She's not op.

Pretty easy to kill depending on the hero.

Mccree destroys her. You just need to stop playing or engaging her as genji.

McCree wasn't even OP. He's only effective if you're a foot away from the fucker.

Mei, however, can literally stop an entire team from pushing with a non-ult ability and never lose 1v1's.

McCree needs the Nerf hammer.
Mei is shit in high-skill play.
>>339758594

Zone her out and it's like playing v. a Widow with worse damage and faster fire rate, at which point hit her a few times and she's dead.
Or be sure to keep allies nearby and SAY SOMETHING if you are fighting her.

>>339758231
She's pretty useless the moment another team mate shows up. She will wreck you 1v1, but that's what happens when you're running around trying to solo fuckers.

The only way you have a chance of killing her is if you see her first and stun her/ damage her a bunch before she turns around. If you both enter a room at the same time, unless you're Mccree with Fan the Hammer or Roadhog and get a decent hook+blast, she will get her feeze gun on you and actually slow down your mouse movements as she walks to your side where you're unable to aim, then instantly headshot you to kill you.

There should not be a class in this game that can go toe to toe with literally every other class, block off Payloads for five to six seconds, freeze herself in an INVULNERABLE FUCKING ICE BLOCK that HEALS HER, and STILL have one of the best Ults/primary weapons in the game. It is straight bullshit.

You're right, he's so not great that comp teams have 2-3 of him on their teams.
>>
>>339759938
Not him, Overwatch is INSANELY fast combat-wise.
Even a 1 second Stun like McCree's is enough to kill anyone.
Same with a 1 second freeze.
The suppress from Roadhog's Hook is also pretty bad since you can get hit while being pulled and due to 20 tick, will usually take a meat shot for 200 right before regaining player control.

Because people are attracted to women that don't look like twigs

>>
>>339759929
> Otherwise he's not that great
Literally the most picked hero in high level play and his health is normal for an offense character so that is not the problem. You're very retarded.
>>
Just nerf widowmaker, her fire rate is way too good. She should not be able to shoot until it's at 100%
>>
>>339759105
are you retarded?

Mcree has no fall off. You can repeatedly headshot people in the other side of the room.
It's the reason he counters Pharah so much. She goes in the air and he kills her in 2-3 shots from far away.
>>
>>339760098
>and due to 20 tick, will usually take a meat shot for 200 right before regaining player control
this isn't because of tick, he's designed like that you moron
>>
>>339758405
I play a lot of Mei, McCree is actually easy to beat as Mei. A lot of McCrees have an impulse to throw a flashbang as soon as they see you, before they process that it's Mei they're dealing with. So, you can just ice block immediately to remove his best defense. At that point you just have to dodge the double fan the hammer and its a free kill

Even seasoned McCrees, who know I will try this, will still throw the flashbang on instinct. Feels gr8 m8


That said, I do agree that McCree shuts her down pretty bad. A few other heroes do as well.

Moron.
>>
>>339758231
Honestly, the time in which you cannot aim while getting frozen needs to get reduced.

I straight up cannot aim within .5 seconds when she starts spraying me. If she isn't in front of me already I'm dead.

At least give us a second of aiming before we cannot aim anymore.

>>339759079
Not to mention that she's just more unfun to fight than even McCree, because at least he stuns you for half a second and you're dead and that's it.

With Mei you get slowed down, flop around helpless for a few years, then get completely frozen and watch as her fat ass lines up a headshot on you or just continues sapping your health away with her freeze gun to be a cunt.
>>
>>339760352
at max range (ie; most possible falloff) mccree's shots do 30 (or maybe 35?) damage, so you shouldn't be able to two-shot a widow, even with headshots.

of course, it takes a while for falloff to get that bad, but it's definitely there

Your playstyle revolves around ruining mine. That's why people think you're a bunch of faggots for playing her. Everyone hates anything that takes away mobility in any game and makes them helpless. This is why paralysis, freeze etc are always the most unpopular status effects in any game.
>>
>>339760713
i'm pretty sure some characters can press their escapes (mei freeze, for example) in the time between the stun ending and the shotgun blast connecting, and others can't

I don't remember ever hooking a mei who didn't instantly iceblock but I've never encountered a reaper or tracer who was able to mash the button fast enough to get away

After a second and a half you're already too slow to aim correctly.

>>339758231
She only works against disorganized enemies. Meaning that regardless of your team's assistance, she never becomes better, only worse against smarter opponents.
Any two stack will beat her eventually. Anything 3+ will steamroll her.
In her place you could instead bring a Winston, who for double the health, also has multiple targets for his autoaim cone which does more damage and builds towards a point denying ult on a very mobile character whose wall has a wide variety of one way uses instead of just being a cancel all team fucker.

