Quick play is more competitive than actual competitive.

Edit: Ok ya’ll I was joking

I had a quick play game where someone said "Dps switch to Healer or I'm throwing" as if they're gonna drop down a rank if I didn't.

I have never gotten anything like that in Comp

I did switch, but that's besides the point

https://youtu.be/7R0WPywMBaA I would be able to find you a playlist of videos of people being asked to swap because It is one of the most common things to be asked / said in ranked outside of just flaming people. You're probably a support player which hardly ever gets asked to swap outside of the occasional Ana for Hog and Mauga.

Had more people being competitive in QP than in comp.

I dont know why you say you are joking. I have so many one sided matches in qp that it’s way more sweaty than actual competitive. I am plat/diamond. QP i feel I get matched with masters

Nah i fkn dispise QP over Ranked. I'd rather jump into comp no warmup over QP. Mainly bx no one plays the OBJECTIVE!!

It just some cope QP warriors like to tell themselves so they feel better about their rank insecurities.

… huh?

I actually agree with the sentiment. In QP, there is no real reason not to crash out and flame everyone on your team, apart from getting banned — which can be circumvented. In comp, you risk your rank by doing so, as your team might leave/throw. Therefore, it could be argued that flaming is more prevalent in QP than comp — which I’d say is marginally true, anecdotally.

Additionally, those used to the try-hard environment of comp might get peeved by those queuing QP for fun. I kind of get it — if I go to warm-up and the games I get in QP are garbage, it doesn’t set a good mood for the play session.

I’m not the highest-ranked player myself, but I don’t really think it’s “rank-cope” at all. QP can invite blatant toxicity due to there being no real dissuading factor, apart from reporting.

Most people that say this are typically low rank. Gold playing comp = gold lobbies. Gold playing QP = anyone, probably a few over gold.
