Can a phone destroy a usb-c charger?

I've had an extremely bizarre situation last night. My Nintendo switch usb-c charger broke. It only charges intermittently. It would do the same with my phone, any other usb-c device and no matter what socket I plugged it into. The charger is no more than a month old

I borrowed an identical charger from my friend and it worked, so I plugged my phone into it and left it overnight. I've woken up and my phone hasn't charged past 15% and now this charger has the exact same charging issues as the last

My phone has admittedly been a little busted up for a while now and the screen does have some pixel-ly distortions so I'm wondering if a damaged phone could have broken both of these chargers so quickly? No issues with overheating or anything like that, just with the display.