I think it's literally a case of furries for Hanzo. Or contrarians who think that playing as the less edgy but SRS brooding "pained" older brother is more euphoric than playing Genji.

Notice how 99% of Hanzos have the wolf skin equipped?
>>
>>339761067
Always use them reactively to save someone, see your two shields as your get out of jail cards. Unless you have a full team to hide behind try not to do just use your own shield to charge yourself up deliberately by walking ot turret/bastion fire or whatever. Your shields are for cucking the enemy

And yeah, they are great for tanks. Zarya works in tandem with other characters and is mostly shit by herself.
>>
>>339763875
One of the best things about maining Pharah is Mei never being a problem and getting to pick that fat cunt off with ease.
>>
>>339765820
Thats because the Wolf one is basically cheating, he whispers the first second so you can use it to surprise people if you launch your arrow behind close cover, they have no time to react
>>
>>339765521
>lose 8 games in a row because I'm the only one on the point/payload
Don't worry, our shitty Reinhardt got POTG for swinging his hammer. Definitely better than winning. Did offensive Reinhardt replace Genji as the character of choice for shitters?
>>
i fucking hope they delete this unfun piece of shit. her left click can basically hit you across most open spaces that arent the main area so if a mei catches you, youre probably fucked if you movement ability is on cooldown. she requires barely any aim so its not like getting shit on by a decent widow, she just aim in your general direction fro roughly 2 seconds then headshots your ass. hes also fucking annoying as shit to kill with the ability to make herself invincible while also healing herself. Shes not op or anything, its just super frustrating to play against some fucking retard who just runs in circles then kills you.

Honestly I think Tracer is more anti-fun than anybody but that's just me

>>339758231
The worst thing about her is her fucking ice block she hides in, it shouldn't be able to block capping, it completely breaks point Bs on the Attack/Defense maps
>>
>>339766365
Tracer is great fun to fight, chasing her about, and takes some skill to actually finish off. You probably just main a class she counters.
>>
>>339758959
that is easily the least cancerous part about Mei, you flashbang spamming fuck
>>
>>339766410
It's dumb how she's completely invulnerable in it too. If you do that shit out in the open your team should be able to focus damage and kill the cunt even in the ice. Yeah you can just wait until she gets out but still, it's dumb.

The problem is it gives the defending team a free five seconds for everyone to respawn where the attacks can do literally nothing, it's insanely powerful. If it just had some sort of counter, like the ice block being movable by pushback weapons or the block being destructible just very strong

>>
>>339766784
But that's the whole point. Her kit is about going in, Not TOO in but just enough to freeze and maybe take out a few people. I should know. I main mei and roadhog. I play mei to mostly help my team with the front and side lines. She should never be in the open popping her Ice Block. Its meant to be a quick save in case to much damage is done and this is why you need to be with your team because they can back you up if you do Pop. This isn't the case most the time and is pretty hard to survive with her. I love mei as a character but her kit doesn't do well in high skill play when its all about Really good aim and range play.
>>
>>339761086
I dont think any character is OP. It's literally a matter of getting good. This isn't league of casuals where you're forced to play one character all game. I can LITERALLY beat most McCrees as Zenyatta. Discord orb into 1 - 2 headshots easily kills the fucker before he can get close.

Really. My biggest tip with dealing with frozen Mei, walk behind her when she's Frozen. If the first thing she has to do when she unfreezes is to turn 180 degrees, you will always have the upper hand.

9/10 Mei's are too dumb to cancel their freeze early anyway

You can turn in the ice block and be instantly facing that direction when you unfreeze.

reinhardt ult does not go through walls. Infact if you're slightly in range but mostly behind a wall/corner you won't get knocked down from it.
>>
THAT
>>
If Mei players would just give me a heads up when they are throwing up the wall, they might not be annoying teammates. As Winston you hop into the back lines and then back to your team quick. So she is either blocking me from jumping after them, or even worst she blocks me from being able to jump back after engaging and I get stuck behind the ice wall and raped by the team.

People whine about Mei more than McRee because most heroes can't actually do anything against McRee.

Mei, on the other hand, has all sorts of ways to counter and avoid her. Getting killed my a Mei is usually the victim's fault for falling prey to a close range character, but 90% of the people who play competitive team-based games are capable of accepting blame. They have to blame everything and everyone else first

personally it's not her freeze that pisses me off its the stupid slow line up a free headshot that you get after. Takes no skill to hold M1 and jump around like an idiot then slowly line up an ebin headshot.

