Instead of using the full duration, it can be useful to use Cryo-Freeze in a short burst to avoid damage (like from D.Va's self-destruct) and then cancel it. Mei acts as an obstacle during Cryo-Freeze, which can prevent some abilities from going through her to affect her allies, such as Reinhardt's Earth Shatter, Roadhog's Hook, or D.Va's Self-Destruct. Cooldown triggers after the Cryo-Freeze ends. Mei can manually cancel this ability early. She will ignore most debuffs and recover health while the skill is active (150 total if the full duration is used), and the ice will disappear after the end of the duration. She will create a thick ice coating around herself which makes her invulnerable, but immobile for 4 seconds. Cryo-Freeze: Mei's personal defensive ability. While Icicle no longer has a damage falloff restriction, keep in mind that fighting mid- to long-range hitscan heroes is unfavorable due to their high damage at maximum range. 
Enemies like Tracer, Genji, Junkrat, or Pharah will be able to quickly escape Mei's attack unless their movement ability is on cooldown.
The slowing effect only influences standard movement speed, not movement abilities. The first hit will create an initial slowing effect on the enemy, which is useful to slow a mobile hero. The primary fire of Mei's weapon has travel time, meaning that she has to lead the target when firing on a moving enemy. Sticking to Icicle is a better option to deal damage. The primary fire deals little damage per second compared to other stream-type weapons. This combo will kill most non-tank heroes. Freeze the target with primary fire at close-range, then launch an Icicle at the frozen enemy's head. The Endothermic Blaster's two firing modes make a simple combo. Icicle has a short cast time, during which Mei's movement speed is slowed. The secondary fire will launch an icicle-projectile on a linear trajectory, consuming more ammo than primary fire but dealing heavy damage. Affected targets will gradually move slower, eventually being completely frozen for 1.5 seconds after taking 30 shots. The primary fire, when held down, launches a beam that will deal continuous damage on the enemy. 
Endothermic Blaster: Mei's primary weapon. Due to lacking raw killing power and mobility tools, playing Mei well is challenging. Her primary fire deals little damage and needs to land several hits to fully freeze the target. Not being a true tank, Mei can still be outdamaged and killed easily. Blizzard is a very strong Ultimate, able to turn the tide of battle when used correctly. Mei's Cryo-Freeze creates thick ice around herself, restoring her health and rendering her invulnerable, allowing her to play like a semi-tank. Ice Wall can be used to trap or distract the enemy, as it can completely block the enemy's vision, or split some of the enemies from the others. Icicle deals heavy damage when used correctly, making her a threat at both short and long ranges. Her freezing effect from Endothermic Blaster will let her win over most heroes. Mei is a strong fighter who excels in 1-on-1 fights. Pierces barriers, payloads, and Ice Wall. Using Endothermic Blaster's primary fire greatly speeds up the freezing process. (The slow effect is capped at 70%.) At 100% or higher freeze progress, the very next tick freezes the target therefore, it takes about 2.5 seconds in order to freeze. The first tick results in a 50% progress towards the freeze (also inflicts a 50% slow effect), then it continues at a rate of 20% per second (also slows at a rate of 20% per second).
