WHY Evil Mercy Mythic Skin???
i seriously do not understand who is in charge at Blizzard HQ. Mercy is designed as an angel and she's adored for that. Releasing yet another evil themed Mythic skin for the 5TH TIME IN A ROW on the most angelic hero in the game is beyond my comprehension.

She already has the Devil and Imp skins for evil theme, which are extremely underused. Because most Mercy players don't want another bad girl. They could play Moira for that if they wanted to.

Congrats, You had 1 chance of making me re-install this trash and earn 10 bucks off me. And You threw that away.

Wrong I am a mercy main and I am 100% getting the new skin. Your opinion doesn't translate to others good day.

The theme is Mirrorwatch and it makes sense to choose her for the mythic because of her lore, name and design. As a Mercy main myself I'm actually happy she's getting an evil cosmetic because she has very few of them, she already has enough girly cosmetics.

She got evil looking skin in 1st Battle Pass, and the Zombie Nurse skill looks evil'ish enough. Witch could also be considered evil, and the 2 i already named. She has enough evil Mercy skins, and many of them are good, especially Witch.

Snow Angel Mercy was pretty bland and they could've made a better one. They could've made a skin with rose quartz theme since she said in the Cupid Romance spin-off that rose quartz is her favorite jewelry. Flower-themed, aqua-themed, so many other awesome ideas. But no, lets leave all originality and lores aside and make a FIFTH evil themed Mythic skin in a row. FIFTH back-to-back. Literally 7 out of 10 Mythic skins are evil-themed. Just rename Mythic tier to Evil tier at this point.

i guess its always Halloween at Blizzard HQ the same way its always 1st April when they have a big announcement.

Her only evilish looking skins are Seer, Devil, Imp and Zombie compared to the multitude of feminine, cutesy or sexy skins. I'm happy Blizzard has chose her for mythic personally, and brownie points that she gets a 5th evil skin to her collection. She'll end up getting another girly skin next season or so anyway so it's not that big of a deal tbh, I'm sure there'll be a skin out of the millions she already has that you'll eventually like.

I'm sure they're absolutely reeling from the lack of your £10 investment, devastated, gutted and truly heartbroken.

If anything, I'm surprised Mercy mains aren't elated about having a Mythic given just how popular she is pick wise. Seems like the developers love Widow x Mercy, wonder why that is.

I wish they make her mythic something cute too :/ Like fairy or similiar to pink mercy.

But I have no problem with evil skin for her, but this one is ugly, like really really ugly :/
Not feel even evil but robotic, it would feel more with robotic theme battle pass.

And she look like mystic moira/reaper lol.

I think a better question here would be : WHY NEW MERCY SKIN?

She gets a new skin literally all the time, worst hero in the game, useless pick, might aswell be a 4v5 if u got a mercy in team. Stop making damn Mercy skins...

I've expressed how happy I am, I'm grateful actually that Mercy gets a skin. There's too many Mercy mains complaining that it isn't cutesy but they should be glad we're at least not just getting any skin but a mythic at that; compared to Zarya and Baptiste who has received next to nothing since the launch of Overwatch 2. My own community is pretty annoying I'll admit.

Because despite her being in a bad state for support, she is still one of the most popular characters in pick rate likewise to Kiriko.

Honestly, I thought the Mythic was pretty fantastic. Fits the theme of Mirrorwatch really well.

Might even start playing her more myself but I've always had an issue with going into battle Mercy mode.

I think so too, they chose the best hero to be the mythic for the theme because everyone always regards Angela to be merciful and good so seeing her be evil for once is nice. This battlepass is my favorite so far, I'm excited to play Mercy more in season 10.

What issues do you have with going into Battle Mercy mode? I've personally trained a lot in those Mercy boxing customs to swipe in like a bird for melee hits on low enemies, it's pretty fun.

The issue of doing it too often lol.

I prefer Lifeweaver, Baptiste, Brig & Ana for general play. Moira if the enemy comp is dive heavy.

because Overwatch isn't your Waifu anime game is about fight and fight again with mature girls personality, maybe play Neptune if you want cute anime girl.

also most people who very nice are sus so this skin is suitable.
