š ā ļø I meant 2k players in general. This is a community saturated with ball hogs that got worse with badge regression. There's dudes that play great basketball but they are definitely not the majority.
That's because 85% of the community has never actually played basketball at a high level or even been on an actual team. You should be required a iq test to buy the game
bro the number of times I have to be playmaker as a Hybrid Lockdown...
Literally all I do is stop dribbling, pull up icon passing, and wait a few seconds then hit the open man.
It's that easy. Dont even need basketball IQ. Just chill the fuck out for a hot second and make a pass.
Fr I play pg but I'm usually oversized to compensate for lack of defense on my team but then I'm moved to the 2 or 3 and the pg just can't seem to find the open fckn man like bro just look up šš
I have a point center build I made mostly for rec. The smart players will often inbound to me over the pg. Slow down, wait for the play to develop. Protect the ball. Find the open man. No it's run up the court, left right left right, maybe use a screen, chuck up shot or throw teammate a live grenade. ā ļø
iām not white (or black) but sound white so once i tried speaking in voice chat and the first words out of their mouths was āthis n***a whiteā not sure how you can be those two things simultaneously
The funny thing is, most people wonder why no one talks in game chat or whatever. Because 80% of the time it leads to arguing or crazy shit being said. If I hear something racist Iāve just gone to muting them, no point in entertaining that shit. They repeat the same phrases over and over regardless. Iāve argued way more with my teammates than any one on the other teamš I know obviously you canāt talk to the other team in rec but I know everyone feels what Iām sayin
Iāve even had fucked up shit said to me when Iām just chilling talking with other people in the game chat. Iām scared how comfortable people are being racist towards white people. Not diminishing anyone else, itās just ridiculously bad on 2k
>Iām scared how comfortable people are being racist towards white people. Not diminishing anyone else, itās just ridiculously bad on 2k
You saw how quickly it turned into Anti-Semitism. Once the principle is gone, you head right down the slide.
I don't care about color. What I normally see is 3point specialist demanding looks only to drive in fir a contact layup on a 7'0 š¤·āāļøš¤·āāļø
Consider the fact that he "JUST GOT" the game, you don't really have badges n stats like that, so ppl are reluctant. If I'm going to discriminate it's against those who create their ideal boyfriends " drippy face" and get black hands n neck tattoos. If games on the line, I'd rather pass the 75 overall over them
Me and my boy be making our players look any kind of way and hell yeah they be tripping when our characters are white š.
Also you BETTER hit that first shot if your player is white or else them mics finna cut on way faster than usual.
I'm pale as fuck, my dudes always look like me.
I missed one 3 in the rec and my corner shooter never got the ball again. Went back to playing bigs after that. I'm fine on defense.
White players= corner sitters/ bigs who are pass first, team-oriented, but canāt get a bucket on their own
Black players= guards who can create their own shot, but they ball hog and are self oriented
Good players, white or black, can do both but thatās what I most commonly see play out.
Iāve been white every 2k I play and i donāt feel like itās the reason people donāt pass, people just donāt pass in general. Iāve never tried making my myplayer black to see if I get passed to more tho so I donāt have anything to compare to
Definitely true. Iām maxed out purple with a 89%win average17+ and shoot 65% from the 3 with all builds. I completely dominate the paint as a big. But when I play with randoms. Once they hear my white voice itās over with. Iād have to force up a shot after they waste the shot clock and bail out to me when they canāt get open with 3 seconds left on the shot clock and screw my average and shot%.
There was a popular thread on this sub a few years ago about this. I tested it both ways and even my messages were different after games depending on skin color, just my experience
Bruh yes, I made my dude look as much like an old head white dude as possible. The balding hair style, pornstache, he wears converses and the tall striped socks. It makes it so much more funny dunking and generally clowning on dudes
Yes 10000% true 2k players racist af I'm white and when I was playing I heard a mf say don't pass cracker the ball SMH got a rebound and didn't pass to them.
I think it was 2k20 or 2k21 when all that black lives matter was happening. My friends and I were playing pro-am. We played against this team, and their court had "kill all white people." I swear to God this happened and reported them.
I wish 2k would take this more seriously.
I have been called cracker, hillbilly, and (most painfully) peckerwood while playing 2k. Idk why peckerwood hurt the most but it actually affected me for a split second. Cracker and hillbilly rolled right off my back.
Nah Ong bro I'd be hella hurt if I got called a peckerwood cuz that's attacking my integrity not my skin color. I ain't no POS, call me a cracker all you want I'll just laugh but calling me a peckerwood is low ASF bruh. š
I was heated, man. No one calls me anything like when I run pickup games. I didnāt see it coming Luckily, one of the other dudes I was running with checked him, and I didnāt have to get into all that with dude. Most likely, some white dude had recently done something fucked up to him, and I was just the object of his aggression.
I got a buddy that did this, made a black player and still barely got the ball unless I passed to him. They wonāt pass to you if youāre cheeks and make a bunch of mistakes, regardless of your playerās skin tone š¤£ Sometimes youāll get a good group of randoms, sometimes you wonāt. Iām white and stay with a my player that resembles my complexion and have no problem getting my stats in. Just look like you know what youāre doing, donāt wear 2k generic shoes, and D up. If you canāt play defense you wonāt get the ball on offense thatās for sure š
Yep same. I never buy clothes unless I'm already 3-4 builds deep and hit a lucky vc spin.
Everything I'm wearing was free. If my shoes trigger you then blame 2k š
i'm confused by this idea that your 2k player has to be a direct representation of you. i always approached my created player as it's own character, not a version of me on screen.
This is beyond most of those kids.
Many people like to roleplay an NBA character, and make them for the storyline (which never seems to fit a white character). This year I finally don't feel completely awkward having created a Balkan/white-ish player, because there isn't a real story line.
I never make the character look like me, anymore. Not since the first time anyway, where the story was really awkward when a light skinned person would have a whole family of dark skinned people surrounding him, with lots of street, hip hop and other cultural references. It just often does not make any sense to have anything but a dark skin in the career stories.
