Off topic but Tbh I think overwatch 2 would be better off COLLECTING ALL the overwatch 1 things back and it’ll make the game more enjoyable

Because he brought a hammer to a gunfight. The only reason he is viable is because this playerbase has no clue how to play a shooter. Thankfully.

since when was inting=initiate

since that’s what they’re complaining about. Tank going in. Rein doesn’t have much else that people would consider feeding and it’s his only way of getting into the fight.

p sure it’s short for intentionally feeding

It is AFAIK, but considering the responses as well… can you say I was wrong?

What’s your point anyway? You wanna step up for the troll? You want to chalk up a “you were wrong” tally?

Go for it.

It’s because it’s a videogame they play for fun, and the people who like rein play him to pin stuff and swing the hammer, so that’s what they want to do.

And then they lose, but whatever, it’s a videogame. If it’s in ranked then they will derank to whatever elo their playstyle starts working at.

It’s not throwing if that’s how they know to play the game.

And if they keep showing up in your ranked games, odds are the rank you’re at is the rank where what they’re doing works half the time for them. In which case they’re not really any worse than you, you just see their mistakes more easily.

My matches range anywhere from low GM to diamond because I’m smack bang in the middle of it at the moment

And no the playstyle doesn’t work because I clap their cheeks every time I play against them

I’m just trying to understand the psyche of why they play the way they do. Is it fun? Do they think it’s funny? Thats what I want to know from other inting Rein mains
