I’ve seen a few threads about good 'ole Tea-Bagging today so thought I’d weigh-in.
What is Tea-Bagging?
Crouching over an enemy you’ve just killed repeatedly.
What’s the point?
It’s generally to show ‘BM’ or ‘bad manners’ to your opponent.
Is it a strategy? Surprisingly, yes.
Often an enemy that receives the Tea-Bag (especially after being killed in a ‘cheap’ fashion as deemed by the community: McCree = flash+FtH, Junk = mine spam, Moira = dmg ball+rmb) gets rather angry and generally wants to ‘kill’ the tea-baggers to get revenge.
I’ve noticed enemies will single you out (even when they should be focusing on other things) to try and kill you to ‘return the bag.’
So…?
I recently read a post by a GM on the forums that said something to the effect of "Tilting your enemy can be a viable strategy."
I’m not suggesting you t-bag every enemy you kill but in a tough game and especially after a tough-fight you win, a well-placed, slow and sensual bag may be just the thing to throw their Genji in to rage mode and win you the game.
This is a good way to get an enemy to get angry, and play worst.
You can add a little joke on him if he fails, to get all his team to target him, throwing guaranteed.
D.va should be allowed to crouch in mech. And it should do damage.
Walking into an enemy team caught by your Zarya’s grav and literally tea-bagging them to death while spamming “I’m number 1” would be the ultimate tilt
if i got owned by someone, 1v1, no solo ult, i will respect a good tbag…
on it being a strategy, if you show weakness in match chat, i will focus that person, because it showed thats annoyed…and maybe i can get it to tilt and play worse or even leave.
If I get tea bagged it means I screwed up and got owned.
For people like me tho when I get bagged I consistently have a burst of ‘god-mode activated’ so if you tea bag someone who isn’t insecure and uses losses and failures as the driving force to improve, be scared lol.
Although that’s gotta be like .0001% of the ow population, I actually feel weird and alone in my school of thought sometimes
Exactly my point though! It makes enemies sometimes focus on you (and yes can actually make them concentrate harder) but their attention shifts slightly and that’s a huge win for the ‘bagger.’