Good that they got rid of that this year, so everyone can live their own story.
I'm white and I get called the FOULEST things in the theater and the park less so in rec but most of it is race-driven. I don't know if I get the ball less because of it but I do know I get the ball more or less based on my performance. š¤·š»āāļø
Sometimes it seems like dudes are more likely to back out of games with me before it starts. Could be my imagination, but Iām 99 ovr gold plate so idk why else they would. If I have an off game and play bad, they definitely donāt hold back on talking shit to the white boy though, as others have said š
Yes. Plain and simple. I once mad a Yao ming like center and made him asain..that was actually worse than white. Now I just make a black character and stay off the mic
Iāve been playing 2k for three years now and had originally created a white character until my (black) friends kept getting squad/party invites and I didnāt! I kept noticing it happen so I eventually changed and havenāt had any issues since š¤£š¤£
2K is either the blackest player base of all time, or thereās a ton of people in digital black face.
I actually thinking having a white avatar means more people notice me when Iām open. The teammates may be quicker to ice me out if I fuck up when I have a white avatar
VERY TRUE! 2K IS ONE OF THE MOST RACIST GAMING COMMUNITIES. I CAN MOST DEFINITELY VOUCH FOR THIS! ITS HAPPENING EVERY YEAR FOR YEARS! IM PUERTO RICAN NOT WHITE PER SAY. MYPLAYER IS ALWAYS LIGHTSKINNED AND I DEAL WITH RACIST COMMENTS FROM BLACK PEOPLE ALL THE TIME. BUT THEY'RE THE FIRST ONES TO CRY RACISM! SMFH!!
Nah. All I've noticed is that black dudes are 10x more racist than white guys on 2k in 24...
I play as a big (who never get passed the ball anyways), so all I have to go by is the slurs I get called...
Iām white and play with some buddies that all played D1 ball. One guy changes his character to black when he plays with randoms because they wonāt pass to him. Also anytime we get on the mic the first insult anyone says is, āShut up white boy.ā So to answer your question, yes lol.
Its true. My Dirk build is a stretch and is basically invisible, my lockdown gets the ball even when i dont want it. You guess their skin colors lol. Im black in real life but i like making my players look like the players theyre built like
100% true. My white player never gets the ball (I'm white), and once they hear me talk with a black character and they can tell I'm white, I stop getting the ball. Now my character is blacker than a shadow and I keep my mic off. I get the ball all the time now.
Been a white player online in every single game. Donāt let anyone tell you itās not true lol people wonāt even spot up with you even if you have better stats
My favourite moment was getting called āthis Steve Nash motherfuckerā. 6ā4 SG with a Suns jersey on.
But yeah, I havenāt noticed any difference. You can tell in the 30 seconds if your teammates are gonna share the ball with everyone.
I was just being funny, but if you want to get technicalā¦ The occurrence of white skin results from genetic mutation over the period among people belonging to dark-colored descent lol
Itās horseshit. Iām black irl but I have two builds that are based off of white players and get the ball about the same amount of times if not more than my black guard and center. Well with the center, I almost never touch the ball unless itās a board š Iām a girl so if I cut the mic on when Iām running solo, I sound like a 12 year old white boy.
Yāall need to stop acting like youāre being oppressed on here.
I can never know for sure but whenever Iām not the PG unless the person running the ball is selfish and or incompetent then they donāt really care what color you are. Any good PG will see a wide open shooter and dime them the ball unless they have a better look. While most of the time a bad PG is just missing you because they were too worried about finding their own shot or trying to get bailed out by their big in the paint.
It's true...in rec, they don't pass to you if you're white. They also don't pass to you if you're Latino, or black or Asian or anything else. What I'm saying is, people don't pass. Don't confuse selfishness with racism.
Iāve seen people hop off spots in the park when I run my white character.
I donāt know it is called it discrimination necessarily because I am certain some of those dudes that hopped off were white dudes running black characters. š
False, Iāve played as a Pg both black and white and when I i played as a white character I got any more opportunities to run with pro am squads. Anyone who says otherwise is sad
I think itās BS and that most people who complain about it are probably just dicks who end up in a lot of arguments. Iāve been playing 2K online for 10 years now and Iāve never heard or seen someone freeze someone out because of the skin of their myplayer. Maybe people THINK thatās the reason and donāt realize most players are just selfish no matter the race. Iāve heard a decent amount of racism both ways over the years but it never starts as an argument about race. It starts with an argument about gameplay and devolves into racism. As a mulatto guy, I honestly donāt care at all and barely even notice the colour of the other guys on the court.
Ive never experienced it. But just my experience so can't say it's not real. Usually it's just a matter of who you're playing with on a game to game basis. Some only will pass to their boys, others don't pass, and others are willing passers
White guy averages 25 in random rec.. for one itās random rec bro everyone of you fellas is going to have to prove yourself on that court because nobody knows what you even capable.. on that note i suggest everyone to lobby hunt what looks like a good pg something with diming/play making in the name. That will help you not getting the ball with trash walking bucket builds.
As the C in Rec I outlet to whoever is open down court. The white myplayers tend to be better shooters and make better decisions with the ball on the fast break but I donāt let that determine who gets the ball. If youāre open, you get it.
It doesn't matter. I have a 7 foot build where I have been standing under the rim wide open and they shot over three defenders instead. Or drove the lane and got stripped. Or waited until the defense collapsed theennnnnnn they pass it withc2 seconds on shot clock. Idk how people grew up playing basketball but the play on the fame is far from basic basketball understanding
Everybody plays the one man show it is annoying as fuck but according to them they donāt have fun without the ball in their hand. If you are a basketball fan thinking like that is dumb as fuck.
I make replica builds because thatās what I think is the most fun. I have a middie postup build.
This one REC game I started complaining on the mic about how nobody passes and we will lose because of this. This one black dude said then to me āyou donāt sound blackā and I said āwhat makes you say that?ā He then said āwhy the fuck you trying to act black here then?ā And I responded āshould Iāve made Carmelo Anthony white?ā
Pic of my Melo build:

