If you know you have no chance against a Brigitte in close quarters, then you should consider avoiding those places when Brigitte is there.
Besides, most close quarters aren’t the main route. The main route / area usually is open in which you are exposed from multiple directions, both close range, and long range.
Lastly, Mei’s CC is, believe it or not, the most dangerous CC statistically speaking.
Have you looked up how long it takes to freeze an enemy? It’s 1.5 seconds if you get each hit. As an addition, during the freezing, the enemy slows down so aiming gets easier over time. Once frozen, the enemy can’t do anything for 1 seconds.
Let’s say the average freezing takes 2 seconds, that would mean you have just 2 seconds to either kill Mei or escape the battle.
Brigitte, on the other hand, has an instant, close-range stun ability, making you incapacitated for 1 second and having 6 seconds of cooldown.
After she used her ability, you have 6 seconds to either kill Brigitte or to escape the battle.
If Brigitte’s skillset is overall braindead then, by your logic, Mei’s skill set must be way more braindead.
However, you believe that Mei’s skillset is better than Brigitte’s one. That would contradict the logic…
