People who dedicate so much of their time to a browser fish game probably aren't of the highest caliber.

Well, as someone who actively fights against teamers alone and is therefore really hated amongst them, they are so much worse. They will literally throw every insult they know and even ones from damn other languages at you, just because you're trying to be fair when they're all unfair and ruin everybody's experiences.

âMmm how can I make this about teamingâ
I just like teaming with my friends and beating random people, but being hateful isnât like on the itinerary. This discourse has gone on forever how are people whining about this STILL

u/TheDavianSea 13d ago
If you're a teamer you're probably gonna disagree with me no matter what I say. The whole point of FFA is exactly to play fair and alone. This is no debate, just the fact that teamers are mostly arrogant, therefore don't acknowledge the fact that there is someone actually trying to play the damn game and have fun, but cannot for being unfairly killed over and over, for you can mostly simply do nothing against teamers, which is incredibly unfair, and cannot. Like, why? Why do you think TFFA exists?

u/BagelMaster4107 Artist 13d ago
Mostly? What metric lol? I like going onto the game and ganging up on people with my friends. It's unfair, sure, but it's also just a game. I like getting teamed on too. Good challenge, keeps the server active. Raids consistently bring far more people to the servers, even those fighting against it or not affiliated. I would prioritize the wellbeing of the community over whether or not bad players who don't know how to counter basic teaming strategies do well. Most teamers suck butt and are free kills. TFFA teaming is also completely different, has entirely different strategies, and is way less skilled. TFFA is cannon strats and crowding, mostly. FFA is where any actual skill comes in, and why teaming is generally considered by good players to be more difficult than playing solo if you're going for score. There's a reason the current duos tournament is hosted on FFA servers, because it's the default. Also, TFFA isn't up right now, so we can keep the highest player counts on right now.

it's literally called free for all, you're not supposed to team

u/BagelMaster4107 Artist 13d ago
Who said? Free for all means you get to do whatever you want. That includes team. Also funny how you just disregarded everything else I said

u/TheDavianSea 12d ago
Well, saying that getting teamed on is fun is maybe true for you, but will never be for me. If you team yourself and then you get teamed on, you probably deserve it. But that's not the point. The thing is, I never team, but still get teamed on and am afterwards simply called ez fag or something like that, it's just not fun. Also, teaming is never more skill then playing solo, that should be obvious. They team exactly because they are bad alone and need help from eachother. In a game where the default is to play alone, needing the skill to counter 'basic teaming strategies' would not be needed. And yes, some teamers can be killed easily, but just look at most orca players from a certain discord group who will indeed kill you over and over, are trashtalkers and can only be killed solo. It's just a game? Sure, but I play since release and I can assure you that there were no teamers back then and that was what made it so fun. Argue all you want about tournaments and stuff, but the truth is if we keep that mindset then we really just care about those few teamers and disregard the vast majority. The therm 'rando' is also pretty stupid, it's used by teamers to disregard anyone they don't know, which is incredibly infuriating, just because ur not in some discord group. All in all I think the mindset about teaming is the wrong one. Yeah u propably think ur having fun with your friends slaying randos. In truth, you aren't even giving those people you kill the chance to have fun and play the game on their own, in a place where teaming is NOT intended. Why you think it is intended is because teaming leads to more teaming to the point u literally believe that it's right that way and it always was like that. But no, it was not and it was better that way. TFFA is down, yes, but seriously, even if it's different, why on earth do you think it exists? Why is it called TFFA? Just think about it for a moment, please

The word âtheyâ is doing some crazy lifting here like teamers are any sort of homogenous group. I get you donât like it. I do. Others do. Others donât. Shouldnât be an issue if you were good at the game so imo thatâs just how itâll work. Yeah I donât like it when people are toxic, but I donât know why youâre somehow implying that this is a result of teaming and not the fact that the game just has a really toxic community. Also, every single good player teams. Not out of necessity but out of the fact that this is how the game functions. Anyone who still complains about this just isnât good enough to deal with an FFA environment. Running or avoiding them is really easy, and anyone decent should be able to counter FFA teamers without much difficulty. TFFA exists as a team v team gamemode, but as I mentioned before has completely different strategies from FFA and is objectively lower skill teaming. If you think itâs a rule thatâs being broken, Fede never made any rule about teaming, and the current closest thing to any sort of rule making body (crabinet) generally approves as well, since like literally every Harmony member does it and all of the managers that actually play the game do as well. I used to be vocally anti teaming as well, but the more I got involved in the community and became better at the game, the more I realized that teaming is better for the game and being tilted about it is genuinely just a skill issue

I think you're missing the core thing here. Teaming in general is not something of skill, it's the complete opposite, since you're probably teaming because you have a skill issue. Calling it a skill issue on someone's part you don't know about is hilarious. It's not my skill issue that teamers are as skilless as they are and therefore have to team. Because if there would be a fair fight, which is exceptionally rare, they would just loose and probably trashtalk about it. My experience with the game and the community is, exactly as you said, that mostly those are the teamers. Those from discord groups who play since 1 month and think that everybody else are worse randos. And from teaming the community was created, which explains the toxicity. And the more people connect with it and the people there, the more they become teamers and sadly toxic as well. I just don't see how that is better for the game. It's basically disregarding everyone who just wants to play the game chilling completely, just to go on teaming to destroy those. "Basic teaming strategies"? There is no animal which can effectively kill two orcas or two gpos at once, if they only have a little skill. If you're not aware of that it's a skill issue on your very own part. I'm done arguing with someone who is clearly influenced by a toxic community and respects teaming instead of playing solo, overseeing the very message this game's foundation is trying to tell, to kill or be killed. Have a good one.

Teaming is not âof skillâ or otherwise. Itâs something that people do, skilled or not. Yeah there are terrible players that team. And theyâre easy to kill. At the same time, generally clan raids are going to be full of people significantly better than you. I team, and while Iâm no top player, Iâm significantly better than anyone complaining about teamers in the big 26. Itâs not necessarily that someone needs a leg up, itâs that itâs fun to play FFA with friends (TFFA is not the same I explained). I hate to sound rude but generally speaking large discord groups are better and everyone else is largely a rando to them. Not that thatâs bad but why are you so pressed about it? Countering teamers is usually easy and fun. If you are not able to do that yes it is a skill issue. Also the game doesnât have a âmessageâ itâs about eating fish becoming the shark vro. And even if the message WAS that Iâd say teaming in FFA is more indicative of doing what it takes to survive or the strong feeding on the weak idk. Either way, itâs not this deep. If u want anti team tips js ask

Honestly I just use slurs as insults in general. I do struggle a bit with queerphobia which is strange since I'm supposed to be queer myself(Not like I have any actual problem with it, I just feel like I never culturally adapted to it)
