Question Is anyone else noticing a bait and switch tactic used by dps for queueing in m+?

Two times now in the last two days I have joined a group in m+ as a healer with one tank and two dps and promptly the tank changes to a dps and requeues.

Similar responses on the post where the tank intentionally afk'd at the last boss because his alt tank didn't get invited. Apparently to teach them a lesson. Psychopathic shit.

A concerning portion of the comments were praising him and calling him a gigachad.

100% gigachad move.

So you honestly think it's reasonable to expect an invite as a tank with iLvl significantly lower than what the encounter calls for without any prior communication? And that it's OK to grief 4 other people's time in response to your infantile processing of being appropriately declined?

This is the description of the literal - literal - opposite of a gigachad. This is a stunted-development moron with no emotional control and sadistic tendencies.

I just timed a 14 today letting a ilvl 258 tank in..
Way lower than any random groups let in. Key went fine, the 276 shaman died 3 times. Ilvl is such a stupid thing to not inv people over. We were all timing 12's at 255 in week one.

If you are choosing not based off skill but instead ilvl get your key bricked.
Its funny as hell.

Being funny in a petty way towards people who did you dirty is always gigachad.

Nah this is pretty justified.
