In the first panel, she looks off balance, and twisted at a painful angle that would prevent her from putting any power into her strike, making Jason’s comment appropriate.
In the first panel, the way her body is oriented, with her torso twisted to what appears to be at least 90 Degrees off from her lower body, she seems totally off balance, in addition to what must be a very painful posture, even for some one in her advanced state of physical condition. She would also be virtually unable to put any power into a strike that way, as she would have no way of using her weight to drive the blow. No wonder Jason pointed out her lack of speed.

The dynamism in these panels is off the rails. Just glorious.
(Watch the anatomy a bit, though. Mercy is a bit Centaur in panel 1.)
Thank you so much for an amazing and wonderful strip.
