Mei Build Guide “A-Mei-Zing!”

Mei is a Tank who relies on various types of crowd control to mess up the enemy plans and some peculiar forms of self-sustain to survive longer during team fights.

• The moderate Slow provided by Snow Blind can be used to slightly increase the chance that Blizzard will connect and that Icing will hit enemy Heroes from a good angle.
• The high but decaying Slow provided by Icing must be used to drastically increase the chance that the Stun at the end of Blizzard will trigger.
• Avalanche can split the enemy team by pushing some enemy Heroes away, even behind impassable terrain.
• After you aggressively get behind an enemy Hero by using Icing, you can push them towards your team with Avalanche.
• If you catch 3 enemy Heroes with Avalanche, you can follow the snowball with Icing to be in range for casting Blizzard as a follow-up to the prolonged Stun.
• Ice Wall can be used to split the enemy team by putting in Time Stop some Heroes and fighting the others.
• A well-timed Blizzard—exactly 0.5 seconds after your Heroic Ability connects—will always Stun enemy Heroes affected by Ice Wall.
• You can use Ice Wall behind enemy Heroes to block their retreat or in front of them to stop their engage.

Mei is a Tank that excels at punishing enemy Heroes who lack mobility to play around her Slows.

She has access to powerful Heroic Abilities that, when having a Mage in team, can be used to make scary combos. That said, Avalanche and Ice Wall are already strong on their own, both for engaging and for peeling. With a bit of creativity, you can make powerful tricks with them.
