Trash talking your team in Silver/Gold is an excellent way to guarantee a loss

So many toxic teammates this week, and the thing I noticed was that most of the games I lost involved someone with an ego problem going toxic immediately upon seeing a perceived mistake.

These folks also think frags = game sense. If you're bottom frag and try to stick up for your teammate and encourage positive comms/teamwork you become the new target.

Of course, this is a tac shooter and your bottom frag is probably not the main reason you are losing. A player doing badly is not going to magically become a better teammate because you criticise everything they do.

One teammate had the audacity to plug his Twitch before going apeshit on our Skye for not deploying Ult when he thought they should have. That game was an easy W but for comms falling apart. He literally said, "why are we losing these rounds" after our first loss on Round 3. Really pathetic mental!

TL;DR if you are tilted please keep it to yourself. You're only spreading it, and making your loss all but guaranteed
