Background of Mei

Mei, also known as Dr. Mei-Ling Zhou, is a damage hero in the video game Overwatch. A world-renowned climatologist, she was recruited by Overwatch to study abnormal climates in an Antarctic base. However, when the base was hit by a deadly storm, Mei and her team went into cryostasis as a means to survive until they could be rescued. Nine years later, Mei emerged from cryostasis as the only surviving member from her team. Upon receiving a signal from Overwatch, she built an endothermic blaster and eventually left the base to rejoin Overwatch.

Mei’s Endothermic Blaster shoots out a beam of frost that can slow or stop her enemies. Once her target has been incapacitated, she uses her blaster to shoot out icicle projectiles that kill the enemy. The blaster allows Mei to excel in 1-on-1 fights at close or long range.
