

I wish mercy got an owl moth skin like brig got a goats skin lmao

I remember the early 2016s when I just picked up OW,

I was winning a qp game and I felt proud of myself (playing rein), then all of a sudden someone in vc screamed "MERCY COMING KILL HER", I was so confused and then I saw the cp suddenly fill with 5 player models,

We proceeded to lose, and then I started maining Mercy for the next 5 seasons kek

[bigfudge]

The thing I miss most about that era of Overwatch was being able to play, Mercy, Lucio and Zen together. Doing that now is borderline throwing.

I used to play mercy in ow1, it was pretty broken, even before moth meta. You could get a mass rez every team fight if you were healing and dmg boosting enough.

[DJLDJ]

I remember getting games of 2 mercy mains arguing over who should have her 😂

[gerronuma]

I kinda want the old resurrection back in some random throwback gamemode because it was so stupid.
I have like two core memories of those days when I accidentally got a 5 man res by botching my flight to a Pharah and ending up on the ramparts in Eichenwald, and another one where I got caught in a reaper ult and smashed the button to do a 1 man cause it gave me invulnerability for 2 seconds.

I've probably said "Kill the Mercy" more than any other callout I've ever used. It's still really annoying to have teammates that cannot/will not shoot at her. Hopefully they lower the damage and heals for the whole cast so that Tank actually feels like you're playing a Tank, so tired of having my large health bar being dropped to zero at the same speed as everyone else.

[KngHoward]

Those stats they were shown in the video weren't actually stats provided by Blizzard. The community gathered and made those stats and posted them to the subreddit with a breakdown, back when profiles were public. I used to spend my time reading all of those breakdowns back in the day after every patch was released. It really gave you a good idea of how changes affected the meta. The guy who made them ended up being picked up by Blizzard or maybe even OWL and we never got anymore of those beautiful charts.

I started playing in season 7 right after moth meta was killed. I remember thinking "Mercy feels like she should have a rez cooldown on her ult. Rez doesn't feel like a big enough part of her kit." And my squad mates were like "NO NO NO GOD PLEASE NO"

[TheDeadMansResurrectedRobin]

As a mercy player whose been playing since season 3 of overwatch 1... mass rez was fun to be the team getting rezzed, never against.

It's a nice memory but I'm much happier with my spectator ult with chain dmgboost/healing

[FAYGO_FIEND]

I started overwatch2 like 8 months ago, so happy I never played against old mercy. I’m also a tank main.

[diogo_d]

Oh! So "Moth Formation, Go!" came from that?

[demifolk]

The timing was very tight but you could actually get 5 rezs off in the initial iteration of moth mercy. you would rez, ult, IMMEDIATELY rez after. Rez again after 10 secs immediately off cd, and then finally get one more off at the very end. Its a bit difficult to do, but if you can then you would get a 5th rez since the reduced cd CARRIED OVER when the ult barely ended.

You would usually only get 4 because it wasnt often you could get it exactly right. Mostly cuz ur first 2 rezs had to be right next to one another (which actually isnt that uncommon to happen. But because the cast time was instant, it really wasnt that hard to do. This became impossible once they gave rez a cast time tho

[noahsarkhive]

i still remember the old mercy-lord of the rings meme, where mercy comes running at the walls from helms deep like the orc, and everyone screaming to shoot her and mass res made the wall explode xD
(sadly i have been unable to find the meme clip for years. it made me chuckle evertime )

[RealWorldGaming]

Ah yes back when Mercy had play of the games

[questionable_live]

Yeah I get how mercy players feel but I won't lie coming from Overwatch 1 to 2 dealing with the most average Joe mercy is so much harder now with the addition of the easier super jump. I never had to deal with that too much in my plat lobbies back in the day cause it was a tricky bug and now I just see it everywhere.
