wew. Also I recently been able to finally play OW with a good ping due to some wizardry. I have a shamefull number lf hours on mccree but competitive has been tempering that with me forcing me to be usefull as other heroes.

I like to necro dead threads… but I have an actual reason to awaken this thread! That is I need protips, mainly about Sombra and Mei, what strategy should I use and when it's the best to use them?

It's almost been a year since this game was released.
There is going to be a anniversary party, there will be a GOTY ver. of Overwatch (hopefully like origins edition but with new shit) and shit like that

Sombra I wouldn't play unless your healer or tank is confident they can solo heal/tank. She's pretty darn difficult to play (especially since any damage stops hacking) and her damage is mediocre. I would say just remember that you can hack while stealthed to abuse that to shut down characters like Genji or Reinhardt who rely heavily on their skills. Also remember that EMP removes barriers/shields so it can be used to counter a Lucio Sound Barrier.

As for Mei, what separates good from bad ones is how they use ice wall. Most people just use it to block off choke points, but it can be good for blocking ults (namely D.VA) and trapping people in. Since she doesn't actually do much direct damage unless you can consistently land headshot icicles she plays more like a flanker (much like Pyro from TF2). Running straight at people and trying to kill them only works on those who have no escapes or terrible aim.
