If Sombra doesn't look like Carmen Sandiego I'll be very disappointed.

In case you forgot there was a thicc russian gal with a Z in her name in TF2 as well.
[QUOTE=Dazzgrace;50956574]Why does mei crush my soul[/QUOTE]
Because you're getting in the range of a hero that only manages to be moderately capable in close quarters.

"moderately capable" is laughable. Especially if you know how to use the icicles.
Using voices can be pretty fun. Wouldn't mind other options though

To be fair the best Meis I've encountered ambush you while you are boxing another hero or slap their ult down in the midst of large engagement.
If you die to a Mei 1v1ing her, yeah it was your fault. If you die to a mei that was flanking you while you try to engage or even disengage another hero, well..

So I play a reinhardt match with an Ana 100% on point, I completely wreck their shit, do multiple quad kills, completely bully their supports, get gold eliminations, damage, and objective kills, feel like a [B]GOD MADE OF PURE GERMAN ENGINEERING[/B]
And the potg is their Mercy rezzing 3 players then instantly dying to a genji
:why:
I'm so excited for the removal of animation cancelling and Genji's triple jump bullcrap.
When the 12 o' clock is just right.

Triple Jump is fine.

I really do hope that they add an MvM styled "Second Crisis" mode or something with a variety of rampaging robits.
To explain Zen and Bastion just wave like "Eh they said nah"

Yeah I may have been understating her ability, but the icicles feel like too much of a hassle to use reliably in combat. The firing delay kind of forces you to eventually give up and save them for those dumb "freeze someone and stand totally still to line up a single headshot because you can't risk missing" moments, which are beyond counter-intuitive.
The buff to their projectile hitbox was really nice but I hope they tweak them further and the rest of her kit eventually.

I mean I'd be all about a Mei kit revamp, but the delay isn't that bad once you're used to it. You just need to lead your shots.
Sure she's overall not as good at killing as McCree, but the icicles deal solid 75 damage each. That's 150 on a headshot, which is enough to take out a Tracer or Zero Suit Dva in a single shot. And her ice spray lets her deal with a Defense Matrix-spamming Dva almost as well as a Roadhog.
Mei is capable of doing some really harsh things, and the revert of her projectile hitbox is going to allow her to get easy headshots yet again.

I was mainly stating it as a personal gripe, I just wish her best form of dealing damage was a little more instantaneous is all.
[sp]Maybe I'm just spoiled and used to the flare gun in TF2, and I subconsciously compare them cause I feel like Mei and Pyro can have a really similar play style and both need to be reworked.[/sp]

Mei's biggest issue is that she's not McCree.
Infact that seems to be a running theme for a lot of heroes.

Mei and 76 bond and form a friendship over the fact that McCree usually outperforms them.

It feels a lot like the Flare Gun, but I do miss the projectile having a downwards arch so you could use it behind cover. That thing had way slower traveling time, though. And most of its damage came from the afterburn - so it's not exactly something I'd call instantaneous.
I'm just baffled as to why Blizzard thought her ultimate was what needed a buff. That 33% radius increase makes it devastating almost no matter where you throw it.

Naw man I'm talking about those sweet 90 dmg flare crits. And I'd even prefer slower overall firing speed like the flare gun has if it meant it fired more instantly like it.

I don't get this logic of "This heroes is better than this heroe so i'll play him just because he's better than the heroe i love"
What the fuck? You are supposed to play the heroes you do best with, the heroe you feel good playing, you can do huge killstreak with any heroe in game if it's not mercy or lucio, this logic makes no sense.
Too much time i read "Hey i love X" "No sorry you should play McCree because he's better than X"
i get it, McCree is the best hero in overwatch, are you gonna stop discouraging everyone from playing their favorite character?
If you're good at a specific role, then you should also be good at countering mccree

That's not the case at all though, you'd never catch me dead playing McCree. I'm saying it's unfortunate that a character I like is, all things considered, just a weaker version of another character because they play similarly but one does it better. Characters should fill their own niche, not do another's but usually worse.

So if Blizzard tried to nerf McCree, would it mean that soldier 76 and mei would be viable like he is actually?

Break eye contact and it stops working. Its literally 76's healing field but freezing.

I literally said they should do their own thing instead of being a worse version of another character, making the better character worse isn't a good fix at all.

Most of the ults in this game, including Mei's, are actually pretty easy to waste IMO.
Not that they can't be devastating because they usually are but if you fuck up it can easily accomplish nothing

Too many heroes share the same role in this game, leading to some pretty flat upgrade scenarios.
And when the competitive scene for the game looks like this:
[t]https://www.overbuff.com/blobs/1kkFyDUcgPQ.png[/t]
People are going to get fussy over character picks. Just kinda how it works, especially in matchmaking.
You can play whoever you want, but at the same time people in OW can be pretty vocal when you pick a hero who doesn't conform to the meta.