>>
>>339770539
I like to freeze people and then walk to as close as possible and punch them twice. If they still live I reload and try to refreeze punch again
>>
>>339767716
Yes it does you dumb cunt, Mei is still on the point just invulnerable
>>
>>339760790

>Being this retarded

There were "pro" players popping up in the beta. They were tournaments through out the beta. Why are people like you so stupid, do you genuinely think competitive players sit on their hands waiting for the release to practice?

Just like SFV right? Where no one played the beta at all, then it came out and that's when the competitive scene for it began. Right?
>>
>>339770731
In last week's Weekly Brawl mode, (where everyone has double health and 1/4 cooldown timers), I saw a Mei singlehandedly stop the attacking team from pushing a payload for at least 10 straight minutes without dying.

Except it doesn't. Once she freezes she can no longer "contest" the payload. And if she's physically on the point the payload will just glitch push her off.
>>
>>339771217
I'm talking about points on attack defense not payloads, I have no idea if it still works on those but I don't see why it wouldn't be exactly the same
>>
>>339771290
Ah. My bad friend, I read attack/defense as payload. I know it as King of the Hill, which you are probably right about. As for payload, I'm certain it doesn't as I tested it multiple times today trying to cheese the enemy team from pushing.
>>
>>339771217
You're talking shit. Go try it out. It'll take you like 3 minutes tops. I pushed a game into overtime just a few hours ago, so unless there was a patch within the last few hours that removed it, you don't know what you're talking about
>>
>all these idiots saying she's easy to kill
it's like you're so shitty at the game MM makes sure never to match you with good players who actually know how to abuse her broken set

> Just like SFV right? Where no one played the beta at all, then it came out and that's when the competitive scene for it began. Right?

The counter to Mei is to play a character with high hitpoints or armour, which is incidentially half the hero range. A freeze + icicle headshot combo to a DVa will probably leave her with 60% of her HP remaining, similar to Roadhog, Winston and Rein.

But you Hanzo faggots are not willing to understand that.
>>
>>339771489
That's interesting if that's how it works on Payload, I can assure you when actually capping a point a Mei can block it. It generally isn't an issue other than on Point Bs (Particularly Temple of Anubis), where that extra five seconds is almost guaranteed to be enough for the defending team to swarm back on the point.

>>
>>339771736

>>
>>339771489
They must have patched it within the last few days, then, because I saw a bunch of Meis doing what >>339771132 said this weekend. The payload never budged when she was there, even as an iceblock
>>
>>339771620
Mei has enough HP to freeze Rein or winston before they can kill her and then pop headshots on them while they are frozen. She may not kill them but she can ice up to get healed while they can't do shit to her, then she has full HP and does it again and kills them.
>>
>>339758231

She's based off the typical look of a chubby, unhealthy annoying Tumblr SJW. Of course her play style is going to be anti-fun.

>>339772291

The problem is several factors are introduced with tank heroes. Anything with 250HP and below, is a simple freeze and headshot kill, then you can retreat, ice-wall off and heal. With anything with 300-500HP, you need to get two headshots off to get close to a kill, which is often difficult to do. It's difficult to chain two freezes in quick succession. Often other enemies will intervene after the first freeze, since the process takes time. Many defence characters have escapes, heals or barriers.

It's just easier to target defence classes when they're low HP or when you have your team around you to assist with DPS, otherwise it's simply easier to seek out people who are easier to kill.
>>
HOW TO COUNTER MEI IN 2 SIMPLE STEPS
1) Don't move around one by one you dipshits, work as a team
2) That's it, Mei is done, refer to step 1

Again Mei is not very good. There is not much reason to pick her over McCree who for the most part does what she dus more quickly, cleanly, and at much lower personal risk. Or Zarya if you want a threatening ultimate and defensive utility.

>>339772326
You have brain problems.
>>
>>339773583
Most people don't pay enough attention to make it out in time, and so few do that she can just freeze them as well
>>
>>339771681
I think the way it works is that those forms can't help capture, but they CAN contest.

I was fooling around with some out of map stuff as Reaper in a custom lobby on Nepal, and foudn that if I wraith form on the point I stop capping it but I think I might contest it. I'd have to try it with someone, but I haven't seen how Mei interacts, I just assume it's similar.

Right. Capping doesn't make much difference either way because someone can just jump on to BLOCK, and the invulnerability isn't useful if there is nowhere there, what is broken is that it can block someone else capping while your team respawns

Widowmaker is definitely not balanced, she has way too many strong points with zero drawbacks for being a Sniper.

Not that guy but getting a free kill because he can throw a grenade on the floor and hit m2 is kind of lame.
