[QUOTE=Zadrave;52341192]Only issue I have with Mei is her right click, but not enough to warrant a nerf.
[sp]And her annoying voice[/sp][/QUOTE]
Her right click is a slower McCree bullet. It needs no change.
Best part about Mei is how far people will go to kill you after you've annoyed them for long enough.

Dam people are really this quick to defend Mei? She seriously needs an overhaul no matter how you put it. In 1v1 you literally have to pick her if she's available because she annihilates anything that isn't a tank.
They should toy with her mechanics in PTR, such as making stunfreeze ult only because right now the ult is just "freeze more people". You say that her secondary fire needs no change yet I've outsniped Widows with it. The difference is that it is a projectile, which means it has width and height to take into account, unlike a hitscan which is just a traceline.
Mei is fine. Can this thread seriously not go a few pages without whining over pointless shit?
Yes... That's the entire point of having a projectile as opposed to a hitscan. It doesn't need a nerf.
The only thing that needs to happen is for her aim-slow to be a linear, set amount so you don't have to constantly adjust your aiming speed.
Buff Mei
Just a correction I never said it needed a nerf, it's just annoying that she can deal so much damage with her right click at long range, when she specializes at short range encounters.
I can say the opposite with Widowmaker's assault rifle mode. I just don't get why they did these things.

So a hero that is designed to trap people into 1v1 situations. Is really good in 1v1? That is surprising to hear.

Surprisingly enough, Torbjörn is way better at long-range combat than Mei is, while also having a slightly weaker Reaper shotgun for his alt-fire.
You can fire roughly 1.5 shots per second that'll do 140 damage on a headshot at [B]any range[/B], while you have a much smaller hitbox and the curve of the projectile lets him hide behind obstacles. You won't have to reload every 4 shots, and there's no wind-up to firing.
I'm just glad so few people ever pick him.

Good aim with any other DPS > Mei freeze
McCree fucks over Mei pretty easily.
I'd like to see Mei's ultimate to be dropped in height, many times have I been on a platform 50 feet above it and still receive the slowdown...It's ridiculous.
I'd rather Mei freeze people faster than fuck with aim sensitivity. Fucking with mouse sensitivity ends up seriously screwing low sensitivity players because there's physically not enough space to move your mouse to counteract the slow, while a high sensitivity player has plenty of room to do so.
I shouldn't have to switch my mouse sensitivity from low to high just to be able to hit her if she attempts to even tap me with her spray. It feels like a borderline exploit that I can use low sensitivity then press a button on my mouse to switch to high so I can reliably headshot Mei while being frozen.
Either make it a slowing mechanic that is mathematically the same decrease regardless of sensitivity, or make her freeze faster but don't affect mouse slowing. Yeah Mei isn't some comp must pick but this mechanic is fundamentally unfair because it affects players differently due to a non-game factor.

Basically this, not only is she a good all-arounder, but she can excel at it. Reminds me of when Blizzard had their soldier dude that basically had all the weapons in the game.

Well I did destroy a few Reapers, and his area is limited to close range encounters.
At the same time what I meant was that she's got all the tools all the other heroes do and more. She can excel at close range, she can excel at long range, she can excel at area denial and she can also go into invincibility mode and fully heal. That is A LOT for just one hero when the entire point of the game is that all heroes have different gimmicks they do.

I don't know how long you have been playing this game, but this is just not true. Good offensive heroes are way better at everything a good Mei (and other defense heroes) can do, which is why you don't see her very often in high ranks. Soldier practically does everything Mei does better, besides huge area denial and wall. Her long range attack is unreliable and is also one of the few projectile weapons with falloff.

This happens with almost every Defense hero, one day it's Hanzo, then Widow, then Mei, then Torb, then Bastion, then Hanzo again...
Has anyone ever actually legitimately complained about Torb before.
torb killed me once i don't like him he needs to be nerfed
[QUOTE=Oizen;52341462]Has anyone ever actually legitimately complained about Torb before.[/QUOTE]
Specially before his most recent overhaul, now the complaints have been generally quieter tho, but I still see people being annoyed at his turret, just like with Symettra's
Junkrat's the only defense character I haven't seen having any sort of fuss around it, other than people wanting him to get buffed.

Those Reapers are bad. He's one of the best and lowest risk heroes to kill Mei with.
[QUOTE=Oizen;52341462]Has anyone ever actually legitimately complained about Torb before.[/QUOTE]
I've got a complaint. His turret's [I]extreme[/I] range and instant snap-shoot with no lock-on time are extremely annoying and make things that should be counters (Pharah, Soldier, etc) less effective. Not to suggest the turret is OP, because it obviously isn't, but it's heinously antifun and frustrating the way it currently works.
e: While we're on low-tier complaints I've got one for Junkrat, too. I can never see his traps because visually, they clip into the ground. It could be my video settings, or I could just be exceptionally blind/unaware/stupid, but it's also very annoying

That's deliberate. And even then, they're still super easy to spot.

I'd really like to write down something about my experience with this event, but you can totally understand I won't be very objective about it as of now

Is this ~easy~ mode????
Hengh, geee geeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Yeah, it's torture. Had an enemy player spam the easy mode one on a tense match, thankfully we won.

I'M #1!
;)
Why are you people complaining about Mei's gameplay when her personality is the more annoying aspect about her?
If we're being real here, the only justifiably annoying thing about her gameplay is the fact that she can contest during cyrofreeze, and that whole "wall off the choke to separate enemies" tactic.

Anyone can outsnipe shitty Widows, I've done it with shurikens as Genji :v:
