I feel that Mei's icicle shot should be changed so that it has no damage falloff, which would make her a viable sniper. As it is she's a little on the weak side right now and could really use this buff. What do you guys think?

Lets just buff Mcree while we're at it.

Honestly, all Mei really needs is a health nerf and i feel like she'd disappear from most games. If not that, either increase how long it takes to freeze someone or reduce the range of it. Mei's at an iffy spot to me.

>>340999093
Really she just needs to be able to break down her teleporter for a refund based on how many charges it had left. She has to be near it though so she can't break it down as soon as someone attacks it.
That way she can change its position every once in a while to adjust for lost ground or push her teammates up.

Mei and McCree can be outranged

Widowmaker can shred you even at close range, and shot you as you hop at her in mid air as Winston

Since you clearly are autistic I will explain his post for you

He is suggesting that buffing mcree would be equivalent to your post. Buffing mcree is obviously ridiculous because he is so strong and thus the buff is unneccessary and he is suggesting the same thing about your buff for Mei, who he is implying is also strong

He is a properly retarded character. As you say he has too much stupid shit that can get him lucky kills he didn't earn, and a character like him has no business being in a game with infinite ammo. It is utterly ridiculous he can blindly fire over a wall completely denying an area that he has absolutely no knowledge of for absolutely zero risk because he doesn't actually have to be there to do it, and he can do it forever because his ammo will not run out.

>All these people responding as if Mei is OP
Mei is strong in a vacuum but her main problem is that she is incredibly niche. She has a lot of trouble fitting into a proper comp as it stands. Because of this she has an almost non-existent pickrate in competitive games. I've been saying to my friends I think the best thing they can do for Mei at this point is just have her freeze through Reinshield. Perhaps at a much slower rate but it would at least give her something of a role. As it stands now she's something of a situational pick on Hanamura A defense.

I can't wait for everyone to ignore any points in this post with ">competative overwatch"
Yes it's stupid that it's a thing but it's a thing

>>340999842

I constantly die as junkrat if I don't observe my surroundings. Just because he's not some twitch-hero doesn't mean he doesn't take skill. With his one mobility option also being one of his primary close to mid range attack options, area control becomes a very important factor

Well she undeniably gets kills, but the nature of her slow movement and kill process makes her a limited asset to team participation.

If everyone just focuses fire on her whenever she waddles into combat she should only be able to take out a single hero at most.

Then she spends 3 minutes waddling back from the respawn, wasting more time trying to flank people and get up close.

She's a bit like roadhog in that way. Kills 1 on 1 up close- but struggles to stay in the action.
>>
>>341000150
Games that balance for their "comp scene" are almost always garbage. They breed and actively encourage the worst fanbases, citing metas and builds that ruin any chance of fun. People will get pissed that you're not playing according to their style, people will get pissed you didn't fill the role they chose to ignore, people will get pissed you are not top 5 in the world, etc.

Fuck comp scenes, this game is NOT balanced and new blizz will never be able to balance it.

Symmetra can melt tanks if she gets the jump on them.

And her charge shot is perfect for popping Turrets and Bastions. As well as area denial.

Her only weakness is that she's squishy and not highly mobile. But that's a fair price for such high utility.

Portals win games. Sentries buy you invaluable time.

I'll respond to you anon :^)
I completely agree. mei is only really strong in very particular and CLOSE range situations. When the game first came out I saw alot of people whining about how usful her and perhaps even op her abilities were. but the longer the game went on, the less I saw of her and the less I saw that opinion.
As it stands, I think she could afford to get some kind of minor buff to boost her just enough to competitive, more useful statues.
>>
>>341000643
It is a point of fact that Blizzard is /attempting/ to cater to these players, however. Whether or not you believe it should be done is another story.
>>
Mei's current biggest problem is that shes hard countered by the most prevalent heros at high level.

Mccreed annihilates her.

Tracer soft counters her.

Widowmader blows her the fuck up.

Nerf the cowboy and she becomes more viable.

Enough of this dumb meme, every character has the same walk speed except for Tracer, Genji and Lucio.

>>340999506
Yeah, I gotta agree with this one.

