Almost every game have a Ice character with ice weapons, like Sub Zero, Glacious, Samus with Ice beam, etc, etc.
I want to love Mei, but she is just boring. I mean very boring. She is the Ice Queen of Overwatch, but her kit is just very unlikable.
Mei should get Sub Zero’s Ice Ball. A long range attack that Freezes target in place for a few seconds.
How about Ice Puddle? Make enemies slip and slide for a few seconds.
Mei is like a ghostbuster character with very short range attack, and she’s boring.
These forums already hate Mei enough as it is. I doubt making her more annoying would be well received here.
Some players hate her, but if blizzard could make her more fun, I believe alot of people will play her.
Fire Vs Ice
Scorpion vs Sub Zero. You know what i mean. Like call out Torb.
Mei is known to be a devil.
She is annoying, I never player her but I like her kit.

She’s trash, that’s why you’ve never player her. She’s very boring for a Ice character/hero.
It’s not about whether she is trash or not. It’s about whether she is annoying to play against. I’m not against a rework for Mei to move her to tank. I’m just saying that adding more stuff to her to make her more annoying (such as a long range freeze like you suggested) wouldn’t go over well with most people on the forums.
… sounds to me like you’re not playing her correctly. … are you under the assumption that her M1 + headshot is her only function?

Crouch, forward, LMB for an iceball?

being frozen always feel unfair in games but I think mei is getting to a whole new level. With her wall and ice block you can’t even kill the damn thing right away.
Thank you for your opinion. Which is nothing but that: An opinion.
IMO, having played games for close to 40 years now, Mei is one of the best designed characters I have seen, and IMO she is one of the best designed OW characters and also one of the most fun to play.
Unlike insta-killers like Widowmaker, Hanzo, Doomfist, Roadhog (with combo), McCree (with Combo), she will actually give you a possibility of counterplay. Alot of heroes in the roster have an escape ability, which should make the encounter not too traumatic for them.
If you have no escape ability, or it is on cooldown, then you messed up. Just as you mess up walking around that corner, into that Widowmaker sightline, from which there came a red tracer through the air a second ago, if you had paid attention. The difference between Mei’s killing compared to others, is that hers is slow. Often it can be just as inevitable as that insta-kill, but so is life - maybe a miracle will save you, like Mei having to reload, just as she wants to fire that icicle through your head? Remember also that with that time comes possibilities, not only for you, but also for your team to intervene.
Mei is a very, very fair hero.
Mei boring? That’s the last word I’d use to describe her. She is fun as hell. Wall has like 1000000000 different uses. I think she is masterfully designed. When I see people want her changed/moved to tank I wanna scream nooOoOOooOO!
Ripping people’s head off with her ult? [censored] yeah! (Insert picture of ‘evil Mei’ here, the forum won’t allow me.)
All Mei needs is for them to delete her, *#$@^ ^$%&^ **^&(&^$% wall!
But seriously. She’s fine. 
I LOVE her wall, my fave ability in the game by far.
