The spell is going to deal damage over time in an area and you're all going to have a real sour look once they tell you so.

Manatee Cannon posted:(...) either way it's annoying and not very fun for anyone that isn't the stealth guy As long as we have not one, but two Snipers that can one-shot you from across the map, Roadhog's wombo combo, and Mei's entire kit, I feel like stealth is far from the worst offender here.

Genji's dragonblade hitbox is completely retarded (and so is his deflect hitbox but that's a lesser issue)

Sophism posted:and Mei's entire kit I get that Mei is annoying when you're caught alone but she seems rather ineffectual if you're playing near your team at all. Outside of her ult and being able to pester tanks that push up too far I don't get all the hate for her? She seems like one of the more genuinely unique and fun characters on the roster and if I weren't garbage at landing her M2 I'd be playing a lot more of her.

The people that unironically want characters deleted from the game probably just need to go play another game, because they'd just reduce everything to generic shooter. It isn't a legitimate criticism to whine about a character (this is different from actual balance), it's being salty you got outplayed.

People dont like losing control of their character in a competitive game. Mei also has a high griefing potential for the people on her team.

I get the griefing thing but the number of Mei's I've seen actively trying to grief their own team is so inconsequential that you could lump it in with Mercy's who only use the pistol or damage Ana's. I think she's just got a reputation that is blown out of proportion compared to what she's actually capable of. I know you're not trying to be the voice of the masses here, but I find the whole gently caress MEI thing so silly.

Ruggington posted:it's the wall I honestly see the enemy Mei's walls help us more than harm because 90% of the time they're just blocking off a random door which forces our whole team to group up and push together. But now we're well into anecdote territory so I'll leave it at that.

I've had comp matches completely destroyed by mei because she'd wall off a tank, build ult off of them, and ult every serious push we could muster that didn't involve somebody getting picked because of the wall

Abilities which take away your ability to move feel lovely. Similar to Roadhogs hook. When all the counterplay comes w positioning to not get hit in the first place it can be a bit frustrating I think.

I can't think of any other FPS games where you get punished so brutally for not perfectly watching your step. Personally, I really like the counterplay of moving in and out of the other guy's range but that stems from a long history of footsies in fighting games and MOBA's in general. 2MB fucked around with this message at 06:21 on Oct 11, 2016 |

Walling off an entrance has it's perks but a good Mei divides an enemy team from their tanks and annihilates a push. Mei is also really good at substituting for a tank in a pinch when graviton'd or dealing with a AOE/Zoning ult if your timing and awareness are good. Mei's good but without her ult radius she'd be considered a bit subpar again because it's zoning potential would be too low.

When all the counterplay comes w positioning to not get hit in the first place it can be a bit frustrating I think. Except CC is counterplay, some characters would be nightmarish to play against if there was no CC. Positioning is a basic skill, if you're caught out you should be punished; it's a frustrating experience if you refuse to learn from it or or recognize it was your own error. And if you're being hard countered, switch.

Mei can be frustrating because of her iceblock imo. So many times ive out played her snd she is lol invuln. Grawr Genji is the cancer though. Its not his kit but how its implemented. Lol reflect everything North if the Mason Dixin. Also my sword is a football field long and hits behind and around me.

I feel like the size buff to Mei's ult was good for making it not trivially easy to ignore...seriously, prior to that change it basically did nothing unless you were playing with genuine hanjo-tier level players with no awareness whatsoever...but with the "self healing gives ult" change and her crazy headshot damage with her M2 it probably charges faster than it should.

mei's ult can be avoided just like any other ult when you hear her shouting and unlike d.vas ult if you get caught near it you might not automatically die mainly if I see a mei on another team when I'm d.va I'll just concentrate on her or if I can't, keep my distance she can be annoying but she isn't impossible

Troposphere posted:mei's ult can be avoided just like any other ult when you hear her shouting and unlike d.vas ult if you get caught near it you might not automatically die Mei's ult has the advantage of not broadcasting a big glowing icon in your opponents' HUD going "here it is, right over here" and it also can't really be interrupted the way that, say, Deadeye or Hanzo's dragons or can, I've killed plenty of Meis who got one syllable into their ult callout but by that point the robot is already in the air and it's going to go off. You basically have to be primed to run the moment you hear her say anything and hope you picked the right direction. D.Va can eat it with her defense matrix but D.Va is a pretty poor matchup against Mei otherwise, certainly not someone I'd go to for a counterpick.

when I hear an enemy mei's ult the only thing I know is that there's a 90% chance that this push is over and we lost it

dva is ok for a counterpick imo because you can distract her long enough for her to kill your mech and then as soon as you're out get some distance and melt her with your pistol that's usually what I go for. not ideal but at least it keeps her off the rest of the team
