Mei’s icicle falloff

Is a joke, right? We already have one obnoxious RNG projectile one shot class in Hanzo, why do we need two?

Why do people need to complain about F-tier heroes becoming slightly better?

To be fair, it’s not “slightly better” it’s pretty dramatic.

But I’m not convinced yet it makes her overpowered either. It does definitely feel a little out of place though when you suddenly drop to critical health and the only thing around is a Mei way off in the distance.

“hey blizzard can you fix the mei bugs that are keeping her from being a serious pick?”

“We made her better.”

“So we won’t get stunned out of our abilities anymore and shot through our walls?”

“We made her better. Shhhh.”

I’m sure the only characters in the game are baby D.Va and Tracer.

How is a projectile RNG exactly? How about players pay attention to where they’re walking and stop claiming that being hit by a projectile = RNG/Luck.

The enemy players can sometimes aim. You should learn to strafe. These aren’t difficult concepts to grasp and master.

People seem to have it in their head lately that projectiles = spam. Because it’s entirely impossible to spam hitscan weapons…

While hitscan can technically be spammed, projectiles by nature have a lot more potential to be spammed than hitscan. Their potential to do damage lingers after they are fired unlike hitscan.

Also to be fair, certain heroes have been absolutely dominating so I welcome such a change up. Let’s see what happens.

I think the primary issue here is that she has no fall-off damage anymore, and can spam 10 shots in a row without having to reload. She’s essentially Spamzo now, but trades off a small amount of damage for CC.

It’s also clearly impossible to aim and predict with the magical projectiles. They’re either RNG/Luck/Spam or have broken hitboxes.

The enemy always hits me but I can never seem to hit them so it’s clearly the mechanics that are bad and not me.

it’s not an issues. It’s welcomed balance change. Mccree also got stronger and he’s mei counter, use it

Funny, when Zen kills someone at long range it’s “skill” but if Mei does it’s “spam.”

This is also true, but it is also their intended role in this video game.

And yes, they can be and are spammed, but you will notice difference between someone who only knows how to spam and someone who is accurate when they need to be. Someone who only spams will not win you the game so I don’t really see why are people bothered.

she doesnt 1 shot you tho. its more in line with mcree than anything.

It does 1-shot Tracer.
