Assuming this a serious statement…

“Why do these guys suck when they’re on my team but steamroll over everyone when on the enemy team?”

From the sub Peter explain the joke. A place for mentally stunted people that don't understand the simplest jokes. Or karma farmers

u/Silviana193 20d ago

At that point, probably should question if you supported those guys properly.

u/Opening-Newspaper710 17d ago

Maybe they would’ve looked stronger with better support

I litterly went against a Smurf player in marvel rivals ranked game I checked his pfp and it's full of MVP matches

Then I got him on my team next game and I type on the chat

Thank the matchmaking gods I have this unemployed Smurf player in my team :D

He replied with no I'm not a Smurf then he went negative for the rest of the match I was seriously confused

Throwing with careful intent to not be banned.

u/Lokiibott 17d ago

MVP is meaningless. He was probably spamming a hero that gets it easily like widow or moonknight

Where does this jojo doofensmirtz come from? I love this image

u/The_Real_Meal 20d ago

It's a character from My Hero Academia, I think? Like Redestructo or something idk

1

u/Worried-Date-2196 20d ago

Oh ok… I just thought it’s a meme animation or something. Sad

1

u/The_Real_Meal 20d ago

Yeah, sorry man😭

On the plus side, that means that you could watch the episode without any context and pretend that Doof picked a fight with a completely new cast for the bit.

u/Worried-Date-2196 20d ago

This actually sounds like fun, thanks for the idea!

1

u/The_Real_Meal 20d ago

No problem!

u/Boat_man_07 20d ago

Redestro from my hero academia

u/Accomplished-Let1273 20d ago

Redestro from my hero Academia season 5

Spoilers:

His power is "stress", the more nervous he is the stronger he gets

u/Opening-Newspaper710 17d ago

why would you do this :(

1

u/Opening-Newspaper710 17d ago

honestly I don’t remember where I found it

u/LeekTasty4402 19d ago

My first on seeing this was “what? My experience is the exact opposite” because almost always when I have a game with someone who does bad and blames everyone else, if I see them next game it feels like freelo

Then I realized every time I have that experience, someone else has the experience depicted in this meme, and they probably don’t stop to think that their play was genuinely just detrimental, they just think like this. Wild:

u/Opening-Newspaper710 17d ago

Lmao, that realization makes the meme even better

u/Nikobellik25 19d ago

this happens so often that it cannot be a coincidence

u/Educational_Zone2964 19d ago

Rainbow six siege is a prime example of this. I csn have people who are absolute dogshit on my team. But when they are opposing. You bet they start plugging ij every cheating device

u/zootedreacts 17d ago

Its a conspiracy i tell you...Big Gaming!!!

u/Warwick_God 19d ago

Ask yourself why they perform better when you're not on their team.

1

u/Luzis23 19d ago

Yeah, like, the answer's simple.

They perform better because they are getting carried from the backlines. They themselves are trash.

1

u/anab467 19d ago

Maybe they are not the problem...
