He is our win rating and pick rating Mei now.
If Mei has GOT to go because she is a “must pick” and “op” then McCree has some pretty crazy nerfs coming right?
RIGHT?
Are y’all going to be consistent in your complaining?

I honestly don’t understand why the development team seems to insist on continually buffing him.
There are DPS who are much worse off than he is, and he gets very frequent changes.

He should have had his fire rate reverted, yes.

McCree gets a pass because he aims a lot, and his CC is really risky.

Oh really? I was just on ptr it seems the fire rate is still slower.
They already pushed the code changes to Live yesterday, and it’s different than what’s on PTR.

Pretty much.
Write guides on how to deal with the ice wall trap, that would shut them up.
A little, anyway.
Man, telling someone how NOT to be frozen by Mei as Lucio doesn’t even work.
No way I am even going to try to get people not be crazy vs her.
I think, the real answer is just mock them from here. Like, if they are having trouble with Mei, then, it is on them now.
If I was the dev team, I would have nerfed wall HP, and lowered her cooldown to make it less oppressive at the choke, but people get nailed by freezygun? Like, what can you say apart from, what the hell are you doing to have that happen to you?

Oh I was wondering , I thought maybe they hadn’t pushed it yet, good to know.

There are a handful of hero’s they love to change. I don’t know if it’s because the test teams like those hero’s, their fan favorites on OWL or what. But it does tend to be flashy hero’s that people like. Mcree is hit scan “skill hero” and a cowboy, obviously people like him.
But yeah it’s pretty sad when other heros like bastion have been ignored for years now. Then again looking at most hte other hero’s they have attempted to touch, maybe it’s a good thing? No one wants the Symetra treatment after all.
Good or bad you can’t deny after her rework New Sym is pretty much nothing like the old Sym. It’s basically a new character.
That only encouraged me.
Besides, I genuinely want to know how to handle ice wall.
Honestly, it is why I want icewall with less health and a lower cooldown, because at the choke, it is bait it out with a false push, but that isn’t a great answer.
It is too strong at the choke, but if you nerf the health, it will dumpster her, unless you also drop its cooldown so it is useful outside of the choke.
I rate the wall as “a problem”.
I will keep mocking the people who get freezyguned down though. There is no excuse for that

Im actually surprised they didn’t rework it ages ago

They did drop its health before in a pretty big balance patch.
I just think they need to do it again, but, lower its cooldown, and start that cooldown on Mei breaking the wall.
It isn’t often I think that the dev team didn’t go far enough with a hero

They want to keep her identity as a defensive hero outside of cc but her wall is best as a trap. Its tough.
its only been 1 day can we please wait a week?

Sure, nerf his primary fire CC, his self sustain and his ability to isolate and control space.
Wait, McCree doesn’t do any of that. Weird.

The wall is so much more than that.
Blocking ults, pushing Bastions above choke, mobility, cutting off their ranged support, giving the team a few seconds extra to push through choke, freezing torb turrets, blocking Sym turrets, give Rein a stop after he pins someone, delaying someones escape, giving Sym a strange place to put a teleporter, breaking LOS on things like trance…
It is a shame it is used at the choke at all
