PS4 Tag - JMunster

Hey Everyone! Last night I ran into a stack of 5 smurfs throwing matches on PS4 Competitive. These guys are running alt accounts (they confirm in video) and sandbagging games to lower their SR. I was stuck playing through the a whole match with them, otherwise I would have been hit with an SR loss if I were to leave.

I hope Blizzard will take this evidence in and action these players. Players like the ones in the video are ruining the overwatch experience for so many other people. The cherry on top is that they talked sh*t the entire match on how they were throwing and how bad the other team was (as they themselves were giving away the match and I was sitting there wanting to win but helpless to do so).

EDIT* Removed their tags to comply with name shaming rules

While you should report them, don’t do it on here, you yourself can get in trouble for “name shaming”, it’s against the rules

What do you mean “name shaming”?

From my perspective their whole group was on alternate accounts and intentionally sandbagging. Even if their accounts above were suspended/banned, they would probably just make new ones anyways. Also I’ve got the video evidence of their behavior.

Maybe someone can enlighten me on the “name shaming” ?

Posting their battletags on the forums is consisdered “name shaming”
