Honestly, just block toxic people. Though I guess the block list has a limit, doesn't it?[DOUBLEPOST=1466535292,1466535259][/DOUBLEPOST]
Every time I tried to utilize it, I still ended up with Anna and Gas.
Well fuck you too. I still have video evidence of you saying good things about me! :O

Or just report them. If someone gets enough reports they will be banned.

The avoid feature would be great if we actually used it how it was intended, but players had to go ruining it by just avoiding anyone that is better at the game then them.

Which is why I do my swearing in ventrilo rather than in-game chat.

On a related note, I still shake my head that apparently, in some games (League of Legends), poor player performance is a valid reason for reporting a player.

DOTA 2 too. Its like they don't understand the function reporting was meant to fill.

I've been blackmailed.
 
In LOL when you report someone, there's a pulldown menu for the reason, and poor player performance is one of the items on that pulldown.
Really? Damn.

DOTA 2 has Intentional Feeding / Skill Abuse/ Communication Abuse and a box to elaborate on the offense.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure they throw out things that aren't purposefully bad.[DOUBLEPOST=1466538373,1466538275][/DOUBLEPOST]

I mean, it's already been posted, if people look for it. It's hardly blackmail.

TIL Genji's deflect also works on Pharah's, Tracer's, and McCree's ultimates. Which imo is even more bullshit than deflecting my helix rockets back at me.

He can even reflect Mei's buddybot, I saw a video where a Genji got Mei's Achieve for 4+ in a Blizzard.

Speaking of which, Defense Hero only Brawl! ALL JUNKRAT, ALL THE TIME

JUST CALL ME DUNKRAT
 
Not sure if anyone heard, but there was a scandal in South Korea when a 17 year old girl placed 7th overall in their competitive Overwatch rankings and even defeated other pro teams to qualify for the Nexus Cup. Many pro-gamers couldn't believe her talent was real and accused her of hacking.

Blizzard came to her defense and confirmed her amazing play is totally legit, but she still went on to live stream her play on one of South Koreas gaming networks. She still had to wear a mask in order to avoid bullying, as the whole situation has been very emotional for her. Here is a video of the stream.



Seriously, good for her. Two of her most heavy accusers even said they would drop their ranking and leave the game if she was revealed to be legit, and they kept to their word, dropping from the game after this broadcast.

All I can really add is.... holy shit... I am glad I don't play in South Korea because they would eat me for fucking breakfast. I have been in some pretty intense games, but watching her play and all the others around her is downright insane.
 
Just so we're clear, Gas is always cranky, and I was giving Terrik shit. I wasn't really raging. It takes an awful lot to get me to rage for real.
 
We did eventually get our shit together tonight though.

Team attacking final point, Phara ult, drop down, Mercy revival of dead teammates, kill last member of other team for team kill, capture point--all within a few seconds.

That was a hell of a finish.
