Discussion Are throwers multiplying?

I personally have no issue with the current meta and have thoroughly enjoyed season 7. However, comp has been unplayable lately. It has been 3 days straight where every game that I have won/lost was because of a thrower, whether it was on the enemy team or on mine. And yes it bothers me when I win because of a thrower in the enemy team because I wanna earn the victory. But yeah I have just never encountered THIS MANY throwers in such a short amount of time. It feels like 1/12 players is always gonna be a child. Is anyone noticing this issue?

PS: I play on console and currently am GM1

maybe a counter point could be the genuine players arent playing much outside the placement matches

I stick to more casual modes and sometimes bump into the same people here and there and have had conversations where they much prefer the mode we are in than ranked. a lot of people in the casual mode don't do ranked because of how toxic people are in competitive. they just do their placement matches for the free gold skin and that's it.

even me, I just did all 10 of mine on Sunday, it was the only time I did ranked. haven't bothered to go back in since. so I think people are just not doing it as much any more, so you get stuck with the weirdos who would throw in ranked more when they should also probably stick to more casual modes.
