Overwatch: 9 Jerk Moves You Need To Stop Doing
9. Ana Boosting Your Own Mercy
Ana, the motherly Egyptian sniper/healer, is one of two characters added to Overwatch after the game's initial release. Her ultimate ability is a nano-boost that turns another friendly hero into a temporarily terrifying whirlwind of death, reducing damage taken and increasing damage put out. With the right timing it can turn a fight or win a match.
Unless Ana is being played by a jerk. In which case, her nano boost is likely to hit the person who can make the least use of it. Step forward Mercy, the game's dedicated healer whose pistol is typically a panic tool.
When Ana boosts Mercy, the Swiss Miss finds herself empowered to deal damage she can't really do. A boosted Mercy burns bright and hilarious, running around spamming pistol shots in an attempt not to waste Ana's ultimate, even while the rest of the team begs for her suddenly-absent healing stream. And the Ana player laughs at the bedlam that ensues, because some people are just terrible.
