I have a theory as to why Mei generates so much hatred; (full disclosure, I think she's shit tier even when she PTO)

Its all about agency. The bread and butter of video games is choice and consequence, progression and reward. Overwatch and by extension all FPS games share a flowing quality that is not normally usurped until death. A sudden, jarring end to a high-tension and frenetic exchange with other players is expected, but the helplessness of being frozen in place as you desperately try to kill the Mei coming directly toward you only to be frozen when she is at 10% health goes far beyond just intellectual annoyance. I feel as though it is more of a reflexive denial of your inputs and the instant loss of agency that really rubs people the long way. There are plenty of reasons to remove her from the game, but the most paramount would probably be the fact that she contravenes the main tenant of Overwatch from its inception. Fun. Mei isn't fun to play against. Personally I don't find her challenging to play- and I dont mean that as a means of being reductive of others' use of her, but she is usually dead weight on any team. I am buttmad btw.

The wall is disruptive for both your own and the other team, especially if the Mei is bad. Getting flanked is certain death unless you have an escape ability.

People usually don't enjoy being CCd.

Mei is a 100% CC based character in a fast paced shooter. Her main CC combo also ends in an instakill. It's easy to avoid by not being in range, but even a good player will sometimes just screw up and get frozen and die.

It doesn't feel like she did anything skillfull or impressive, it feels like pure bullshit. It's also not fun to get walled off, it's not fun to have to kill her twice and wait 4 seconds for her to become vulnerable, it's not fun to get stunned for 7 seconds because you don't have mobility and got clipped by her ult before you managed to get out.

She is the classic Blizzard frost mage archetype. A character that revolves entirely around CCing and taking away your ability to act, but also gets insane damage by freezing you (in this case in the form of guaranteed 150 damage headshots, able to OHKO basically everybody.

She needs a redesign. As she is right now Blizz will never buff her because she is cancerous to play against and people don't want to play against her, even if she legitimately needs buffs because she is awful.

Presumably the tourneys are attended by the literal best players that have decided to participate, while this does not preclude the fact that the very best such as yourself would be at home polishing their rank 100 hanzo, the problem of herostacking is evident even when the most capable players are faced with it.

>>
>>345094835
Hell yeah, dude! Status effects (especially immobilizing ones) have always been one of my biggest fetishs. Fun fact: You remember those plants with the kind of floppy, wavy bulbs with the stingers that do absolutely nothing on them in Maximo for the PS2? I was a playtester for that game and tried to encourage them to add in paralyzing stings. They actually started working on it, but the content was never complete so it got cut out and they just became mostly decor items. It's good to think that my bros are out there, getting this stuff done.
>>
>>345093371
McCree's stun is a lot less obnoxious. It's a 1 second immobilization that happens instantly, so it's like ripping off a band-aid in that its incredibly painful but quick.

Mei takes a few seconds of slowing you down to a crawl, reducing your turn-rate, basically leaving you unable to react to ANYTHING and that's before she even fully stuns you. And she even so much as tags you with her fart gas, she starts to slow you down noticeably.
>>
No shit, slowing down movement and/or looking speed is always fucking terrible. That she's an annoying fat "cute" chick is just icing on the cake.

>>345093371

Mei is one problem, sure, but mccree stun and ana's sleep are really gay, not to mention unavoidable deaths from Qs of all kinds, or shit like roadhog hook-shotgun-dead combo.

If I try to take the game seriously at all I just get mad. If I treat it like some casual game that doesn't matter, I have a lot more fun. As much as blizzard wants to push ESPURTZ with this title, it's just not a competitive game.

Treat it more like a party game, because that's what it is. Shit like mei freeze icecicle at 1 hp, or the all-time favorite "OH NO ONE GUY WHO IS WAY BETTER THAN ME BETTER PRESS Q JUST TO KILL HIM" is like getting a bad roll of chance in mario party. Laugh it off and move on.

