Overwatch launched in 2016, and its quick communication system let players request help with the I need healing line, which pinged support heroes during a fight. The phrase quickly became a running joke in the community because damaged players would spam it repeatedly, even when healers were busy or already eliminated. Mei's version adds extra humour because she is usually durable and can heal herself with her abilities. Clips of different heroes saying the line are still shared as a shorthand for demanding help in any team game.
