With the addition of three new Heroes, Junker Queen, Sojourn, and Kiriko, OW2 now has an impressive roster of 35 Heroes. Moreover, all of these Heroes have their own strengths and weaknesses and one should use them accordingly. Every character in this game is distinguished by their classes which are Tank, Damage, and Support. Apart from many Heroes of different classes, Mercy is one of the best Heroes if you have just begun to play this game. She is an excellent Support class hero who is crucially important for healing her allies throughout the match. Every Hero in Overwatch suits perfectly well with one or other Heroes. Check out this guide to know which Heroes are the best ones to pair with Mercy in Overwatch 2.
Best Heroes to Pair with Mercy in Overwatch 2 – Best Match-Ups
Before diving into the topic, Mercy’s Resurrect ability is useful for all the Heroes as she can revive a dead ally. Although, the best match-ups for Mercy in OW2 are:
Pharah – Best Pair With Mercy in Overwatch 2
Mercy and Pharah are considered to be the best pair as of now. There are several reasons for that, out of which some are:
- Since Pharah is a Damage Hero, she deals some lethal blows to her enemies. Mercy’s Caduceus Staff can increase Pharah’s Damage output to a great extent making her even more dangerous.
- As mentioned earlier, Mercy is one of the best Support class Heroes because she can pocket-heal any ally. To be precise, she is capable of healing a particular ally much more efficiently.
- Pharah is comparatively slower than most of the Heroes in Overwatch 2. This makes her vulnerable to incoming enemy strikes and blows. Moreover, she is mostly floating in the air and surprisingly, Mercy’s Angelic Descent and Valkyrie ability helps her to fly too. Mercy can stay closer to Pharah giving her assistance more than any other Hero can.
Other Heroes
- Soldier 76’s Ultimate Ability Tactical Visor can be made much more effective with Mercy’s Caduceus Staff. In addition, the same can be done with Roadhog’s Ultimate Ability, Whole Hog.
- It will be fairly smart to pair Mercy with Reinhardt because he is one of the best Tank Heroes in Overwatch 2. Reinhardt can easily defend his team and deal damage to the opponents equally. No one would like to lose such character in a match by any means. However, with Mercy in your team, you can revive him for a clear second shot toward victory.
According to me, these are some of the best Heroes to pair with Mercy in Overwatch 2. If you found this article helpful, then make sure to check out our other OW2 guide on best match-ups with Kiriko.
