The only time I saw someone say "GG EZ" it was from someone on the losing team :confused:

I dislike both racism and bad sportsmanship. I hope this isn't too controversial.

No, it obviously isn't. I agree that good sportsmanship is a good rule to follow as I follow it when I play. The worst I'll do after an easy stomp match is say like "heh, that was easy" to my bros in my party voice chat.

I also can't help but feel like if someone on an opposite team says "easy" after a match, and it rates more than a sarcastic eye-roll from me, then I might be a huge pussy.

Racism is bad, giving a poo poo about sportsmanship outside of in houses or tournaments is stupid. Making someone mad by typing "what an easy game" is basically winning twice when you think about it.

I always strive to use the most precise language to inform just how owned the opposing team has been. Every GG is rated from "2 EZ" to "close 1"

My favorite is typing "gg close one" after a really one sided game. This one guy was butthurt because he thought we were a six stack (we were) and after we all said that he went nuclear.

I have never typed GG because that implies a game was good, which it was not, because it is univocally quite easy

You missed the point altogether, but your troll falls flat. In case I'm wrong maybe what I should've said was if that really gets you upset then perhaps you're being over-sensitive about a dumb video game with ape scientists.

Besides, my friends in voice chat already know me as a huge pussy.

i kind of wish there was another symmetric game mode besides king of the hill, but I'm not sure what it could look like. i assume they are avoiding the 5 cap point maps from TF2 since they want to have full control over game length

Ahaha this is the best. I played an entire match there taking the point waiting for someone to jump in and let me boop them to their deaths but the fight kept happening at the doorway entrance and I captured the point solo.

I like how my Hearthstone sprays sometimes give me the same uneasy feeling of whether or not they could be considered troll-ish as they do in the actual card game.

Also gently caress Hearthstone/WOW Lore, break that poo poo wide open and do an Overwatch expansion imo.

I'd like to see a 3 cp mode. 5 cp means a lot of characters who lack mobility tools will just never get used (or likely handicap your team if they do get picked), but 3 should keep the map pretty condensed.

When I accidentally derailed, my page was talking about people being suspended or banned by Riot or someone for saying "gg easy". I thought that was dumb. Sorry for the derail, I guess.

I am pretty pleased at how much praise the game throws at you for winning so I don't bother saying anything after. I mean, you get a giant piece of text that says VICTORY and everyone on the other team gets a red and depressing DEFEAT. Then you get to see your smug rear end face in lights.

Overwatch being the fastest-selling PC game ever, breaking Blizzard's own record with Diablo 3, sure makes all the shouting about how this game wouldn't succeed extra funny.



I like all the people who kept yelling how the game would be dead within a month because they solo queued into a group, and also they think every loss they take is because the other team is grouped.

No, since the game mechanics aren't at all designed around it.

Have you heard the Good News?
I get that this will automagically be an Unpopular Opinion but unless someone is straight up harassing you or spewing hate speech you should probably shut the gently caress up about your hurt feelings

Riot and League of Legends' insane suspension/ban system seem to exist chiefly as a way to doubly monetize their game; I can't remember where I read it, but someone had some sort of nebulous data to suggest that the overwhelming majority of banned players make new accounts and re-buy skins, which is all Tencent/Riot really want anyway

the issue now is that players in online games legitimately think that if you say "game was easy :^)" after a match you are banworthy and a poor sport and blah blah blah

I've never been banned from anything and I generally just don't type in whatever chat system is provided, but hearing about how mad people get about "bm" is ridiculous

wasn't it Blizzard that removed a "sorry" emote from their game because "people were using it too sarcastically"? I'm sorry but that's hilarious
