Overwatch: Ranking All 25 Characters From Worst To Best

13. Mei

If there's one Overwatch character that can completely ruin your day, it's Mei. Despite not looking like much of a threat on the surface, the hero's ability to freeze enemies in place before popping them off with a well-timed headshot can wreak havoc in the right hands.

The character is admittedly difficult to use and takes a bit of time to get a handle on, but when put in the hands of a great player Mei can completely turn the tide of a match.

That said however, there's nothing worse than being on the receiving end of the hero's fury. Being repeatedly frozen or having to watch as she freezes the whole of your team and casually picks them off is as heartbreaking as it is frustrating, resulting in most players holding too much of a grudge against the character to even give her a shot.

But they should, because once you get the hang of her abilities, Mei can be one of the most invaluable members of both an attacking and defending team.