Area denial alone is a huge thing, especially in a game where you capture zones. He can do it relatively safely too, since he can ricochet shit all over.

What really pisses me off though is his extra shit. The bear trap makes flanking a pain in the ass, his pancake grenade is such an easy get-out-of-jail free card for him, forcing zoning and free 80 damage, and to top it all off his Ult is retarded, I dont understand why that thing has such a god damned huge explosion radius. The play of the game is almost always that bastard.

>Inb4 but you can totally shoot it down!

Sure if its a shit junkrat player, but a good ones not gonna waltz right through the main enemy push, they'll take smart routes evade.

And. AND. To top it all off, the nigga has calla dooty ass martyrdom.

It would have 100% up time. Her ult charges fastest in game unless you hide in a room with turrets hoping for someone to come in.

But the problem is the amount of skill required to play bastion at its highest level is different from genji. Even if everyones potential is equal there will be imbalance in lower levels

Mei seems like a pretty polarizing character, some think shes shit tier, others think she's broken.

It seems to me that its more of a case of her either shitting on certain characters hardcore or getting shit on hardcore. Her matchups are really polarizing. She's probably the only character that, as a Genji, I have to pretty much ignore or only annoy at a distance, there's really not much I can do up close. Junkrat, McCree and Hanzo take a hot steaming dump all over her, though, she's easy bait for me when playing as them.
>>
>>340997819

Torbjorn is the only character that gives me any trouble- primarily teams with multiple Torbjorns.

Their molten core shit just seems to force a stall in many cases. I viciously pursue Torbjorns now and try to kill them top priority (after Mercy and Zenyatta, of course)

If you just attack the turret it can always be healed, replaced, or MOLTEN COOORED. That's why it's best to just murk the Bjorn, and handle the turret after.

Not him, but snipers aren't really the best solution. They work in some cases, but when turrets are covering turrets in an intelligent manner, they cover enough radius and take enough cover to force characters to be in their radius. Best you can do is pop in and out of cover, but then attention is immediately drawn to you by multiple sources.
>>
>>341002973
Come on man a good torb will use his turret to draw fire and flush out snipers. Even if they get his turret weak or kill it he can rebuild and upgrade it in about 6-7 seconds or molten core before its even destroyed.

Being good at stopping flanks isn't the issue necessarily, I get it, we need characters to stop that. If that was it alone, that'd be fine, but its not like he's not good at a ton of other shit either.

He stops flanks, busts defenses, lays good area denial, has a panic button, and does it all from safety. And to top that off, the nigga has a martyrdom.

Like, a martyrdom isn't even that great at higher levels of play, but for fucks sake is it not the most annoying way to get killed.

The real problem with her is when she's on defense or contesting a point. Her kit is able to maintain a point for an incredibly long amount of time, enough for her team to respawn and regroup. My problem isn't her damage, but her staying power

Multitude of reasons. Tickrate is solved through the high bandwidth option. But at the game's core it's pretty casualized. The hitboxes are huge and characters have hard counters.

Maps. Right now only Payload is viable and even then there's a rule to stop the match if the attacking team reaches the second to checkpoint because the spawn is way too close to the objective. Also certain teams are just better than any other comp because the characters are too good in any situation

This here is the biggest issue I have with the game.

I like the idea that the game sort of borrows from fighting games in have counter picks, but the matchups on some characters are so unrealistically tilted that it's better to just switch.

I'd love the game so much more if matchups weren't so skewed.

This is the only game I've seen people say "hurr u have no main" as if that's somehow a good thing, and the dev's are totally 100% in the right.

Having a main is only bad if you choose to only play that character and no one else ever. Like, yeah no shit I'm not gonna choose my offense hero if my retarded team already has 4 offense heroes chosen, but you should be able to be allowed to specialize to a degree and get specifically good at certain roles without needing to switch because of muh matchups.

The team composition factor doesnt even really have any relevance to that, no matter what character you pick in any circumstance, you have the chance of running into that characters counter, and since anyone can switch at any time, it creates that aforementioned revolving door.
Youre never going to have each situation 100% covered due to team composition, so youre going to have to inevitably worry about those matchups.

