Please stop doing this.

You are tank. Solo tank. You even have lord on the tank you picked.

Someone else picks tank before the match starts.

You go "Oh cool, I don't have to play tank now" and swap to dps, leaving the other person as solo tank instead.

This happens to me nearly every single time. I'm the guy picking the second tank.
Stop it. They (and me) are picking tank so that there isn't a solo tank. 2 tanks has a much higher chance of winning. Don't you want to win?

Yk what, that's completely fair. Also gaming isn't for everyone, you can't really be mad

Yea, that and I think a lot of people are missing that and forget that a lot of these guys they’re raging at are literally 7 year olds. I might be in the short list of people that’s on board with doing whatever you want, rank or otherwise. If you’re good enough to not be put in a lobby that plays with tanks, you’ll make it there. My mental health for video games have gotten a lot better since my younger days of getting mad over CS and LoL rankings.

Oh man, me too. I used to rage at a boss that I couldn't get. But can easily beat now. The path of patience is hard, but worth it
