How to stop being toxic?

Yeah, I am a toxic player, I am sorry for that.

I am trying to not be toxic and be more positive but it simply doesn’t work.

It’s hard to be friendly when your dps does 2000 damage during the whole match when even supports did 4000+ damage. It’s hard to stay positive when a person picks a healer and heals less than I can heal myself when I am soldier. It’s impossible to stay calm when your tank jumps 1 vs 5, blames everyone and hunts for kills while ignoring objectives and helping teammates.

How so stop being toxic?

i type BG at the end of the match and feel a little better as i said that the game was not good, you can said this and not mention anyone specific!
but mostly as a casual non comp player i get messages as “ofc cause ur trash ( thanks i know and?” " kus/ window is there end it all"
ehe

2 quick tips.

If you’re a typer. Turn chat off.

If you’re vocal. When you want to say something negative. Mute your mic, then say what you need to say. Gets it off your chest, but doesn’t bother any one else.

imo… toxic means when you start a beef with a team mate or harass somebody and continue to do so beyond the match.
matches can be heated for sure but as long as things remain in the match all should be fine, even toxic comments at the end…
I mean my last OW2 Play Session was so bad that I had to vomit!

how does that help when trolls are still in the match and you are locked with them like in prison until the match ends?

Just don’t engage with them. Quite simple really.

or just report them, I also just had a dps and a tank who were more busy telling almost everyone to “ky5” instead of just playing the game… I guess for them the game is more about telling team mates to kys instead of playing the objective that is displayed onscreen all the time…
and it was especially for me aggrevating since I also had to fight a Controller with Joy Con Drift… on a PS4pro (btw)

You can see why the matches have been one-sided since OW2 when you have at least one of these scenarios going on. One player throwing is enough to throw the whole match, definitely if it’s the tank.

At least you’re not blaming the match maker. Someone throws, nothing you can do, just got to take the L, report and move on.

Get a life, everyone is near your skill level, if you get matched with bad people its cuz you are bad yourself.

Most probably is the match maker tho as it’s broken

Lol if you say so :+1:.

so when I am top healing support among both teams AND doing 3k more damage than my DPS Soldier when I am Ana and my soldier has been in same match since the very beginning and wasn’t afk at base or a latejoining player. That is actually me being bad?

Or when my teammates have their ults always at 100% but they refuse to use them. It’s also me being bad, right?

Possibly. OW is more complex than “number more so I better”.

Sometimes you see support over healing and then wondering why fights aren’t being won.

Your soldier might have low damage because your tanks already killed people as the enemy feed into them and he’s just getting low HP picks. Could be his positioning was bad, or he’s been caught early in fights. Could be that some healing resources needed to go to him instead of the tank. There’s an endless list.

With that example, no it’s not you being bad. You were just matched with low players.

“where is the conclusion and how do I jump to it”.

You weren’t given any information to work from, yet still so certain :rofl:

Easy, do what I do. I turn my text chat off completely. I stay out of VC completely. I just sit and say what I want to say, to myself in private. And hope the next game goes better.

It happens dude maybe they were having a bad game or maybe they got placed higher than they should have from placements. Either way just turn off chat thats the easiest way to not say something toxic. Also if you are tilting at the end of the game just leave instantly. I have avoided saying toxic stuff many times by just leaving the game as soon as it ends.

Healing and damage is irrelivent if you cant kill. If that S76 is matched with you cuz you both have the same MMR -/+ 500(litearlly noting).
OW2 buffed supports too much so its normal to sometimes out dps your dps, i do it non stop on bapt or illa its noting specal, not to mention Ana has no drop off range/damge, making it super easy to get high dps in absurd range.

yeah I also think that kills are more important than damage
