Not swapping to a role not filled isnt throwing

[Megadodo-11847]

This is a straw man (http s://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man) argument.

Not at all.

You are claiming another player ruins your fun by playing the ‘wrong’ character

I am saying that the player in question has a right to their fun same as you do. Your rights to have fun dont extend to controlling what any other player does for their own fun

Similarly, if you are in the school cafeteria with me and you are only happy if you get to eat not only your own lunch but mine as well, you have extended yourself beyond your rights

There’s a big difference between “You must play Reinhardt” and “you insist on playing DPS but the character you’ve chosen is being hard-countered by their team”.

You’re not getting that the hard counter is 1) your opinion and 2) irrelevant. If I want to play character x, and you want me to play any character other than x, I am fully within my rights to play character x.

Every player should have a DPS that they can play, a tank that they can play, and a support that they can play. It doesn’t have to be their first pick, but it’s critical if you actually want to win.

and yet, there is no requirement that any player do so

optimal - yes

required- no