Like I said, I wouldnt mind matchups having favor, but some of them are just so harsh. There's so many situations where I've outright shit on a player with better accuracy than me, simply because I just so happened to find myself in a situation where I was that persons counter.

What'd I would do is remove the freezing aspect of her M1 and ramp up it's damage a bit. It's not so much she can 1v1 most stuff it's that you're basically stuck doing fuck all until she kills you. Same could be said of McCree and his flash grenade. Making it blind instead of stun would still make him dismantle people but at least you don't get the feeling of utter futility. Stuns are a shitty mechanic in almost every game.

More importantly I'd make her unable to contest a point while frozen and able to be knocked back while frozen too. She may be a defensive hero but she shouldn't be able to stall a push by 6 people solo. Nobody else can do that.

Any ability that completely prevents the player from acting should be taken out. This includes Mei's freeze and McSkill's flash bang. It does absolutely nothing in terms of anyone's enjoyment in encountering these characters, and only makes those classes way too easy to excel at. Abilities like Zarya's black hole or Junkrat's trap are fine because you can at least still shoot.

Who actually thought they were a good idea, or that people would enjoy it?

Winston's much better at dealing with Genji.

She's fucking busted. Give her 50 less HP OR a slightly shorter range on her spray and you're golden. She has plenty in her kit to help her escape if she gets too aggressive, so let bad players be punished by it worse without punishing good players. Her slow should also have only a half more second required to freeze someone with her spray.

I think the biggest bullshit of Torb isn't his infinite range, insta locking, insta unkillable turret but his decent pistol. He can hold himself against most heroes without his turret in long and short range. Also why do his ult charge so fucking fast for no reason?

If you get trapped by a Junkrat who isn't garbage he'll either kill you with shift or kill you in a few grenades if you're a tank.

Stop saying this.

McCree doesn't have to directly hit with his flashbang to stun Genji, and Genji won't deflect it without being hit directly. Even if he DOES deflect it, McCree still has fan the hammer RNG to pull out if his stun was reflected, which would mean that they can't reflect his fan the hammer for sure.

McCree absolutely does shit on Genij, with his only chance being that he needs to have deflect, use it first before McCree flashbangs, directly move into the flashbang, and then not get hit with 3 out of 6 shots fired from fan.

If he doesn't deflect first? Stun and fan. If he does deflect it? Fan still outdamages Genji so it relies on McCree being bad. If McCree just rounds a corner and fans, he can do that shit too, you are 100% reliant on a telegraphed deflect that you don't always have to stand a decent chance against him.

Reinhardt and Roadhog should take forever to freeze while someone like Tracer should maybe even freeze faster than currently.

This. Detonating a flashbang under his feet completely removes the counterplay potential of deflect.

Same thing with detonating over top Reinhardt's head.

>McCree doesn't have to directly hit with his flashbang to stun Genji, and Genji won't deflect it without being hit directly.

Which is why I said bad McCree players. The one's who kneejerk flashbang around corners.

If youre fighting a good McCree it becomes a 50/50 because as a Genji, if you predict the flashbang, you can run forward and reflect, which will catch it.

McCree has the advantage in the duel, but it's not a reliable counter to Genji precisely because Genji has a way to stall the matchup and escape. Point being is, if youre looking for a way to reliably counter Genji, McCree's not the best pick for that situation.

Well it's literally the only hero I have problems to deal with and when I'm playing him myself the only thing that can stop me is a widowmaker
I can just take roadhog hook mccree and he is dead
I can pick mei and kill mccree
I can pick genji to kill mccree-too
But I can never kill a "good" reaper
I hook him, he fucking flies away to his team or heals himself and kills me
I freeze him, shoot him one or two times he flies away again
Even with mccree I can't kill him most of the time, while I can kill tanks with one combo
And I thought maybe I'm doing it wrong
So I played reaper for some hours
And its the same, mccree, mei, roadhog, nothing can stop me

"op" characters can't kill him but he is not too strong I see

I'm probably just doing it wrong sorry senpai

Oh, that's where you misunderstood

no no, I wasn't saying that I was good. I was saying that Overwatch is a fucking joke game where even shitters can be considered pros.
