General Strategy
- Guardian Angel is an extremely useful and versatile ability. When activated, Mercy will fly towards the targeted teammate, whether they are alive or dead. This allows her to reposition easily to anywhere in its long range.
- By default, this ability will auto-target whoever is currently the recipient of Mercy's beam. However, this can be changed in the game's settings.
- G.A. has an extremely fast cooldown, but you should still be careful when choosing a target, especially in the middle of a fight.
- If you find yourself flying towards danger, you can quickly press the key or button used to activate the ability to stop it in its tracks. Another way to solve this problem is jumping at the end of your flight to fling yourself past your initial target. This is sometimes called "slingshotting."
- G.A. should be used most of the time as a positioning ability. Good positioning as Mercy is absolutely crucial, and G.A. makes this easy.
