Earlier today in comp, I ran into one of the worst toxic Reyna's I've ever met. Usually, I don't get too tilted over toxic teammates, but today I just couldn't take it. In a 4-13 loss, in 16 of those rounds, our Reyna either lurked or flanked. In the only round he actually pushed with the team, we ended up winning it fairly well, but he would only proceed to complain about how "terrible my smoke is" and "why would I molly hall after smoking" (for context we played on Pearl). I would complain to him multiple times as to why he would always lurk and couldn't even blind in for us, but he would only berate me for being bottom frag and also call me a homophobic and racial slur. Then once we swapped sides, not once did he even play site with the team. Every round he flanked, and yes although it did work for him a few times, it would not ultimately matter as we would have all been dead on site already. He ended up top fragging for our team that game, largely because he got picks from lurking or flanking. My Reyna ended up going 18/16/2 while I ended up going 6/13/8. After the game had concluded, I eventually came up with this question. Would you rather have a toxic top frag who was a terrible team player, or have a chill bottom frag who was a great team player?
And yes, before anyone tells me I should have muted him, it would have done nothing really. He would have just kept lurking mid or flank, and nothing would have been resolved. I tried talking to him nicely, but then he became rude about it, so I did as well. It's not in my nature to become toxic to my own teammates, but today was just a special day.
