What do you do against a good mei

General Discussion
1

They seem to hit shots despite me strafing and do insane damage so that I get 2 tapped. The slow and freeze permutations make it even harder to play against.

I genuinely don’t know what to do against Mei players in competitive (Masters-Grandmasters)

I would suggest a long-range/flying character. Perhaps Echo or Phara wouldn’t be a bad choice?

3

I play support (Ana mostly) and the other support was Juno so I did not have many options. Their pocket Cass made it more difficult and would probably destroy pharah too

With Mei’s you usually want to be someone with mobility so you can flee/reposition quickly. For support I would suggest either Juno, Kiriko (her cleanse would be helpful as well against a Mei), and Lifeweaver. Or Moira

Pray to her master, Slaanesh.
And weep if she doesn’t answer.

Type CCP sucks in chat and watch the mei ragequit.

Offer her pie. The thighs must grow, and if there are no sweets to consume, then your soul will have to do. :plate_with_cutlery:

Mei uses ice to fight, to win you need to melt it. Which means you need heat. What gives you heat ? Climate change.
Therefore to win against a good Mei you must say Hello and Thank you to ChatGPT.

Lifeweaver for helping teammates in range of her ult. He can get away from her pretty well too

Lucio/Juno to speed up your team so she misses those giant icicles more frequently

Zen orb make her misjudge when to freeze herself

My go to pics for each role against a good mei are

Support- Brig/ Illari
Inspire procs on spawned objects like me is wall, shield blocks freeze and flail knocks her out of her ideal range, Illari also has a good knockbacks, pylon keeps the team up even if you’re getting freeze focused and you just shoot her in the face

DPS- Cassidy/ Venture/ Pharah

Venture and Pharah have access to mobility and knockbacks to keep mei out of her ideal range, Cass has less mobility but higher fire power that you can use in combination with flash bang to just punish her right after her block ends, her hitbox is just big enough for flash+fan to reliably kill her

Tank - Zarya, Orisa, Hazard

Zaryas obvious, Orisa and Hazard have tools to zone out mei and knock her out of her ideal range, Hazard relies on you being able to land your shotgun shots though so if u can’t aim go Orisa and be sure to keep her javalin spin instead of the shield perk
