What is the silliest thing you've ever been flamed for?

For me, I’ve been flamed by the enemy team for “try harding” in quick play. The enemy Genji got mad we switched to Brig + Moira. And my latest game was the enemy getting angry because we did a nano blade combo…

They expect us to be treating quick play like a glorified death match lol

I played doomfist to counter to Zenyatta who’s been wrecking us and then he personally invited me to group and told me that I should be burned like the holocaust victims. Not a fun day.

Playing Reaper. Oh and apparently not healing a Rein when I had my damn staff up his armored butt the whole time keeping him alive the best I could. Honestly how much farther do you want me to shove it up there, I can’t heal you anymore than I am. XD

Ugh… I hate when players on your own team have the awareness of a rock, and claim you’re the problem…

Such as trying to 1v1 an ANA And flaming that they “Aren’t getting F-ing healed!” When they were… slept and anti-naded before you could even go into the enemy backline to try healing them.

Then of course you have the one very quick match I had in comp once, on Numbani…

I picked Bastion, back when Bastion was still actually kinda useful… one of our Tanks went ballistic and flamed me immediately before we even left spawn… So I humored him and picked Roadhog, I’m petty sure he was Zarya… which seemed to be a pretty nice set up.

We lose, and guess what the same guy in voice chat says? The guy who sounded at least 20+

“F man, if we had an F-ing BASTION Maybe we could have done things! Are you F-ing retarded? Why’d you switch??”

Wow I had never actually reported someone faster.

Also a genji game where I had 5 blades (average 2 kills per blade, won 4 fights) in the first round (on control) but my team fed and then told me to swap because I didn’t get a blade…

Reaper and Sombra are more effective for that kind of job out of the ones I have played before against Torb’s Turret. Winston’s job isn’t necessarily to deal with turrets.

Rapid fire Trans every minute, no matter the situation. That’s what he expected.

Someone called me a “thot” once. I didn’t even say anything provocative or anything, I was just on voice chat and he called me a thot -_-
