Overwatch 2 Season 4 is set to bring a “revert” of the buffs Mercy received in Season 3, amid player backlash at the difficulty in playing against her. After her healing was buffed significantly, many players complained that playing against a Mercy was “obnoxious”. Blizzard has decided to backtrack on the buffs, reverting her healing to the pre-mid-season patch numbers. Additionally, a “slight adjustment” to her Guardian Angel ability will be made to keep her boosted jump under control. With the new changes, Mercy’s spot in Season 4’s meta is uncertain as one of her most powerful assets has been taken away. With the introduction of Lifeweaver, the Support meta is sure to be an interesting one.
