The 2 problems i have with Mesa are-

1. How high of an energy cost her ultimate is, especially in comparason to other channaled skills. It costs 5 times as much as most other skillssuch as World on Fire, Exalted blade and Hysteria to name a few. The only channeled ability that costs more is Banshee's Sound Quake.

2. How Mesa's kit doesn't synergize well with itself. Excal, Wukong and Valkyr have kits that make them excel at close range combat, Ember and Saryn are close range AOE casters, Hydroid and Vauban are area denial But Mesa doesn't really have that level of synergy. At a glance Mesa is a ranged frame that hates melee combat, as shatter shield will not protect you and you can't move during peacemaker. She has Shooting Gallery to protect her in Melee with its short range aoe stun but with teammates the protection will leave you depending on how many teammates you have thus it has an anti-synergy with friends. And Ballistic Batteries ability to help nuke down strong targets is limited by the fact it has a cast time that prevents it's use with Peacemaker and also while shooting or even running.