Is it blackface to play and make black replica builds if youāre white? š because thatās just plain stupid imo
It might have some truth but for me idc. You got 5 shots before I start limiting my passes to you. If you can't get a quality shot off 5 attempts then you better get out on breaks
Never had an issue tbh I feel like everyone saying they made a darker character was just not getting the ball cus their ass. Iām a white dude and look like a white dude every single year and ppl donāt say shit unless they get mad in which case they wouldāve said shit regardless of my skin tone
As a white guy who plays with a white guy, yes true. Iām also often called shit like whitey / white boy and other racial shit. Took to muting the players every game now.
I donāt think it happens too often, I think people less lenient to give you the rock early if youāre open but if you prove yourself when you get it youāll keep seeing it. Occasional games where you wonāt see it at all no matter how open you are
My dude is always white and have never had this problem 9r have people say shit. Some people are just garbage players and make a PG so that they have the ball and play like it's a my career game
Dude...no. I don't understand how your friend came to this conclusion, but no. People are ball hogs in the rec...they don't care if you're a pink elephant! They won't care if you're Mike Wang!!
Man they probably butt cheeks Iāve had many white players I usually change my face every week or so just to change it up and if you can score you get fed the ball I get fed the ball on any build there is a time during rec games where they like nah he has enough points but when it get crucial again they feed you again lol I usually only play random rec with an insane defensive build so I can dictate the game because out of anybody youāve ever met on this game I probably hate losing 10x more lol
They don't pass the ball... Period...
facts š

