Good show Blizzard. More of this, please.

 

[Stabby McSter]

i only say ez when i'm getting rekt

 

[Uiki]

I think people who win a game and decide bring unnecessary toxicity for no reason other than to piss others off are the "kids."

Not sure.
If someone is uncapable of not caring about a random kid writing "gg ez" on the internet........ well........
It's a competitive enviroment, it's a random dude writing stuff in a text chat.. get over it.

edit: and i'm not defending idiots that use to write "ez" in chat. Because they are idiots.

 

[Acerac]

This needs to make it to the main game. Amazing idea.

 

[Randdalf]

I've always enjoyed facetiously writing "gg ez" when winning a particularly difficult game of Dota 2.

 

[finalflame]

The people saying this are dickheads.

The people getting butthurt because someone said this are also stupid.

Neat move by Blizzard though, I like it.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Need to get rid of the "thanks" quick chat option on console now. That's the go-to sarcastic spam now.

 

[Broritos]

It's funny because it shows that even Blizzard gets upset when people say gg ez.

gg blizzard

 

[Stone Ocean]

Is there a way to disable chat completely?

Yes you can. Enter the game, enter a match, go into Social options and turn everything off.

Need to do it every time you boot the game though

 

[brianjones]

Rocket league exposed me to gg ez

So glad console overwatch has no text

 

[Strangelove77]

What does gg ez mean?

 

[finalflame]

Is there a way to disable chat completely?

Don't do this if you play competitive.

What does gg ez mean?

"good game, easily won". "gg" is usually used to show good sportsmanship after a match (good game!), adding the "ez" makes it mockery.

 

[Chao]

You know what would be cool?
Knowing what "gg ez" means.

 

[PAULINK]

i'll just switch to "gg easiest game of my life"

Hahahaha i fucking love Blizzard.

 

[Onemic]

What does gg ez mean?

good game, easy

Pretty much theyre saying you didnt pose a challenge to them.

 

[frontovik]

Is this ez mode?

 

[Regiruler]

I want this just so I can have an instant win quote to post in chat

 

[EatinOlives]

Need to get rid of the "thanks" quick chat option on console now. That's the go-to sarcastic spam now.

Wut. That's my most used quick chat option and I never use it sarcastically.

EDIT: Ah, on console. I'm on PC and I don't think I've ever seen it used sarcastically.

 

[Phamit]

I don't what it means, but hate "gg ez" "ez", in most cases the annoying people use it

 

[Visualante2]

That censorship.

 

[Strangelove77]

Don't do this if you play competitive.

Ahh. So dickish.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

i had no idea my tweet about this would make the rounds so please add the credit to overpwn, where i took the screenshot! http://www.overpwn.com/news/216-overwatch-datamined-route-66-spray-for-competitive

 

[Savitar]

That censorship.

It's trolling the trolls and an attempt to curb some of the toxic culture that exist and it's way past time.

 

[Sylverstone14]

I can dig this.

 

[Fersis]

lol, I found "gg ez" to be pretty funny. Yeah, bragging is obnoxious but it's so simple and just goofy that I'm genuinely surprised anyone takes it seriously. I don't play multiplayer games though, so I dunno.

Actually, its been banned on LoL LINK

 

[Onemic]

The great thing about "gg ez" is that you can use it even when the match wasnt 'easy' The game can go down to OT and you'll see it used just as much as if you were wiped in 2 minutes.. It actually doesnt matter if your opponent presented a challenge or not!

 

[truestatic]

What does gg ez mean?

'Good game easy,' but really closer to 'you are terrible at this.'

 

[Supermanisdead]

add it to dota too. gg ez mid = i fed a lot and my team carried me

 

[Shaanyboi]

amazing

 

[hamchan]

That's awesome. Hate the people who say "ez".

 

[frontovik]

Why do you have to be so carebear Blizzard? So what if players want to be honest and state that the game was ez? They're calling it out as they see it. At least they added Gg as well.

/s

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Damn "ez" alone works.

FIX THAT BLIZZARD!

 

[aeolist]

it only really bothers me when it's someone on my team and i know that i carried them hard

also it's an easy way to know who you should be blocking

 

[zerokoolpsx]

That's hilarious haha.

 

[KarmaCow]

I have never heard gg ez used appropriately in a game of Overwatch. It's always used in close games and when I get stomped, people are more creative.

 

[SocksAndShoes]

This is amazing.

 

[Einchy]

Awesome, anyone who says gg ez are the biggest assholes.

 

[LiK]

What does gg ez mean?

i know you're joking.

 

[Blitzhex]

Roadhog says "EZ" if you get a lot of medals with him at the card screen. I'm constantly amazed at the butthurt over ezs.

 

[Eolz]

That's fantastic! More games should definitely do stuff like this

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

That's amazing. Love it.

 

[Shingro]

Anyone who competes against a team, and then specifically make effort to say "you weren't a challenge" deserves any one of these switches.

Doubly funny if they complain about getting censored or tricked. How fragile they suddenly are when they're getting trolled huh?

 

[truestatic]

Roadhog says "EZ" if you get a lot of medals with him at the card screen. I'm constantly amazed at the butthurt over ezs.

Characters being rude to each other is different than players being rude to each other. Especially when the first is automatic.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

People type this shit just to piss other people off, there is no other reason for that.

 

[AaronMT86]

Isn't this easily circumvented? g g e z ?

 

[peakish]

They should only keep the ones who rewrite it to a gg equivalent because that's hilarious.

Wishing you all the best!

 

[oti]

Love it.

 

[Baleoce]

Brilliant. Need to add more phrases / variations to the list. Love the idea though.
