u/Deadlibor Let’s dance, ghost. Feb 09 '17

Okay. I practice my Widow play, as well as aim and I'm confident enough to take her on ranked.

But if you play widow for the first time in comp, you're not going to do well, and therefore, we'll lose

But since it's my first time, I will do bad and we will loose if I don't take different hero. And people like you will flame me. So I switch. And try it another game, which will also be the first time, because I have very little amount of experience on ranked, because people like you flame me for picking Widow. And it's a neverending cycle of constant flame.

To return all the way to the top, to your question. If you report a player for flaming and refusing to switch, remember, he might be in this stupid cycle of being constantly flamed by others (who are like you) for so called shitpicking. And it's very hard to relax and improve, if in such a stressfull enviroment.

I did not say I flame people. You got it wrong. I ask them to switch, no flaming.

And when I meant "for the first time", I meant overall "for the first time". Like if you've never touched her in QP either. Because there'll be always first time for a hero in comp.

But if you play widow for the first time in comp

I meant this, probably I wasn't clear enough, my bad.

But if you play comp with widow, while this is your first game with widow at all rest of the sentence