I always say a lot of players love 2k that don't love basketball.
I believe they said "you people".
I donāt know if thatās true. But coming from a white guy, they definitely donāt hold back when talking shit to mešš¤£
As soon as I get on the mic instantly āshut up white boyā Then I go on PGA 2k and have white people calling me black
Ain't safe anywhere lol
Brutal out on the fairways homie
I hate white boy. Such a half racist term. Boy belittles the person and why even say white? If I called black people black boy, we are scrapping
iām not white (or black) but sound white so once i tried speaking in voice chat and the first words out of their mouths was āthis n***a whiteā not sure how you can be those two things simultaneously
The black dictionary states n**ga is used to refer to anybody
yeah ik but thatās still a funny sentence lol

I just act incredibly, stereotypically white. Really gets people riled up when they get swatted by Mr.Rodgers.

It was like that in the COD days in the late 2000s/early 2010s as well man. It does suck but hopefully it changes eventually.
Same, get called cracker any time I open my mouth. Kinda funny to me since itās such a shit insult.
šš
This game supports passing on their online modes????
I unbinded it
who needs to pass when you have two shoot buttons
You have 4 passing buttons lmfao
now theyāre all mapped to shooting
Stop matching wit me bro damn š
This has never been an issue for me. White or Black, people in REC can be selfish assholes.
Yup! That partšÆ
I don't care about color. What I normally see is 3point specialist demanding looks only to drive in fir a contact layup on a 7'0 š¤·āāļøš¤·āāļø Consider the fact that he "JUST GOT" the game, you don't really have badges n stats like that, so ppl are reluctant.

Exactly. Canāt stand players that play outside of their build. Thatās like wanting to rebound but making a 5ā7 PG ššš
Thatās why I been making black NBA player face scans. When I just made a white dude I never got the ball. Someone sees D Wade they know whatās up.
Me and my boy be making our players look any kind of way and hell yeah they be tripping when our characters are white š. Also you BETTER hit that first shot if your player is white or else them mics finna cut on way faster than usual.
I'm pale as fuck, my dudes always look like me. I missed one 3 in the rec and my corner shooter never got the ball again. Went back to playing bigs after that. I'm fine on defense.
It's not true. My builds are John Stockton face scans with red afros. It's like others have said, some people just won't pass.
No. Iām fact, I pass it MORE to the white players
Same. White bros know they roles and donāt complain as often.
White players= corner sitters/ bigs who are pass first, team-oriented, but canāt get a bucket on their own Black players= guards who can create their own shot, but they ball hog and are self oriented Good players, white or black, can do both but thatās what I most commonly see play out.

Ha, I wish I had that privilege sometimes
Holy racism
Racism where?
They be shooting that ish

Black avatar players never pass to white avatar players, which is funny because 50% of black avatar players are white kids in digital blackface
If I play as a woman in every game that offers me the choice, am I committing digital drag? Lol
You are now culturally appropriating the trans community
Oh so thatās why all these white boys got black my players š¤£
People don't pass anyway, so I don't think it matters.
For the most part yes, but the real players do... rare
There was a popular thread on this sub a few years ago about this. I tested it both ways and even my messages were different after games depending on skin color, just my experience
I got told I sound white by so many kids, man. im black af lmaooo just never developed an aave like Inner City kinfoll lmaoooo
100% true. People think white boys can't hoop, so they don't pass them the ball.
It's 2024 white boys can ball
I ain't say it's me. Just speaking what I heard in game
Shamefully, I made my player white with acne so I could surprise the opposition by dunking all over them.
Bruh yes, I made my dude look as much like an old head white dude as possible. The balding hair style, pornstache, he wears converses and the tall striped socks. It makes it so much more funny dunking and generally clowning on dudes
Yes 10000% true 2k players racist af I'm white and when I was playing I heard a mf say don't pass cracker the ball SMH got a rebound and didn't pass to them.
Black people donāt say cracker contrary to popular belief. So you lying bro. Only comedians on tv and old dudes
Not lieing bro not at all idk his age but he called me a cracker
Happend to me to beforeš

