The Mercy 'Hero Mastery' Looks Terrible.
Granted, I'd have to play it myself to know for sure, but what they've showed us so far looks extremally disappointing and uninspired. They introduce 'Hero mastery' by saying its a way to learn/ improve at a hero or learn a new one. They then proceed to show parts of Mercy's 'Hero Mastery' which involves the following:
- shooting bots 90% of the time
- walking around obstacles/ walls with nothing to fly to, just walking.
- And flying in a straight line (with no direction change mid GA) in order to, get this...shoot more bots.
How exactly is any of this suppose to help you 'learn the character'? I feel like, 'Mercy Parkour' is a better 'Hero Mastery' at this point. I feel like there is a lot of missed potential here. Imagine if her hero mastery had mercy parkour elements along with sections where you have an AI team that you have to dmg boost and heal properly in order to defeat an AI enemy team all while utilizing your movement to avoid fire and things chasing you down. Oh well, I guess, a girl can dream. If you got this fair, thank you for reading my rant, I appreciate you.
