Does the height above the ground affect whether I get frozen by Mei’s ult (Blizzard)

overwatch

After playing a few games I've noticed, mostly as Pharah, that height can affect whether you get frozen with Mei's ult.

How high do you need to be to avoid being caught in Mei's ult?

Also:

  • Do I need to be above her drone that is putting out the freeze?

  • Does jumping affect how long it takes for you to freeze?

  • Does standing on a nearby object, like a table, barrel, crate, etc.,
    affect the freeze rate?

Best Answer

It's right there in the Wiki-ish. The range is 8 meters radius. Meaning you'll ger frozen if you're in direct LOS of 8 meters or less of Snowball. Similarly Reaper has 8-meters ultimate radius as discussed here