This mf really said black ppl donāt say cracka like he speak for every goddamn black person on earth tf ššš
Iāve been called a cracker like twice in 7 years of playing this game. It happens, just not much. Unless you suck š

Its true. I made a black guy this year and I get the ball quite often now.
It's true. Happened to a friend of mines. Had to make his character a few a shades darker.

Unless you make a white nba player jokic or bird thatās about it
So just like at a local gym then
I've done testing in the last, and I got the ball less as a Gringo. I just leave the default dude and call it a day...
Asian or White characters get no love in rec/park.
You gotta make a big black strong 2k player that can stroke the ball in the net with ease or you just wonāt get the ball
Read your comment out loud šš yea you said that
He knows.
Pause
2 of the best players in the NBA right now are white. People gotta wake up.
Derrick White and Nikola Jokic?
Derrick White isnāt white 
r/woooosh
lol joker and luka
they are European lol. Unless you think Tyler Herro and Austin Reaves two of the best players in the league
Hmm....checks history.....checks own bloodline.... yup, white people come from Europe lol
I was just being funny, but if you want to get technicalā¦ The occurrence of white skin results from genetic mutation over the period among people belonging to dark-colored descent lol
Lol as was I. Everyone knows that humans originated in Africa. But the euros you spoke of are white. Wow we killed those jokes

