Mei build, powers, and items – Overwatch 2 Stadium

by

An effective strategy for building Mei in the Overwatch 2 Stadium mode transforms her into a top-tier damage dealer with minor tweaks to her abilities. Cryo-Freeze, which is crucial to her performance, takes on a more significant role and becomes a potent tool that not only boosts Mei but also disrupts the enemy team significantly. Moreover, it amplifies her powerful ice blaster, allowing it to reach farther and pack a harder punch.

Our Overwatch 2 Stadium Mei build breaks down how to do that with the best powers and items.

Overwatch 2 Stadium: Best powers for Mei

Mei is an independent hero with strong initial damage capabilities, and many of her powers enhance her already powerful abilities in additional ways. Although her abilities related to Blizzard are useful, we’ve decided to emphasize her primary fire and Cryo-Freeze because you’ll find yourself utilizing them more frequently. Coulder can turn Mei’s self-healing into a disadvantage for the enemy team by enabling you to disrupt their formations and continuously harm weaker foes. Cryclone slows enemies, making them easier targets for the boulder and for your allies. Frost Nova works effectively with Coulder and even on its own, catching opponents off guard when they camp out, waiting for Cryo-Freeze to end.

As a gamer, I can say that Extendothermics essentially boosts the range of Mei’s primary fire. Frankly, with its potent impact, it doesn’t require much else to make it a valuable asset in my gaming arsenal.

  • Coulder – Cryo-Freeze encases you in a rolling ice ball that can knock enemies back and deals 10 damage on contact
  • Extendothermics – Endothermic’s primary fire extends by six meters
  • Cryclone – Cryo-Freeze spawns a mini-blizzard that slows enemies
  • Frost Nova – When Cryo-Freeze ends, knock back enemies and deal 60 damage

Overwatch 2 Stadium: Best items for Mei

For Mei’s collection, the design aims to amplify her weapon strength and resilience, subtly enhancing key abilities as well. Prolonging Cryo-Freeze duration ensures Mei’s safety, but it also empowers her to cause more chaos during movement and to slow down opponents effectively. The extended duration of Ice Sheet provides cover from the enemy’s line of sight, thereby granting your team additional time to reorganize or recover in critical situations.

  • Meicicle – +25 health. Cryo-Freeze’s duration lasts for 25 percent longer
  • Ice Sheet – +50 health. Ice Wall’s duration increases by three seconds, and its health is doubled
  • Custom Stock – +five percent weapon power and +10 percent ability power
  • Talon Modification Module – +15 percent weapon power
  • The Closer – +20 percent weapon power. Critical hits reveal the target for three seconds
  • Multi-Tool – +five percent ability power and +10 percent cooldown reduction

Overwatch 2 Stadium: Best normal items for Mei

Initially, focus on boosting Mei’s attack power, as this can be achieved with the first couple of standard equipment pieces. The Plasma Converter serves to maintain Mei’s performance when the Cryo-Freeze is on a cool-down period.

  • Compensator – +five percent weapon power
  • Ammo Reserves – +20 percent max ammo
  • Plasma Converter – +five percent weapon lifesteal
