Firstly, I'm wondering how good Mercury is damage wise compared to other gods of his type. I don't wanna buy him and find out in actual play that he's not that great. Cuz I think he's a really cool concept...I just hope it's the same in application.

Secondly, When's the next patch? I don't wanna spend 1100 on him, and I'm wondering when he'll be cheaper.

Yeah I could see that might be an issue.

What about patch? When do you think he'll go down to 5500?

He's bad early game. Good mid and late game. Falls off very late game.

Second best split pusher to Apollo.

Um. So you think he's a little to uneven to get super invested in? I mean as opposed to other gods?

Um he's not for beginners. Mostly due to him being very very squishy

He's very very squishy, has very situational damage, and can suppress himself with his fling if he does it into a group. Additionally, despite having multiple abilities, you'll find him VERY auto attack reliant, so things like , Witch stone, , , and can ruin him. Basically, he's easy to counter.

He is, though, the physical form of or , in that he's built around being a duelist. He works very well with and , as well, with chain flings. I'd recommend buying him but dunno what nerfs he'll get.
