Sitting a base that no one’s attacking. Being a crystal carrier in Deephaul with next to no one attacking. Flag carrying in EotS when everyone else is teamfighting bases.
A few possibilities here. But if it’s something like ToK or CtF…probably no excuse for damage to be that low.

People take BGs seriously?

While I agree on those points. I’ve also seen others mid in wsg just watching fights, rogues not capping and letting enemy cap one game and play really well another.
That was the first time I thought someone could have been throwing for a friend or something because the difference was night and day. That or big brother got back onto the game to not have his rating ruined.

There are people throwing almost every second game now.

I just made a post about this it was’t 10 mill but it was 50 mill when everyone else is around 200mill. I think they’re bots they don’t talk or reply when you message them. MM Hunter doing 50 mill is insane in team fight game with nonstop fighting

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. The amount of terrible players that play this game is insane I doubt all of them are in on some sort of win trading scheme.

I can’t believe there’s people that actually think the game is won by the damage meter. I would take a player that is hyper zoned in on killing the efc from the start of the game to the finish over a player that tools around in mid to stroke his scoreboard ego every single time.

I usually deal 10M when people arbitrarly tell me “ret sit st/dr/lh”
But I have started kindly refusing. I have too much damage and support to rot away at a base the entire game.
I love base sitting on my Ret lots of opportunities for 1v1s vs Rogues and Druids which is a rush

Ret just excels at group combat though. So much better to be with a team
10 million damage is like one aimed-shot

It sucks. Feral is overtuned and rogues can just reset forever. I cant sac or loh or bop others while im sitting alone. Makes no sense to waste away half my utility sitting a base that I will for sure lose to a rogue once he gets trinket and resets

The bg was mines. He was a warrior not escorting the top cart. Try harder to validate poor behavior

Sometimes comps aren’t favorable for a certain players. Maybe he was getting kited the whole game and no one was tossing him a freedom.
Requires context.
A Sub rogue with no damage and several basses nabbed/spun is like 20x more useful than some DH who has been chewing on the ankle of a disc priest in a team fight for 8 minutes and thinks he’s doing anything.

I won a silvershard mines with 29m damage when our two top on our team had 299m and 230m damage.
It was a close match too, 1500-1468.
Now you might call me a bot, but when I stopped 3 of the enemy team from reaching the top cart which was THE deciding cart of the match, allowing my teammate to solo hold it against the 4th player I let slip past me, I felt like a hero.
It was 100% a team effort, we all played well and if any one of us played just a little worse we would have lost that match.
So when I see people come in here complaining they are losing 2 out of 3 matches and talking about the damage meters, I have to wonder how long will it take them to understand that maybe topping the damage meters isn’t leading them to the win rate they want?
Of course it’s class, spec, map, and match dependent. Some matches your best bet really is to just go all in on doing as much damage as possible. But damage alone doesn’t win matches.
It was an orb match the entire game is a team fight there is no excuse for that.