I love Mei. She's my favorite character. I hardly ever get POTG or most kills and against a disorganized team you're probably better off playing any other character. But what makes Mei great is the ability to completely throw an organized team off their game. The ability to cut a Reinhardt off from his team and heals then freeze and shoot him dead is an amazing benefit to your team. You can slow Genjis and Tracers. Wall off sentry guns, bastions, and ults like whole hog, high noon, and 76 sights. You can charge into a group like a bowling ball after their heals. Then when everyone turns to fight you iceblock, wall, and continue the chase. Solo a Mei would get wrecked in that situation, but with your team adding pressure she can provide enough distraction to completely break down any organized team with a strategy's cohesion.

>ice wall
Painfully circumstancial. Only really good way to use it is to seperate enemies pushing on your defense or maybe blocking off an ult or bastion. Nobody does this though. Becomes a detriment to your own team otherwise.
>ice block
Usually ends up involving Mei sectioning herself off. Her teammates die and then zhe finds herself surrounded. Also many other heroes canuse the ice block to actually finish Mei off, ig a Reinhardt charge/Junkrat trap and bomb
>ult
Just like her m1, easily avoidable.

She's annoying because CoD/Halo shitters are trying to 1v1 her when she gets a drop on them. If you can get the drop on her OR you're with your team, as you should be in a team game, she gets steamrolled pretty easily.

Wasn't even mad, just impressed. People need to realize 250hp heroes can still squeeze in one last button before getting killed by FtH.

Also McCree players have to realize FtH fucking SUCKS. You only ever use it against a Roadhog healing himself to try and outdps his heal or other tanks if you have the roll available and you're in low health, you're better off headshotting them while backing away.

It felt so good Hammering the shit out of two cheeky Mei sluts that were clearly in a group.

Our team was losing hard because our Reinhardt was rather bad (Was level 30 so I guess thats normal)

I switched to Reinhardt after I told him to switch and best the shit out of this Mei's. They put up a wall in front of me and I just wated for the wall to ho down and promptly dashed into the two Mei's and pinned one. The second one I clobbered with the Hammer.

The enemy team never recovered from the pounding.

I love playing as Mei so much. So many people try to start shit with me. I have played WAY too many games defending against the payload and keeping it in one place by repeatedly dropping walls/freezing on top of it.

It's the same reason Pyro wears a full asbestos suit in the desert: To protect from the weapon they use. If Mei didn't dress heavy she'd freeze herself from the blowback.

Of course in Pyro's case it makes sense because Pyro can't be burned but Mei can be frozen. Blizzard is stupid.

Mei is not fat. She is thick, which is nature's intended body type for women to achieve maximum attractiveness, and arousing men's primal instinct to violently fuck and impregnate them. Thick is not a sign of laziness, gluttony, or higher probability of obesity, it's a higher state of physical sexiness that makes healthy men's test levels spike, so that they may answer the call of their primal instincts to slam their hips against the thick woman's plumb ass. Omega males will go for low-test / skinny woman, and raise inferior and unhealthy kids.

There is no better sex in this world than thick women. They can do it all. They're beasts, and know how to satisfy a man in any way that works most effectively and efficiently, as their body allows them to utilize just about any region of their body to pleasure you beyond anything a skinny woman ever would. Skinny women just lay back on the bed, like a sea star, and will never do anything for you sexually. They're a scourge on the female sex, and men who find them attractive just the same.

I pity those who cannot comprehend the beauty of thickness, and value the extreme aesthethicks they possess. May they find peace in fucking inferior women, but pray that they never reproduce to raise men or woman of the same kind.

Her freeze gun would be less obnoxious if it didn't slow you to an immobile craw immeadately.

Her ice block would be less obnoxious if there was either a way to force her out of it or if she couldn't abuse it to contest a point

Her ice wall can go fuck itself in general. It's obnoxious by design and there's no changing that.
>>
>>345092307
it's easier than that: she has no counter. If there was a way to remove her freeze - like an item or a support ability or some key combo or whatever - she would be fair game.

The annoyance of being crowd controlled could be applied to cod kids but it's actually nothing new in multiplayer games, the only necessity is to make crowd control not a "I win" button.

