Time to nerf Mei’s Hp to 200 so that she fits in with the rest of the group.
In the past when we still had the ‘defense’ category and her damage was not as consistent as it is now, which made sense for a higher hp.

Now though, she doesn’t need it.
On top of having 250 hp right off the bat, she also has her cryo/self-heal, and damage. I mean, imagine if any other damage character had the same things [strictly speaking only the ‘Damage’ category’ characters and not healers/tanks, duh] going for them and how ridiculous it would make a lot of other characters. Why not add 50 hp to genji, and a self heal? Why not add it to Hanzo, or Widow? It’s time for the last 50 hp to go, because Mei’s always get away by the skin of their teeth when they really shouldn’t imo.

I can’t help but think of Reaper when you speak of 250HP hero with self-heal and damage.

Mei doesn’t actually have high damage potential for a DPS hero. Not counting for reloads she has 90DPS.

Imo that sounds like a terrible idea. You are missing the part where Mei has incredibly unreliable damage!

Mei, like Doom, Reaper and brig. Has 250 health and almost 0 consistent range. Also like them she has self heal/support.

Both Reaper and Doomfist have 250, with a sort of self-heal mechanic, but they risk more than Mei does to get it imo. Mei can snipe now basically, and her freezing means she can secure kills.

Mei really doesn’t need any nerfs, Especially not to her health. Without 250 health shes just left with unreliable dps.

Mei has pretty impressive harrasment at ranged now that her right click has no falloff. You can what? 1 shot widows with a headshot at range?

no its only 150 damage. Its also very slow and is a projectile.

Add to that she had long cooldowns and a PHAT hitbox shes not great. Shes more offtank dps hybrid than just dps

Mei is finally in a good place please stop with this bias towards cc and stall heroes.

The trade off is that these two have one shot potential.
Mei can only one shot one person, and it has to be with a headshot. She doesn’t melt anyone like those two can, and that’s why her range is better.

No headshots only do 150 damage. She can one shot a Tracer from any range. Which is fine by me.

As a Mei main, I think the only thing she might need is less healing in her Cryo form. She needs that extra health to get in close enough to freeze people, her main attack.

Personally I would even preffer her to have smaller hit box and 200 hp. I could be even deadlier.

Nope. Mei is already barely a viable pick on a handful of maps as it is. She does not need any nerfs.

Then let’s nerf Bastion to 200 and buff Orisa and Zarya to 500 (500 is Reinhardt) and reduce Hog’s health to 500 if that’s how we’re doing things.

btw I’m not asking for these things I’m just saying how this statement just doesn’t work.
