Just use Lucio's blast to shove her stupid ass off the point and off the map.

Wait, lucio's pushback affects his teammates?
Not when's she's frozen though is it?
Only if the other team has no Pharah/Junkrat/Roadhog/McCree/Lucio/Zarya. Or if they're only sending 1-2 teammates at a time due to lack of coordination. Really the best solution to a solo Mei on the point is sheer numbers. She can only really attack one person at a time, and she doesn't do well with explosives. But yeah against the right team you can be there all day every day.
That works on like one map right? And only when she's not locking herself away fro you by alternating her abilities. I've seen Mei turtle up alternating full duration cryo heal and locking herself behind a wall into a corner of the contested area.
No to both
Winston is probably the best koth hero in the game after Lucio and well, McCree (because McCree is just great in everything). I think when Winston clicked with me was when I started learning when to create chaos with him and when to stay back/tank with him. I see him as a tank/disrupter hybrid. He's also great against all the squishies and does surprisingly good overall damage when you are in a big enemy crowd (because his gun damages everyone). It also helps that there are many koth maps where you can push enemies off the cliff with his ult.
In payload I generally think Reinhardt is the better choice but if the enemy team has a good Widowmaker and/or a lot of squishy characters then Winston is a great choice again.
Yeah I had to decipher that one. Maybe he used his push to put the opposing Reaper back in front of Lucio's Reinhart shield which allowed the Lucio to safely shoot the Reaper dead.

Ilios is really easy to knock people with Lucio. So is Nepal. For each of those maps 2/3 variations allow for easy push backs. Lijiang isn't quite as easy for me, but it still works.
There's a reason he has like a 150% pickrate on KOTH.
Also because it's tough for squishy healers to survive KOTH. Lucio is basically a necessary pick if you want healing in KOTH.

Oh yeah, I thought he meant he pushed the reaper so that the reaper can kill behind rein's shiled.

I don't take teleporters anymore unless I see the Sym putting in work

All I see is that D.Va still best girl.
When you misfire Pharah's concussive blast and it pushes a Reaper mid-ult into your team and you all die and lose the game.
I did the same thing, but with a junkrat mine. Was PotG >_>

A lot of bad Syms put the teleporters in really obvious places or try to use them as turret bait, not to mention the trolls. Unless the Sym is shielding and melting, using alt fire to keep people at bay, I don't take the teleporter.
How can you tell if someone has slight aim bot assistance? Even yesterday people had great difficulty fighting me one on one as Tracer but in some games its like they know where I'm going before I blink. I fought a VERY good Tracer once and even they were not this accurate.
Do they bust out the bots when they start losing? Had a match with a group that wasnt too hard at first but they busted out bastion (my group was not organized so that was bad enough) they attached Mercy to the bastion and hid, tried to kill the Mercy but she was hitting me with almost every shot despite moving wildly from side to side even as I was blinking around her and as I said before it was like she knew where I was blinking to before I got there. I got revived there so I didn't get to see the kill cam.
We were not steam rolled for most of it as we got the payload half way through the map then suddenly everything went to hell. It was a group game, maybe they were just off the first half of it but they were using the same guys the whole way through so I don't know.

Basically this is what I am talking about. Turtle, build wall, survive for ten seconds then turtle again.
Also I get the fan art now of her just freezing people and point blank blasting them in the face as she just stares at you dead eye. Have had it happen to me and been doing it a lot tonight. Just stands right in front of helpless people.

I meant I pushed the enemy reaper behind a friendly Reinhardt.
I did kill him but he took out half the team so...

She needs to see the faces of the people first up close just to feel alive.

Yes. Yes she does.
I mean, if you're trying to 1v1 Mei and you're not a McCree, Zarya, or Reaper who knows what they're doing, you're gonna have a bad time. Fight her from a distance or switch heroes. The turtling isn't THAT good.
A small portion? He one shots all offensive heroes, all defensive heroes, all support heroes, and Dva when she's outside of her mech. I the time it takes for the whole hook to play out I can take a bathroom break. The heed shot after the hook is easy to line up.
serious had a group do 6 soldiers was awful and i leave, to queue into another group, i end up again against the same group now doing 6 meis, fuck that, no, there needs to be a limit even in quick play, this is all kinds of stupid
this is what's going to kill this game if this is allowed, people are fine with 1 annoying character not 6 of them

Oh, I guess PSN was just balls to me.
Edit: lol @ Junkrat
I love that the dude cosplaying as Junkrat has a doughnut pool float that is modeled to resemble a tire. And we need Reaper wearing a Hawaiian shirt & straw hat (and wielding super soakers in place of his shotguns) as an alternative costume.
I'm hoping someday we get alt costumes for everyone that are just completely absurd like Hawaiian Vacation Reaper.
Middle-aged executive Reaper
Fuck
I can see someone doing a 76 cosplay of that actually
We're sort of there with some oddities, such as Mei dressing up as a fighter-fighter or Soldier 76's stunt rider outfit. But I would also like it if fans could vote for what costumes could be incorporated into a future update.
I got an epic...of 150 coins fml
Hey, so I'm trying to find all of the costumes that come with alternate voice lines or other subtle changes. Here are the ones I know of so far:
Okami Hanzo - different voice line for his ult and the dragons become wolves
Valkyrie Mercy - talks about Valhalla
Devil Mercy - "Heroes never die...for a price."
I assume the palette swap of each of the above costumes has the same effect, though I am not positive.
Are there any others?

I'm hoping we get Halloween Costumes.
I'd love to see a set of winter holiday and summer vacation ones too.
