The Downside of Battle Mercy
Some users express frustration with Battle Mercy players with YellingDolphin betting ‘that this Mercy learned nothing and kept on trying to get kills after that match.’ These comments criticize Battle Mercys for prioritizing personal glory over team success and not learning from their mistakes.
A Shared Satisfaction
