This Mei change is proof the devs can get it right!

I mean yeah it’d be a good way but i feel like they should have pushed it even further… Nobody likes to get stunned for one of thelongest stun duration in the game WITHOUT A COOLDOWN, WITH SUCH AN EASY TO USE MECHANICS…

AND NO, IT DOESN’T MATTER IF IT DOES LOW DMG, since if you are stunned Mei and her whole team can hit your headhitbox to do the juicy dmg…

then why are you playing mei?

Mei’s entire niche is area denial with wall and freezing enemies.

it isnt her alt fire.
if u want alt fire there are many other heroes who do it better.

OW is slowly turning more and more intoa CoD clone.

nerifng everything that isnt dmg.

I’m fine in the way that it might make people shut up about Mei for awhile (however unlikely…) and stop moaning about something that has been in the game since release.
Some people will never be happy though until shes back in F tier with Sombro and Baston.

amen!!, i actually would prefer her to be in F tier so that i can start playing her again

Sometimes a nerf is meant to just reduce overall power not shift it. Not every nerf deserves a compensation buff. Even so, more alt fire.

How? Rein can actually escape the wall. The wall is balanced now

I tried the new mei and actually like it, makes the hero more engaging to play than before. Definitely need to play her a little different but you can still hard exploit people’s poor position which is why mei is so good.

It’s both.
They nerfed one part and buffed another.

Keep the ammo, just lose the pierce freeze.

Why stop there tho?
Lower the primary damage a little, and raise the secondary.
Add in more damage for more aim.
Being a mini snipper is nice, and I want to be rewarded for better aim.

Seriously, git gud already.

You lot won’t be happy until there’s no wall and no freeze, at which point there is not even worth picking up Mei in any situation.

I would like to see more nerfs to her like putting her back in a cryotube and not summoning the demon

Hey I promised didn’t I?

I always keep my promises

And she’ll probably still be top meta when OWL gets the balance changes.

I do not care about Overwatch League.

There is no word in any language dead or alive that has a word for how little I care about it.

A super computer with all of worlds leading scientists calculating for hundreds of years cannot approach the number of figs I do not give.

Mei is officially DUMPSTERED for 99.99% of us. I was right, Robot Wizard was wrong and now I am going to take solace in my pettiness which, given how all of my mains besides Ana have been dumpstered, I am entitled to revel in.

Hey, at least she won’t get banned ever.

Oh no…

K. But just sayin, I think I got a pretty decent idea where devs thoughts are at in Mei design…

You know what? You were right.

My play style is pretty unusual, so this didn’t effect me much, but, I honestly thought my play style was FAR more common out there.

I was so VERY wrong, and you were so very right.

Good call!

Who in the Hifl is necro’ing this thread?!

Since it’s here though, I suppose I’ll throw my two cents in and say the ammo nerf patch did basically nothing to her. She’ll still get a big slow off on foes in team fights while she gets more right click uptime. Doesn’t change that she’s giving a big focus target for her teammates to shoot, so in reality she’s gotten even better.
