Ok let say u playing mccree ok u can hit 2 shots before u get frozen ok if she hs u u will still have 50 hp if no one is helping her mccree can be unfroze and hit her that will make her skill go up a lot but that just me I’m not that pod to say but we will see
Well, before the buff Mei would deal 50 damage with the freeze, now she deals 65 damage before the freeze.
I was thinking keep the same time to freeze, so the later.
Yeah, basically I was just saying instead of 30% Slow, followed by +2.5% for followup Frost projectiles.
To just even that all out, so that all the Frost projectiles just do 3.45% Slow, with no initial big Slow.

A while back she got a buff from having her Slows last 1.5sec, instead of 1.0sec.
When did that buff happen?
I haven’t played a whole lot of Mei since season 5

When did that buff happen?
February 2018

Thanks for the info!
Added another nerf, with a minor buff.
I thought of a few ways to nerf Mei. One idea was: As she freezes, her footsteps get louder. Making like a crack noise. Which gets louder the more targets you freeze. Another is simply add in voice lines. IE: Mei is freezing me! etc.

While at it, fix the bug that makes freeze build up even after Rein has put his shield up.
While they’re at it, they can fix the bug that resets/removes the freezing of enemies in her ultimate if a rein shatters.
55 dps added to the total freeze time makes her headshot always a one tap by the time dps/heals are frozen
Just remove the build-up slow and make the freeze trigger from a cumulative timer from her ult and m1, rather than getting more slow after 100% slowed. Makes Mei hard cumulate slow and effectively maintain distance, but also makes the recipient harder to estimate when they are getting frozen.
I never thought this day would come. I actually AGREE with one of your posts.
I feel like Mei freezes way too fast and easy.
Mei has significant impact with walling off tanks, and the fast freezes are the “icing” on the cake.

Would also make it so Tracer/Genji get used more
tracer shouldnt have an issue vs her given she can blink out of range/recall and shoot out of her range
genji…why would you ever use genji if enemy has a mei?

Some of the core heroes to Dive.
so you want mei nerfed to return to dive meta?
casue thats how the post comes off.

her spray is a beam.
even if u raise shield the beam is still going from moment u cut it off…ergo it still ticks up.
not a bug most likely.

I mostly want Mei nerfed, intelligently.
Instead of getting some dumb simple sledgehammer nerfs.
Since nerfs are coming, but I’d like to make sure the character isn’t a hollow shell on a hero, like what Roadhog got in season 5.

Here’s an idea for Mei.
A while back she got a buff from having her Slows last 1.5sec, instead of 1.0sec.
That means she gets a nice beefy 30% Slow just for landing 1 projectile of Frost on enemies, and that Slow lasts for 1.5sec
So what if they want the other way on that.
Mei
Endothermic Blaster
- Slowing effect duration reduced from 1.5sec, to 0.75sec.
- Initial Slow reduced to 20%, down from 30%
- Incremental Slows increased to 2.85% up from 2.5%
Would make it a lot more difficult for Mei to just land 1 projectile of Frost on a bunch of enemies, and effectively do an anti-speedboost to them all.
Instead she’d have to juggle a lot more, or focus on specific enemies more.
Would also make it so Tracer/Genji get used more. I.e. Some of the core heroes to Dive.
It would be better to revert the original buff back in February 2018 to original state before severely weakening like you’re doing now. The reason for the buff was pretty obvious back then, but was largely ignored.
I think this might have been a bug with the slow stacking mechanic. It put ice slow on top of shield out slow. They did change the mechanic since that video was made to only count the biggest currently applied effect, as in if you took a freeze burst and then put up your shield it wasn’t shield carrying slow on top of 30% slow, it was just whichever one was worse at that moment.

but I’d like to make sure the character isn’t a hollow shell on a hero
what u proposed would do that…
majority of heroes have some form of mobility.
nerfing her niche (and at that point anyone with mobility would not fear her anymore and a lucio would literally make her a non threat) is effectively taking away only thing she has going for her.
her dmg sucks (especially the small ammo if you use her alt fire)
her build up to cc is minute dmg even over entire duration.
she would most likely be the most boring hero to play as at that point.
she can alreayd be dealt with if you pay attention.
your changes would put her at near sym lvls.

The reason for the buff was pretty obvious back then
Because she sucked during Dive, when the meta was a close range brawl, and the current meta is a close range brawl?
No, Mei is fine. She was a throw before multi-freeze. Widow and Hanzos one shotting, doom one shot, Mccree stun/fan the hammer, and you are worried about being frozen?
