Blasted Spawn Campers

Knock it off, please. You suck all the fun out of the matches and make me wish for the good old days of LAN network games.

I remember back in those days some games I used to play had a special system that put an end to spawn camping of all kinds. The map was divided into concentric regions, radiating out from the main area the creators expected the fight to happen. The further you were away from the centre of the arena, the less damage you did. So anyone attempting to spawn camp found their weapons and abilities completely useless.

It’s been too long, I can’t recall the names of those ancient games, but I do fondly remember the delight of knowing I was safe to leave spawn without fear of being sniped by a camper.

You can push out so easily from spawn that this is a non issue. Sounds like your team was just a bunch of potatoes.

Honestly, if an enemy team is at the doors, it only takes one to die for everything else to crumble.

Takes too long for them to travel back whereas the other team is right at their own spawn.

That’s why lots of people say it’s throwing to be up at the enemy spawn.

In the words of Squidward:

“But it’s fun!”

the most common spawn campers are people playing widowmaker honestly i think it should be penalized as a form of cheating as it could force people to go behind the health barrier which if u stay behind it to long that team would gegt booted

I wouldn’t say potatoes, just nervous with a sojurn picking off their supports consistently, regardless of which door was tried.

I have had games where my team was stuck in spawn, but only in Quickplay. They don’t know how to work together and stagger all the time trying to break out.

Honestly, it’s usually very easy to break out of spawn camping when your whole team is there and work together. This is especially the cause if you give up your ult charges for some sort of cheese strats then change back. You also have the massive benefit of tons of heals from the spawn.

Furthermore, if anyone dies, just swap to mercy, rez, then swap to baptise for immortal field, then to kiriko for suzu, and back to mercy for rez.

Overtime or close to end point is a different story where you’re force to stagger.

Sure, I’ll just allow you to contest the point no worries!

Seriously dude? Pushing out of spawn is extremely easy, in fact it is detrimental to try and hold the enemy team at spawn because of how easy it is. If you’re actually being held at spawn you and your team have already lost.

And how is it a far testament of anyone’s skills when one team can’t even get onto the battlefield without being booped straight off under the spawn point???

im gonna really blow your mind here, when you in spawn, dont go toward the big door, instead, try to turn left or right and you will see a smaller spawn door

Honestly, I didn’t think about the receiving end of spawn camping. I will try to refrain but I mainly try to single out the tank.
