PvP Domination match. My side. 1 CW, 2 rogues, 2 SWs (1 of which is me). Other side, 2 rogues, 2 rangers, 1 CW.

My team is outmatched by the 2 rogues on the other side. They're running standard cheese builds and using them well enough that they're outplaying our 2 rogues. The game starts to "slant" towards them in points. The 2 rogues start talking smack to our entire team using ZoneChat. No one on my team responds, but plays even harder capturing nodes, and generally beating the heck out of the rangers and lone CW on the other team. We capture nodes and gain points quickly. The game is close. End score is 991 for them, and 1000/Win for us. We came back from an almost 500 point deficit. Almost the entire match was filled with their smack talk in ZoneChat. They were so busy talking smack to us, that they lost the game.

I'm not really sure what to call that. What would you?

    I have won a game where the enemy team was at 999 points for a good thirty seconds, where we had recovered from an almost 400 point difference after the game announced they were about to win.

    I have never been so shocked.

    The technically correct term would be probably something along the lines of "narcisstic stupidity".

    They lost interest. There are so many posts here by TRs, telling the same story
    " I execute. I execute. I execute. I yawn. It's so boring to be a TR."
    Russian leaderboard first page. The proof.

    There is also "OMG that CW pushed my kill! I will do any kind of crazy things I want now"

    No, it's called "typing is dying".

    It's also called "don't trust a so-called perfect build as a sure win". Skill is required.

    I call it fun. Trash talk or not, any close domination match is usually a blast and the reason I even still play the game at all.

    Lucky game, bad behavior make people leave, it is not winning if it taste bad... IDK, what to think.

    ...leaving pvp -match is good option if whole team think it is good idea...

    They don't care about win / loss nearly as much as they care about kill / death.
