How else will she build walls?

(I really like that list of changes, though I'd agree that a slight decrease to aim move speed would be good too; not 50%, but noticeable).

Lets Build the best mei team?
Reading some of those comments about Mei on Blizz forum, would it be too much to have the spray stop movement based abilities? Genji can't dash, Tracer can't blink, D.Va can't boost, etc. I don't how broken that would be though but it seems like a natural buff you can give Mei without changing too much about her.
I also think her right-click could benefit from a slight damage buff and less damage fall-off, it's not hitscan so it would harder to kill people like McCree used to.

Hitscan mei would be hilarious. You're basically creating a mini mccree except tankier, more mobility options, more survivable, and with one of the best utilities on defense.
Mei (and Bastion/Torb lol) is so misunderstood from a casual viewpoint, it's sorta the same thing when people complain about grapplers in fighters because they deal so much damage off of one move.
It's best to really just ignore that, these characters under-perform where it matters, casual players will learn with time as they get better at the game.
On Sym buffs again, someone on the forums mentioned her shields being percentage based (Tracer getting 15 shields, and Roadhog would get 60 if it was 10% of your HP). I'd still rather a rework here than keeping her crappy shields, I want something more involving and it's hard to keep track of who needs a shield after the start of the round.
I hope they don't cop out and give her a healing ability, she is meant to be support character that doesn't rely on healing.

Zenyatta: Needs a slight Discord nerf. Either lower % or put it on cool down.
Mei: Change her alt-fire to a lobbed snowball (think Zarya bombs) that don't damage like the icicles do but inflict a very slight movement speed penalty and cap your maximum speed (i.e., it counters a Lucio speed boost). Maybe I'm crazy.
Hanzo: Have Sonic Arrows stay active until you fire another one.
Torbjorn: Alt-fire on the hammer insta-upgrades turret to L2 at the cost of scrap (you still have to hit it with the hammer once though).
Symmetra: Remove the cool down on turret building.
Soldier: Un-nerf the poor guy. There was no reason to screw with his spread in the first place.
Junkrat: I'd like to see Riptire be a little less squishy. I would actually trade slower ult charge for more tire HP.

I still find it funny that i can escape dva's self destruct on the payload by crouching out of LoS right next to the payload.

Are you on PC? I'm rank 64 so I'm happy to give you the boost so you're playing with rank 50 ish players, that would probably be better than rank 40 players right? I main Lucio and Zenny.

everyone add me pls! I have a mic and I'm always looking to group up for that sweet bonus xp whether its qp or comp!

Play McCree and take their fun away from them haha
I find Reaper has a fairly easy time against Genji. As long as you predict the deflect, you should be fine.

Calling it now. Guardian Angel will lose it's target requirement and Res Teammates will have a personal 2 second shield that if shot at will charge Mercy's ULT.
Hyyyyyyyyyyyyype
it's pretty crazy. I noticed that as soon as they have a really good Zarya, it's a struggle.
While I don't have a mic, I will be able to hear you perfectly through the sound channel. So tell me what you want, and I'll do it.

I'm Anne#11112. I can do QP, but for comp I prefer to stick to solo q.

From what I've seen in this thread there aren't a lot of Australians on psn.
tfw you're three seconds away from losing the match, your whole team wiped out and rushing, and you manage to land on the payload, giving you overtime and the win.
;u;
What's your PSN?

No one keen to group up on PS4? Thought this would be a better time for it than usual
What's your PSN?
Yeah it's slim pickings. Been trying since launch with very little luck.

Both are easy to counter with Winston, the true nightmare is a good Pharah and you have no sniping skills to counter with McCree or Widow.
It's their game to make and maintain. Why should anyone else have the final word? You, pros, or anyone else disagreeing with design/balance choices they make and them being ""wrong"" are not mutually exclusive concepts.
that happens sadly, had a leavever, had a guy who'd emote just before he'd get a leave, and had a guy who would pick symm and afk in base cause he didn't get his hero today, some ppl are like that
Because some people know better than them, that's usually how it works in other good games? I mean, do you seriously believe yourself when writing those words? They don't even have an icefrog.
Genji can easily outplay winston sadly. Once his leap is on CD he can't do much.

That would make Symm kiiiiinda nuts, since she could literally throw down turrets as fast as they get put down.
I still say that her, Mei, Bastion, and to a lesser extent Hanzo can't really be fixed with standard buff tools; tweaking damage, cooldowns, hitboxes, or even range will either make them OP or useless, without a ton of inbetween space. They need full-on reworks, IMO. Especially Bastion, who is in this weird state of being a righteous pubstomper and a total nonentity in high-level play.

Sudden death is gone in season 2, no reason to complain about it anymore.
So yes, they have been listening to the players.

Just played against a Soldier who was either the best I have ever played on console or they were using a mouse adapter.
I'm salty so guess which I think it was.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
An easy buff for Symmetra not making her have to stop to plant the turrets. She does this awkward little stop to plant the turrets. Letting her move freely while planting turrets would certainly feel better gameplay wise and be a buff.

it was .5 lower. but now i've done changed so it's all better now. still getting those amazing kills with zen lol.
Adding you guys if you want to do some QP/Comp. I mostly play QP but I wouldn't mind some comp if I'm making any actual progress.

A pox upon everyone who chooses Mei, Torb or Sym in comp.
Unless you're in the top 80th percentile of that hero, your hero sucks and you keep costing us the match. Just stop.
