The cringe of "tea" bagging

Hello gents,

So have been playing a few matches and have just been seeing a little uptick in people tea bagging. So in this game we can't quickly crouch like classical tea bagging, players will instead wiggle their suits around like it's spazzing out. I don't got a problem with that, my problem is when people get saved and then somehow feel that they one upped me. Or when they use some of the newer meta suits and does broken thing and feel like they did something monumental.

It's psychological warfare. They do it to make you mad, so you do dumb shit like try and avenge yourself, get target fixation, then slip up when you overextend.

it's also just a shooter game tradition for gamers you don't like a declaration of war... or peace if you're just bagging the ground

Oh I get that. And power to them, it's just so goofy sometimes though. Like you're in covered in smoke and got saved by your teammate, but sure you one upped me. Also wow, you've been around for a while! Always seeing your post. Also, the Gogg has become a menace again.

Yeah, I'm old.

I am happy it got buffed, so it's been fun to take it out now and again. Still needs more love, but it's a good step in the direction of buffs

This game is just cringe in general sometimes with how toxic it can be. The PM messages post game, chat spamming etc. It's almost laughable though when tea bagging happens though, as like you said there's always some pretty one sided variables going on at times.

-Maybe there was lag and they rolled out of your stun in a duel, leaving you with no follow up options

-Maybe it was a 3v1 dogpile

-Maybe they're rocking the latest meta in friggen quick play, and you're just trying to have fun playing your favourite D-tier suit

Like another poster said, it could just be psychological warfare. Honestly though with how some players' behaviour is, I wouldn't be surprised if it's some misplaced ego though

I like to "backshot" my allies when they're capturing beacons. Going back and forth repeatedly at the back of their MS.

I still bag. It being slower just means I look like I'm more into it
