what goes through these peoples brains

i'm talking about the people that come in dead last on a losing teams scoreboard and then cuss the rest of the team out for losing lol

like what were you doing the whole game bro?

Playing Deathmatch during a Capture the Flag game?

TheMythicDawn · July 2018

no we were playin chaos ball and came in 2nd it was a very close game - but when we lost the guy with 700 points chewed the whole team out for losing when everyone else had 1500+ points

just thought it was funny and bit strange for last place guy to blame everyone else on the team for a loss

He may have felt bad about how crap he was and it made him feel better to call other people out. Not a great strategy for feeling better about oneself but a strategy nonetheless.

Always funny when this happens. Another good one is when people *** about no team work yet they run off on their own without waiting to regroup. In my experience this is usually some rogue Stamblade who sits around waiting to steal kills on low health targets and probably thinks everyone should be there to support their kills.

mSorc did it the other day. We got pumped by a premade. I was on 5-6 on my 1 day old vet stamblade, he had 1.

Him: “[snip] team” at the end.
Me: true, you did nothing
*left*

Whispers me: “nice kill steals”

The irony was totally lost on him....

I’ll also never understand ppl that leave early when losing

[Edit for censor bypass.]

Oh and people who never join up with the team and just snipe from base. Had a guy doing this - was all *smh* but said nth because what's even the point?

My favorite was a Chaosball game a week ago. I was the only person in the team going after the ball--they were in the middle of the map doing who knows what. When I fought the group carrying the ball, my teammates were not there. When I grabbed the ball and ran with it, my teammates were not there. When I made it back to our spawn point, and was defending myself against other groups trying to take the ball from me, my teammates were still not there. This wasn't a one-off thing; this cycle of events happened three times, throughout the entire match. And never did I see any of them anywhere near the ball.

At one point, one of them wrote in chat that I should stay with the group. Right, because the group was doing such a great job of identifying what the game objective was.

Unfortunately when running with PUGs, you'll always have the teams that just want to deathmatch regardless of the objective. It's frustrating, especially in your case when one of them actually called you out for it. That would set me off.

This happens regularly.

On a similar note I have often had players in Domination who only try to cap flags and literally won't help you fight even if you are on the same effing flag. Had this sorc repeatedly stand on a flag with me while I was fighting another player but not cast a single heal or damage ability and just run off to another flag once it caps when I'm still fighting someone(not a tank) at that flag. These guys make you wish you could team kill, especially when you are up against a team that is always rotating and peeling for each other.

Healer here who got stuck alone in group chat (because one of many chat bugs) with a super charming guy who proceeded to talk about how trash we all were while constantly using me as an LoS and standing BEHIND me (conal heals bro) and then complained that I didn't get any kills once the match was over. Punchline, he was terrible and built like a paper doll, which might explain him using me as a damage sponge.

Moral of the story: If someone tells you they're super awesome, they rarely are.

They're just mad because they didn't get the carry they were looking for. I see/hear bottom bois doing this often.

Flip the switch or catch the worm.
