Can be in-game or storywise, but Tracer gets the number one spot in both of them for me.
She’s British, she’s energetic, extroverted, and overly friendly. She does NOT know when to shut up, just like her mains.
I mean, I like these energetic optimist tropes if they are actually somewhat creative, but she’s only CHEERS LUV vfilöwu9pewduijofgvbfvdwivdwizpcvüä CHEERS LUV, THE CAVALRY’S QUEER!!! hic. She then gets blown up into thousand pieces and finally shuts up.
Chasing you to the other end of the world is also making you question if your life was actually worth something for once.
Second place comes to the flying generic-tasting rice personality wise that hard forces you to counter her in-game.

In game? People on smurf accounts. It’s 2022. Exacerbated by said players who have the audacity to start talking smack for any reason or, more typically, no reason.
Storywise? All the retcons and weird lore tidbits that contributed nothing but fluff. I seriously wonder where the story would be if that one book wasn’t cancelled.

The Zero Hour cinematic. All the one-liners are super corny and bad, and the ending where Winston is like “Yes…[cliched chuckle]…Yes we are…” before everyone turns to the camera and does a heroic pose literally gave me cringe goosebumps the first time I watched it. Blegh!

Cloths on female characters, that are stuck in their butts… (gross)
Sexism, that is just there every day, because lot of cavemen clearly never met a woman in their lives…
Edit: if you don´t like my opinion, just scroll down, please. I don´t need you to explain me, how I can´t tell, what people should wear (cause I am not doing it!) and I also don´t need your insults just because I have my own view on this uhygienic situation. Thanks.

People who just hang around the forums to troll people & bash the game/devs are the cringiest to me. Like sheesh, you don’t have anything better to do?

People who try to ego mirror your pick and try to chase you the whole match only to be curbstomped.
Sombras (and any player) who immediately swapped because they’re too bad to outplay a hero they have no natural leverage over.
People who think Doom is op and want it’s rework.
Torb’s existing philosophy.
The fact people can get banned for saying the mean word to the adult playing the game.
People of XX who think they can do much going Tank or DPS…
People who don’t try on their offroles (I main DPS and I can still do quite well against other Tanks and Supports, please.)
King’s Row (Dog map, absolutely bad, insane bias)

People who start every post with “I don’t play any more” or “I haven’t played in months” as if it’s some badge of honor instead of pure cringe as we all know they are probably playing on an alt.
People that play QP as a duo with mercy pocket only healing/rezzing their mate (even worse in comp I guess).
People that work their way through the most toxic heroes - start sombra, switch to symm, switch to mei, switch to doom, etc. It’s like they just want to ruin games.
People that don’t pick their hero until after the game starts on defense, or those that don’t pick at all then get timed out, or do pick and afk, and then come back to the game and do the same over and over (QP at quiet times)
Anyone that plays bastion on any map

If you think Overwatch streamers are man children, you should see Apex steamers. They are so much more cringe, it’s ridiculous
