Just got walled in spawn by Mei

Now you have another hero to pull you back to spawn.

Lifeweaver

What a disaster! Never happened to anyone before and yet again! Did you report that mei for racism?

Mei is a one-time troll and despite what everyone that plays this game seems to think, the spawn usually has more than one door.

Report, move on.

I always report that crap.

As a mei main myself- I HATE those type of mei players. They give us a bad reputation.

Grip has lock-on which wall does not, requires one button press instead of 2 to 3, has 5m longer range, can easily pull players off locations like high ground where wall struggles to be placed with a disruptive effect, grip can’t be walked out of whereas in most scenarios wall can be walked around, grip can’t be scaled by allies with verticality while wall can, grip can’t be destroyed whereas wall can be destroyed by the enemy, grip can’t be cancelled by Life or most allies whereas Mei can cancel wall instantly after placement to negate any effects of a bad use, grip can pull enemies from the sky while wall has no impact on them, grip can consistently ruin plays through normal unintentional bad use while wall often requires deliberate trolling for that level of disruption, grip is used predominantly for pulling allies, the use case where it can inadvertently sabotage the team, while wall is not used primarily to shield allies, the use case where it can sabotage the team.

The mechanics aren’t really comparable to be honest. Don’t get me wrong, grip should be like wall. But that would require the addition of a cancel or undo option - just like wall has. In fact wall effectively has up to 3 depending on context.

Fun fact: Mei wall is what convinced me to buy OW back in the day. I saw it in a video and thought it was so cool for something like that in an FPS.

cool pun initially unintended but I’m leaving it

Uh…what?

Read my post, that was not my point xD
