You called him out on his opinon becuse he is lower ranked than you ? How is this not rank shaming
As for your question he if is playing his best at that rank he is fine but if he trolls (picking hero you never played before is trolling) he should get punished
Problem is there are scum players that report anyway, they try to make the whole lobby report one player for one tricking or playing bad (and most of the time they are playing worse than the player they want reported).
Sadly since reports are automated these trash, evil people get innocents bannee with their false reports.
And a Moira who tries to flank a full health Sym ISN’T feeding?? That what you are saying? Cause thats ridiculous to think that its not.
Whether or not someones is throwing, feeding or sabotaging is purely subjective to the situation.
If someone is making the attempt on a hero they aren’t used to and coordinating with their team, trying their best and failing, THAT is the difference between a decent person and a thrower because throwers and feeders simply do what they want regardless of what the team wants.
If someone is asked to switch to Soldier to counter a Pharrah but that player isnt USED TO PLAYING HITSCAN DPS…that is NOT throwing if they do not do well. They have been courtious enough to be flexible and it doesnt end up benefiting the team, but at least they TRIED to be helpful.
This is what Blizzard needs to DEFINE AS THROWING VERSUS NOT THROWING!!
They should really put “deliberately” in front of feeding. Even though in the context it is obvious and the wording contains “intentionally” at some point iirc and says not poor play etc.
Problem is… How can you say someone is deliberately feeding?
Yesterday I did a mid diamond placement. The enemy widow (3.4) had 5 elims/life with 78% scoped and 23% critical.
My genji went from 3.1 e:d to 1.6 LOL (only 2 games on him) In my defense both healers and the dva peeled the widow each time I dived her. Could only kill her with blade…
If my team didn’t know better (we end up running double shield genji dva, we lost but we made her swap in defense) they could have reported me for throwing.
Use your brain and eyes maybe. Playing stupid and just feeding is very different. Think what is the player trying to acomplish. Is he just trying to die or is he trying to make some idiot play… it’s not that hard. If you cant decide its just stupid play in 90% of cases.
