Title says it all. I think I have twice, once last night I believe, and once a few months ago.

Yes, I played with DeathMetal and he kept talking about himself in third person.

I mean, if you count my friends, then yes. Otherwise, I may have seen some familiar names, but I don’t think I can definitively say I have.

I believe I have played against a forum member. Can’t remember the match. Way back in 2017.

I know I was on a teammates stream cause he had all of us shout out to his chat.

It’s all a blur now the years went by fast.

It’s hard to tell now sometimes too. So many “sneaky” “hidden” “pants” “turtle” etc. I can never tell if it is a familiar face or just a random with a placeholder name haha

The only notable name that comes to mind believe it or not is Freeza. I saw that name in a custom game while I was waiting in queue once… but yeah, this default names make it tricky.

Yep. One of them I don’t care for so I was less than pleased… the other though, it was a really funny coincidence on Havana.

My sister and I played with Zman, an Orisa main in Rialto quite a while back, I also played against Jeesh a month or two ago on Nepal (I solo ulted him at one point because I fat fingered, I felt SO bad), about a month ago I ran into Aquamarine (yes, the real Aquamarine) in Chateau Deathmatch (he was streaming, too!), and the last forum user I played with was a month ago was Baja in mystery heroes.

Dont think so because I am on EU PC… most people here are from the US it seems.

Yeah a year or two ago. We had fun and they were a good team mate, but we didn’t click from a frienship point of view, and only played a few games together total.

I’m sorry to hear that. I usually play on console, so I don’t run into community members as often either.

I also play on EU. So it’s still possible. (Although I profilecheck every familkar name like a madman to make sure they are the forum user :sweat_smile: )

Yeah a few times. I had to hardcarry WyomingMyst on King’s row as Moira his D.Va is terrible and so are his comms. He wastes every cooldown instantly but I respect the aggression. I never said anything to him though.

“Respectable with his speech but a freak in the streets” I would enjoy playing with him
