Let me make it simple and easy: a buff to her secondary fire would make her a lot better. increase the speed and the dmg. as an ex-mei main (ex ps4 player), she could really use a buff like this. then i’m pretty sure she would get picked more often. she’s one of the least picked characters in all overwatch history. and we all know that blizzard “really cares about balancing the game”. so i think a buff to her secondary fire would be enough.
She would become too strong with that proposed buff in my opinion.
She would become more like a widow then one shotting people down
she seriously need a buff like that. at least increase just a little bit!
nobody uses her, and that is a HUGE problem! and as far i know, blizzard is all about “”"“balance”""" right? so they have to buff her!
she can already one shot ppl in middle/close range. Even afar if she hits something its strong. So I dont see why we would buff her second fire. And I have played a lot of mei myself.
Mei is a situational pick on certain maps, were she can split off pushes with the whole “divide and conquer” tactics. She recently got some buffs, and that has improved her situation, but increasing the damage on her right clicks will make her too strong. Like I said she would become like a Hanzo / Widow one shotting people down from range.
This week in GM Mei was picked more than Reaper, Sombra, Soldier 76, Torb, Bastion.
In Masters Mei was picked more than Reaper, Sombra, Soldier, Bastion.
At Diamond she was picked more than Sym, Sombra, Torb, Bastion.
Considering she was designed for certain situations she is getting picked more often than some heroes in GM that used to be part of the meta at some point, like Reaper and 76.
doesn’t matter when/how she got picked. go to this site: overbuff dot com/heroes
i still think she needs a buff. even if it is just a little bit. her last buff did not improve her current situtation.
no need for a damage buff then, but at least a speed buff should suffise.
She is situational but even for that she ain’t picked much, i honestly think she needs some more utility, i would look at her ultimate tbh.
Mei is good at her job.
And heroes with any form of cc are good atm. When contesting something shes just the best. And thanks to her pierces enemies and freezing them faster its really noticed. When contesting you atlest slow everyone you hit once with primery fire for 1.5 sec on top of freezing multiple people and for longer.
Mei might not be good since no one is playing hog that much and in general heroes she counters. But on a choke she can shine.
I think its way to early to hit her with another buff.
