It really isn’t sometimes- the more and more rants and such I see on almost every platform regarding Overwatch is usually completely true and valid- as I experienced most of the bullshit.

It’s incredibly tiring, irritating, axiety-producing, and anger-inducing. 

From people REFUSING to group up /because apPaReNtLy their way is better, soOOOO much better, in fact, we lost three games in a row due to their lack of wanting to work together, bad attitude and their peanut-sized brain/, to making up their own rules and exploding when people don’t agree with them, people not wanting to switch then we should and we need them to, DPS mains on their high-horse, tanks running off without healers or DPS to break up the other team /leading them to a very early death, caused by their lack of patience/, or even healers trying to be DPS or even healers just healing their friends.

Comp is almost impossible to play because of those reasons /i have a lot more, but listing them would take an eternity/, QP as well- the lack of wanting to group up and listen is hilarious. 

They want to win but won’t take “””shit””” from anyone, and then they get surprised when we don’t win.

I just wish everyone would take a step back, and start treating people like you would anyone in public- with respect, and decency. 

If you don’t like the team plan, then respectfully disagree and try to come up with a new one, together, as a team!

If you don’t like someone, mute them, rather than going ape-shit and spilling all profanities in the book, and setting off not only the person you don’t like but your other teammates as well!!

/etc/

I apologize for the colorfully-worded and essay-long rant, but as a Mercy main /who’s currently taking a break from Overwatch for a few months because of the toxicity, misogyny, etc that have been making me feel horrible and it’s been declining my overall mental health/ and an avid Overwatch player, I just really needed to get that off my chest

And anon, I apologize for taking so long to reply! If you're still playing Overwatch, I hope all is going well, and I hope your games are good and not full of horrible teammates! 

I think most of the cast who didn’t know OCiel before he became ‘Ciel Phantomhive’ will stand up for him! And luckily, that is the vast majority of Kuro’s character-list. The only reason the 2CT worked is because most MCs are not OCiel’s past friends or family.

So you can basically say everyone in that room who saw him got arrested? They are less likely to side with OCiel… at first. But everyone outside of it? Well that’s basically the people who have reason to side with him. They didn’t know RC, it means way less to them.

Excluding:

Frances (because she’s complex and Yana’s obviously withholding her for reasons rn)

Lau (does Lau even know what’s going on ever, does he even know OCiel’s name isn’t ‘Earl’)

Yesterday was undoubtedly one of the busiest days in Overwatch regarding Competitive Play since Season 13.

What do I mean by that?

Well, after disappointing tryouts to get my new rank (which consisted of uncoordinated attacks on the enemy team, players asking for healing across the map, no communication except for me and maybe one or two other people in a game, etc, which resulted in a low rank) I finally, finally decided to slow down and actually use the group feature which I usually avoid because either it takes a really long time to get new group members - or the group members act like strangers as soon as the game starts, so nothing goes a plans.

Anyways, oh boy, was I surprised haha! I looked down a row of possible groups (one was literally asking for a sugar daddy and another one looked like a toddler wrote it so that was exciting and not at all concerning) and found one with a title that asked for people that worked well in a team, that wanted to do Competitive Play. 

The group leader had already taken a role (there were two healer roles, two DPS and two tanks) which was healer, so I took the last remaining role for a healer. Almost as soon as I joined and chose my rank, he/she was actually using voice chat and happily asked how I was, before asking me who I played.

A bit shy, but excited to meet someone that already sounded so nice I told them “Mercy!” to which he told me that he/she played Lucio and that they were trying to get to a higher rank (Gold) on the account they were on currently - which was their second, 

We talked all about our experiences as healers and our past as DPS mains (which was super, super interesting might I add!) before another super nice member was added who was a tank. 

We got two more members, another tank and DPS before we finally played and it was insane - lots if not most of the rounds were difficult, but somehow, pretty much no matter what, we all were able to pull through in the end!

We played with the same original group for about two games before people started leaving and we got new, which led to a game with a pretty........He was a huge flirt, I guess (as well as one of the biggest players/toxic/creeps I’ve ever had the displeasure of meeting) He kept asking me, the only female, super lewd questions and asking things like if I was single and how I was “probably really hot in real life” to which I just replied with laughter and jokes (I didn’t want to yell or berate him - I was concentrating on winning and I didn’t want an even lower rank!) 

After all that, and we were queuing for a new game, the group leader and a few others were apologizing and talking about how gross that guy was to me - I agree he was nasty and made me uncomfortable and we all agreed we hoped that by God’s grace we wouldn’t run into him again- to which we did, and he was on the enemy team. 

Anyways, we won about six-ten games which honestly surprised me at the end of the day! I never have that luck, ever - and I’m really happy that I had such wonderful group members. 

Thankfully, before I signed off for a few hours to play with another good friend, I got to send them friend requests and joined a Discord server to keep in touch as well as play together, so I’m excited for whatever happens next ---

I just hope we/I/ won’t run into someone like the guy I mentioned before...If I wasn’t so focused then I know I would have said to him...Or even done, to be honest? 

Either way, I’m happy that when he was doing that messed up stuff my team members defended me and told him to stop, and besides that mess -

I apologize on replying so late but that’s fantastic haha! It feels so strange knowing that back in the day I used to be a DPS main that jumped ship to be a full-time healer –
