Looking around the DB and VSBattles communities, seeing this fight pop up a lot. And every time, people always say the same thing: "Medic is terrible in combat! Mercy is so much better! She wins easily because *insert clearly made up scaling bullshit here*" And so here's me response to those guys: Shut up, you're wrong. Medic wins and you know it. Don't believe me? Just look at the stats.

Mercy Weapon Stats: overwatch.gamepedia.com/Mercy

Medic Stock Melee: wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Bon…

Medic Syringe Gun: wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Syr… (Note the 0.1s attack interval)

Medic Crusader's Crossbow: wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Cru…

Medic Stock Medigun: wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Med…

Medic Health: 150

Mercy Health: 200

Medic Regen Rate: Approx. 3 HP/sec (after 0.8 seconds of not taking damage)

Mercy Regen rate: Approx. 1 HP/0.5 sec (after 1 second of not taking damage)

Now tell me how Mercy wins in ANYTHING other than health! The lower damage of the Syringe gun is irrelevant because of how much faster it fires and how quickly it reloads. The Crossbow's range is almost as good as Sniper's rifle, which can hit a target clear across any map. And the bonesaw has a surprising amount of range as well.
