General Strategy

  • Resurrect is Mercy's signature ability. When activated, Mercy will revive a single dead ally within very close range. They will be returned to full health at the position where they died. The revived teammate also gains a brief moment of invulnerability, during which they can move but cannot attack or use abilities.
  • You should always prioritize using Resurrect on a tank or your other support, but if you cannot safely use Resurrect on them, using it on the safest teammate is a completely valid strategy.
  • It may also be in your best interest to use Resurrect on a teammate who has their Ultimate ready.
  • Resurrect should only be used when you know you can pull it off safely. This is usually done behind natural cover, a shield, or a particularly large teammate (like Roadhog).
  • Look out for enemies with powerful abilities that can interrupt your Resurrect, such as Brigitte's Shield Bash or McCree's Flashbang.
