[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;50367722]on the topic of what's OP and what isn't, do you guys think the release of the game will come with any balance changes?[/QUOTE]
I would be really surprised if there weren't, i think they'll probably be a few minor map changes too.

Mei is fucking stupid, hope she gets her heal removed.
[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;50367731]I would be really surprised if there weren't, i think they'll probably be a few minor map changes too.[/QUOTE]
I'm kinda hoping they change some of the massive chokepoints some of the maps have. It really makes it that more difficult to do anything if your team isn't as good as the enemy team. Hanamura section 1 springs to mind.
[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;50367623]Do you know how much damage you can do in the fractions of a second it takes her to turn around?
[B]her cryo freeze heal isn't some godlike ability that can be activated anywhere to ensure a second chance at an engagement[/B][/QUOTE]
It's exactly that though :v:
As long as it isn't on cooldown, you can pop it during any fight and get a massive heal while being completely invulnerable. And your wall will probably be off cooldown by the time you come out of it, giving you an easy escape route from almost any sticky situation.

there's been alot of updates post-beta recently so it's gotta have some balance changes
[QUOTE=Limed00d;50367730]they straight up ripped the bastion model lmao[/QUOTE]
It's like those "Literally the same fucking character, did they even try" pictures but not a joke.
There is NO reason she should have a heal.

Holy shit it's Final Combat 2
[QUOTE=Limed00d;50367636]dont get near mei ok just shoot her from a distance while dodging her assy fucking icicles [I]god fucking damn the icicles[/I][/QUOTE]
I actually just get really close and shoot her in the face

What can I say? Figured it would be funny if people confused us. v:v:v
[QUOTE=SuperDuprKyle;50367750]There is NO reason she should have a heal.[/QUOTE]
The heal is too strong but without the heal honestly she'd be pretty weak. Imagine being on 10hp, going into your ice shell and then being sneezed at and dying because your ice shell makes you a sitting duck. Hell it already makes her a sitting duck.

if you're careless when activating it, any group of 2+ enemies should be bodying you as soon as you are vulnerable again

Yeah, but if you're not then you get a free fight restart.
I think people like to blow the power of Mei out of proportion just because she has the power to freeze and people hate being frozen.
[QUOTE=Banned?;50367774]Yeah, but if you're not then you get a free fight restart.[/QUOTE]
only if your opponent chooses to stay and fight, they can just nope out as soon as you block up
they can also take up a position where they can guarantee decent damage on you as soon as you pop out, like I said earlier

To be fair in the right hands, she can be really mean.
Gotta love China's no copyright laws!
[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;50367810]To be fair in the right hands, she can be really mean.[/QUOTE]
Anyone can really.
I must be the only one here then who thinks she is perfect the way she is now, no nerfs needed.
She's a close range support/crowd control
At least the way I played her was, using the ice walls to separate groups of enemies and keep them from retreating while the stronger characters rack up the kills
Using the ice shield to distract enemies while someone else sneaks behind the enemy team, like d.va or phara
[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;50367759]if you're careless when activating it, any group of 2+ enemies should be bodying you as soon as you are vulnerable again[/QUOTE]
Why are we going by the assumption that you'd be careless?
[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;50367790]I think people like to blow the power of Mei out of proportion just because she has the power to freeze and people hate being frozen.[/QUOTE]
The fact that she can completely immobilize with her primary attack is what gets on people's nerves. That sort of power should be reserved for her ult. Instead of freezing players completely, she should only be able to slow them down.
Immobilizing attacks are not fun to fight against at all.
A good symmetra can be absolutely diabolic, her beam goes right through reinhardt's shield.

Honestly, getting behind Mei has little to no effect on PC, as you can flick the camera 180 degrees in a fraction of a fraction of a second, depending on your mouse sensitivity.
[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;50367790]I think people like to blow the power of Mei out of proportion just because she has the power to freeze and people hate being frozen.[/QUOTE]
I don't get frozen by mei. It's her heal.
[QUOTE=ZnT00;50367819]Why are we going by the assumption that you'd be careless?[/QUOTE]
because people are treating it as if you can just activate cryo freeze in the middle of 3 enemies and somehow escape that situation because the ability is op
it's nowhere near as strong as people are suggesting, it's mainly good for 1v1 engagements which is already Mei's specialty
it's like people die to Mei 1v1 as a character like Genji or Widowmaker and start claiming she's overpowered
A Junk Rat does good against Mei's freezing because you can just place a mine down on it and do a good amount of damage as she gets out.
In the 3 days I got to play the beta, I didn't have much of a problem with Mei.
Is it because I played on consoles?

His ultimate can actually outlast her wall, which is a good time to tell your team to get back.
