How do I deal with toxicity from more skilled players as a new player?
(I hope I’m using the right subreddit for this, new to reddit too.)
Hello, as the title says I am relatively new to Overwatch, started playing last week. I’m a Switch 2 player and I understand that might make me a worse player than most when it comes to cross play.
I really like playing tank and specifically Sigma.
The only problem is that more or less every time I go into quick play I have people on my team making fun of me, and it’s really getting to me unfortunately because of how anxious I am.
It’s basically scared me into sticking to v.s ai rather than even consider quick play; and sometimes not even play the game that day at all, so does anyone have any tips? Thank you in advance.
Edit: I did what a majority of replies said and turned off text chat, it’s helped to an almost impossible degree!! First quick play match I played after I turned chat off I somehow pulled off a 37 kill victory with a potg. Super proud of myself as it’s been my best game yet, thank you all! I’ll probably be keeping text chat off until I’m more confident in my ability, until then I’ll be in blissful ignorance of what my team is saying.
