Remember to log off whenever you see me playing

Am I the only one who is physically unable to play this game, let alone this hero, in the first few games of the day? Somehow I always do some bullshit like this until Im warmed up 😭😭😭😭

Diamond support my ass 😑

Anybody hate Mercy pocket as well?

Edit: I'm not complaining about the hero design or players who play Mercy. Not saying I can't aim or I suck either. I'm just saying that dmg boost makes me feel stressed out and I don't like it and I wanted to see why and see who feels that way too.

Hey guys, Diamond DPS player here (main Pharah, but play most others too). Am I the only person who DESPISES being damage boosted/pocketed? I'm trying to see whether I'm crazy or there's other that feel like this. I see and hear soooooo many people who absolutely love it and manage to utilise it to the best of their ability, holding W down main and just deleting squishies.

Whenever I play something like Pharah, Echo or Ashe, for example, I find a good sighline/angle and start doing my thing. Then, suddenly, I start glowing blue and it feels like Mercy is crawling up my ahh and literally telling me "YOU ARE BEING WATCHED AND JUDGED NOW, KILL SOMETHING!! QUICKLY, OR I WILL IGNORE YOU THE REST OF THE GAME!!!" And I've played Mercy, I know the satisfaction of the dmg dinks and assists when the DPS does damage. I know that's what they want from you.

Then, once I get a few, she does not let go and keeps spamming "GOOD WORK!!! YES!! JA JA JA!!! SPLENDIDDDD!!! Am I crazy??? It feels like someone who likes that stuff has a praise kink or something...lol. Or I find a sneaky angle or go flank the backline on the DL, and all the enemy sees/hears is a blue-glowing DPS with a moth above them... we will probably both die, and our team has a singular lone Ana getting railed the entire game. And I feel so bad tho, because 99% of Mercy players are so nice and wholesome and good at their hero... but like... LEAVE ME ALONE PLS 😭

I mean... there are games where we all troll, feed our brains out and/or can't kill anything. Or games where we have to play a little more scared/passive... but the dmg beam feels like a demand to stop what you're doing and go tf in. And if you dare to not kill something, you receive no more love. Like that one teacher who obviously has favourites and everyone else is like a liability.

Sometimes it also feels kind of unfair to the enemy team - I want to earn my kills by myself without cheese abilities and be proud of them.

This may be a personality trait though, because I'm not a person who particularly enjoys help and being watched/judged like that... plus clingy things ick me out. It's like... pls let go of me!!! go kill something yourself or smth!! I am not a trash player, but whenever im dmg boosted, I feel like one. Every now and then though, I see a DPS players go like 'NO' whenever they're dmg boosted. I feel that.... but why is this like that?

At the same time tho, if the Mercy never even dmg boosts me the whole game for whatever reason, I feel dismissed and hated hahahaha. It's such a weird thing. Anybody else???

I load into a game and see this icon combined with some ridiculous level like 200+... what do I think to myself?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elaborating on the 2nd tier; It's such a rare sight, that it feels like they're ancient, ominous entities summoned for battle... I don't trust it. Like, what are they capable of?? What do they do? Will I survive?? Why are they here? What do they want??

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes:

- excuse the mid photoshop hahaah, i just rlly wanted to make this (yes it took very long and I hope ppl find it fun)

- my opinion (Diamond3), but please discuss in the comments :)

- I'm a golden banner Mercy and Moira... guys let's not kid ourselves....

- If you're already golden on the new heroes, you scare me.
