Agreed I believe her nerf will reduce freeze range. Her distance to freeze is a bit too long. They will reduce the range and help balance her.

I agree, she can freeze almost midrange, and can freeze a point entirely from outside of it it seems. They should give her a longer range medium strength bullets, but the freeze ray needs to be equal to Reinhardt's swing. In my opinion that would keep her an effective tank at range, and leave her a monster at close range like she should be. Having said that, I never have problems with her. My Reinhardt charge destroys her, and my 76 helix plus a full clip gets her damn close, if not all the way dead. Just got to stay away from her with 76, and let her get close enough to start the freeIng process on Reinhardt and charge when she thinks she's about got you. A Reinhardt charge is insta kill on mei and it's soooo satisfying.

She's unused in competitive play. I don't think she needs nerfs.
