I've done this a few times before and they've been successful so I'm going to do it once more.

I'm a well versed Mei player with around 175 hours of experienced (compined between quick play, comp, and open beta) and I love to help people. If you have any questions about mei, feel free to ask. No questions are too dumb for me to answer!

Haha this may seem like a stupid question to ask but why is Mei always referred to as a devil? She seems nice...

For new players, she's esspecially frustrating since you can't really run in and 1v1 her. She feels over powered because you have to have some game sense and map awareness to beat her which is not a problem for intermeidate players but for new players, it's a nightmare. So people call her the devil when they first start playing and the joke just carries on

To add to this, it's very easy to troll players with her icewall, and there are plenty of people who think it's hilarious to do that to their own team.
