The only skins I didn't get this time were the Lucio ones. Which I am ok with since I don't really play him.
I really don't like the Mercy and DVa changes. I feel like all they did was bend to the will of DPS players.
Mercy's rez was fine where it was and kept firefights intense after the rez. If anything the rez could have had a little bit longer charge time and/or a smaller AOE. Valkyrie now makes her OP
Making DVa's defense matrix burn up twice as fast only makes Pharah better since you can't defend against her rockets or Missile rain very effectively. If they wanted to balance it they should have have it burn 25% faster instead of 50%. The missiles are nice but she feels more like a beefy DPS than the tank she once was.
Then again I may be bitter because I main Dva and backup Mercy and Bastion

Now I will probably play mercy since most of the fights I saw her she hid behind the whole group or was glued to Pharah so it was hard to kill her and ta da Ult time when it was nearly a wipe for the enemy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=123rPol6azQ

I played Reaper outside of mystery heroes for the first time this morning.
I really need one for Lucio, for all the times I screw up as a goalie
well, Lucioball is going away shortly, so I guess that takes care of that

I would be delighted if they got rid of it altogether, even if it means buying skins slower.

I am really excited for the Mercy changes, even if they tone down her new ult a bit
I find current Mercy really stressful to play because I never know if I should be using my ult to rez a single teammate so that I can start charging a new one, or sit on it until there's a chance for a multiple rez, and then half the time I die first or second and then I'm sitting on the rez even longer so I finally decide that even one rez before I die is better than nothing, at which point I might as well have used it when I first got it charged and aaaaaaagh
so yeah, being able to single-rez on a cooldown will be much easier on my head, and her new ult sounds way less situational and more proactive than reactive
I grinded way late last night, 6 or 7 boxes. I got a legendary in the 3rd to last box.
Old Lucio summer skin. Couldn't even tell you which one cause meh.

I think having mercy's ultimate be a heal-monster transform that still requires very active play is cool, but i don't think it needs to interact with her pistol at all
Mercy on mystery heroes is even more stressful because if you die that's it, unless you have another mercy with her ult ready. This should definitely help on that front.

She's going to be significantly broken in mystery because no one normally has the cognizance to play with her old ult properly.

I'd even be fine with the unlimited clip part, but the flying, huge damage, huge fire rate increase, bottomless clip all together are too much.
Someone upthread suggested making it a choice ult like Symmetra. I like Angel of Mercy vs Angel of Death as an idea, though I think I would just end up disappointed that no one ever picks Angel of Mercy when the team needs it.

Also fun in mystery heroes:
"Okay, my ult is up, but is there anybody who'd rather not be rezzed?"

It's basically whenever they drop the patch on Tuesday.
I buy the small things I want ahead of time though.

Yes.
I mean, I normally am, though.

"Suboptimal"
Maybe I'm just salty
mada mada
last few loot boxes were all duplicates...it's just like old times!
a purple disc emerged

I could buy the Mercy or Junkrat, but then I wonder if they'll get something new for Xmas.
Oh well.
It's now my favorite thing.
Winston has "Sorry about that!"
and "How embarassing!"
So I guess it worked out