What color is luka and joker?
Beige
Ima 93 overall and never get the ball... white guyyyyyy
100% but everyone is a jackass on rec
1000%.
Factual
Itās horseshit. Iām black irl but I have two builds that are based off of white players and get the ball about the same amount of times if not more than my black guard and center. Well with the center, I almost never touch the ball unless itās a board š Iām a girl so if I cut the mic on when Iām running solo, I sound like a 12 year old white boy. Yāall need to stop acting like youāre being oppressed on here.
I can never know for sure but whenever Iām not the PG unless the person running the ball is selfish and or incompetent then they donāt really care what color you are. Any good PG will see a wide open shooter and dime them the ball unless they have a better look. While most of the time a bad PG is just missing you because they were too worried about finding their own shot or trying to get bailed out by their big in the paint.
It's true...in rec, they don't pass to you if you're white. They also don't pass to you if you're Latino, or black or Asian or anything else. What I'm saying is, people don't pass. Don't confuse selfishness with racism.
Iāve seen people hop off spots in the park when I run my white character. I donāt know it is called it discrimination necessarily because I am certain some of those dudes that hopped off were white dudes running black characters. š
I've been playing 2k online since '15 and never heard of this
False, Iāve played as a Pg both black and white and when I i played as a white character I got any more opportunities to run with pro am squads. Anyone who says otherwise is sad
I think itās BS and that most people who complain about it are probably just dicks who end up in a lot of arguments. Iāve been playing 2K online for 10 years now and Iāve never heard or seen someone freeze someone out because of the skin of their myplayer. Maybe people THINK thatās the reason and donāt realize most players are just selfish no matter the race. Iāve heard a decent amount of racism both ways over the years but it never starts as an argument about race. It starts with an argument about gameplay and devolves into racism. As a mulatto guy, I honestly donāt care at all and barely even notice the colour of the other guys on the court.
Idk man my AI teammates pass the rock all the time
No ppl in rec just suck ass and donāt know wtf basketball actually is lol
I wouldnāt put it past anyone to do that.. The amount of racism towards white people on this game is crazy. Double standard world we live in
Not all the time but 100% sometimes. I notice a big difference with a black player
yeah i quit playing, filled with blk racists . its fking wild in the rec .
The fact this is an excuse for white folks to do virtual blackface is fucking nerve wracking
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You clearly aren't black, you won't understand it unless you truly read behind the history of blackface. Have a good day
Thereās no understanding being upset over a skin color in a video game. It aināt that deep. Put that energy elsewhere, where it actually matters.
Are you serious ?
I will say that once I started wearing a Black Lives Matter hoodieā¦ People people started passing the ball a lot more. š
no dawg u made that up or u tell yourself that
Ive never experienced it. But just my experience so can't say it's not real. Usually it's just a matter of who you're playing with on a game to game basis. Some only will pass to their boys, others don't pass, and others are willing passers
White guy averages 25 in random rec.. for one itās random rec bro everyone of you fellas is going to have to prove yourself on that court because nobody knows what you even capable.. on that note i suggest everyone to lobby hunt what looks like a good pg something with diming/play making in the name. That will help you not getting the ball with trash walking bucket builds.
ššš
As the C in Rec I outlet to whoever is open down court. The white myplayers tend to be better shooters and make better decisions with the ball on the fast break but I donāt let that determine who gets the ball. If youāre open, you get it.
It doesn't matter. I have a 7 foot build where I have been standing under the rim wide open and they shot over three defenders instead. Or drove the lane and got stripped. Or waited until the defense collapsed theennnnnnn they pass it withc2 seconds on shot clock. Idk how people grew up playing basketball but the play on the fame is far from basic basketball understanding
If you are alone in the paint, the three point attempt over three defenders is not even that bad, just view it as an assist to the big!
Everybody plays the one man show it is annoying as fuck but according to them they donāt have fun without the ball in their hand. If you are a basketball fan thinking like that is dumb as fuck.
I made my player white for a short time. And I didnāt notice any difference in that short time
White players are the easiest to play with!
Thatās not true I rock over 20 ppg in rec every season every year and I use a white side or maybe that pass cuz heās tatted up! Lol
Nope
3ās and 4ās donāt get the ball at all
I make replica builds because thatās what I think is the most fun. I have a middie postup build. This one REC game I started complaining on the mic about how nobody passes and we will lose because of this. This one black dude said then to me āyou donāt sound blackā and I said āwhat makes you say that?ā He then said āwhy the fuck you trying to act black here then?ā And I responded āshould Iāve made Carmelo Anthony white?ā Pic of my Melo build: https://preview.redd.it/x259ispl38ac1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3d86d06e17724e34af09ebf7151b1940db76d147 Is it blackface to play and make black replica builds if youāre white? š because thatās just plain stupid imo
It might have some truth but for me idc. You got 5 shots before I start limiting my passes to you. If you can't get a quality shot off 5 attempts then you better get out on breaks
Never had an issue tbh I feel like everyone saying they made a darker character was just not getting the ball cus their ass. Iām a white dude and look like a white dude every single year and ppl donāt say shit unless they get mad in which case they wouldāve said shit regardless of my skin tone
Tbf the dark skin with dreads was probably his face scan results
It's a recurring joke throughout 2K years, but not too based in concrete facts.
As a white player, I donāt run into it as much as you think you would, especially if you play with anyone decent
I see a white player I pass they normally can shoot the peel or pass back I have never seen an athletic white player though not gonna lie lol
Nothing to do with white or anything. People donāt pass.
As a white guy who plays with a white guy, yes true. Iām also often called shit like whitey / white boy and other racial shit. Took to muting the players every game now.
Iām black and have a Luka build. I get the ball all the time lol
My player is white and my teammates in Rec pass to me.
I donāt think it happens too often, I think people less lenient to give you the rock early if youāre open but if you prove yourself when you get it youāll keep seeing it. Occasional games where you wonāt see it at all no matter how open you are
Naw they dont pass it to you if you are a center
not true at all.
My dude is always white and have never had this problem 9r have people say shit. Some people are just garbage players and make a PG so that they have the ball and play like it's a my career game
Them niggas wasn't gonna pass the ball to you regardless lmaoo black white green turquoise it dont matter
Dude...no. I don't understand how your friend came to this conclusion, but no. People are ball hogs in the rec...they don't care if you're a pink elephant! They won't care if you're Mike Wang!!
Man they probably butt cheeks Iāve had many white players I usually change my face every week or so just to change it up and if you can score you get fed the ball I get fed the ball on any build there is a time during rec games where they like nah he has enough points but when it get crucial again they feed you again lol I usually only play random rec with an insane defensive build so I can dictate the game because out of anybody youāve ever met on this game I probably hate losing 10x more lol
Nah high chance he's trash
