there’s a group of Overwatch players called “Team Hanjo” who have the goal of getting the lowest Skill Rating possible in the game by losing every single game. Two of them already have a Skill Rating of 1, the lowest you can get.
I’ve been sewing and watching them deliberately losing games accompanied by cheerful Christmas music and it’s really getting me into the spirit of the season.
My fave is when one of them said, “Man, I tried solo queuing yesterday and won five matches in a row. I’m going to rise back into Diamond by accident. :(” and another guy was like “That’s the struggle.”
The struggle of trying to be the worst.
also to add on from what I heard they’re actually really nice people. There’s this one clip (that I wish I could find again) of them helping a junkrat get an achievement and they like to help lower level players learn the basics of the game in hopes they can move to higher ranks.
They say they like doing this just for fun and if they’re in a 6 man stack there’s really no harm.
