Jen Simpkins’ angelic demon-slaying goes unappreciated, world continues to turn

As a Mercy player, I’ve come to accept – with a strange, grim, self-immolatory sense of pride, even – my role as “unpaid babysitter.” It’s why when I get zero upvotes from my teammates after: healing everyone through a final payload push; surviving being frozen by she-Satan Mei; strafe-dodging an icicle and whipping out my pistol to ice her right back; and then shutting down an ulting Pharah (achieving ‘on fire’ status) to secure victory… I’m not surprised. But this play not making my ‘Highlights’ section, Blizz? Whole new levels of snubbery.