How to fix Ice Wall: melee strikes instantly break it. Forces enemies to get up close while still retaining it's blocking job. Reinhardt can counter it with his wide swing. Also just let teammates walk through it, fuck.

following up on the agency thing, both of her other skills fall into that as well. the ice wall usually hinders her team (i swear if you throw up a wall when i pop roadhog ult again im gonna fucking scream) and slows down the action, and her freeze cocoon also removes agency by nullifying the last several seconds of fighting.

i get what your saying op, and it seems weird to me, since in wow blizzard would remove whole abilities because in pvp they removed player agency.
>>
>>345092307
Don't forget that even though she can stun you which is annoying, she can also stun herself which makes her invulnerable and heals her which is also annoying especially if she was just about to die. And the ice wall which can be an annoyance for the enemy team just as much as her own team.

she's still a good addition to the overwatch roster and if anything she needs a buff more than a nerf
>>
>>345109653
As someone who loves Mei and plays her extensively, no way in hell does she need a buff.

Most of the cast can break out of it. Mei is odd to fix. Any simple solution could easily make her OP as shit.

I feel like instant freeze could be severely nasty. Maybe make it to where the amount of time it takes to get frozen is dependent on your max HP? So lower max hp, the quicker the freeze. This would at least put her into a counter flanker role which is needed since Bliz doesn't know wtf it wants out of McCree.

I'm not even a "git gud" kind of person, and it blows my mind people have issues with her.

For me, good Genjis are untouchable and good Soldiers are perpetually blowing your face off from any direction the moment you reveal a nose hair. Good Meis are still as only as good as their team, and even then they'd be better utilized as any other hero.

Mei is the Asylum Demon of OW.
>>
I agree, but there are other heroes that take away agency (mcree's flashbang, now ana's sleep dart, others I can't remember probably) that aren't as bad. The main reason I find Mei annoying is that she is far too effective for the amount of skills she takes. If you so much as graze someone with your freeze beam they're instantly slowed so that they can't escape so long as you keep freezing them; if they then don't have the DPS to kill you before they're frozen (I.e. most heroes) and someone else doesn't intervene, you have a free kill. This is obviously situational, but NO other hero barring mcree's pre-nerf FTH gets a 1v1 kill with such little skill required.

The Mei knows they didn't outskill you, you know you didn't get outskilled, it just shouldn't happen. plus there's you having to watch a chubby, smiling Chinese girl laboriously line up a headshot for the 1000 years that you're frozen

A bad Mei is a hinderance to everyone, but a good Mei can do pretty great work. As a Mei main, I find her wall best to use only when an obvious push is going to happen, or I'm in a dire situation. More often than not, I use it to escape losing battles and cuck enemies out of their ults. no pleasure greater than ice walling a high nooner, but shutting down D.Va, Junkrat, and Phara is pretty good in itself.

The real problem I see with Mei users however, is an over reliance on walling anything they see as opposed to walling flankers and targets out of group focus, and trying to run headfirst into an enemy to freeze them, as opposed to icicle sniping, and only freezing when someone comes to you.

TLDR; May can be fun to play and deal with, if the player is actually clever and not an obnoxious cunt.

The problem with Mei is natural human thought process isn't prone to think in terms of delayed consequence. Feedback on mistakes are usually immediate, and far reaching consequences are hard to understand. When the consequence for fucking up is delayed, most people will feel they got cheated even though they already had their chance to fight it.

Mei's design perfectly encompasses this. You don't actually die till slightly after you failed. So it feels like you died unable to do anything about it. The truth being you simply failed the moment you were frozen. Same as you failed the moment you didn't spot the sniper in time to avoid being headshot, or didn't account for the fact you were in range and LOS for Reinhardt's charge and got fucked for it.

You're telling this to thickfags. They're too busy masturbating to fat people to bother understanding the game.

Mei is fucking garbage. TTK is huge compared to any other character if you use the freeze combo. Otherwise you have a delayed projectile with huge damage falloff. It's gonna be even worse with the new hitboxes. Ice wall is literally useless if the other team has a character with vertical mobility. That's basically everyone. Her ult is shit and an Amped up Lucio can fucking walk through it. Her one niche is panic swapping to delay a point capture, but she's outclassed by D.Va and Tracer in that regard because they're faster and can survive longer.

On a ranked match, I screwed my team up and made us lose because I played Mei badly.

It was the sudden death match on defense, and people kept saying "soneone should go Mei", so I did. One of my star plays was accidentally walling our Bastion in, blocking his line of fire and allowing an enemy Pharah to get him.
