the most infuriating taunts in multiplayer

Hahahaha oh man all the Gears comments. Best thing is the quitter mentality in Gears 4. If you down a guy and start punching him the dude is almost guaranteed to leave.

Every. Single. Time.

The best is downing that ONE GUY who's been spinning his left analog stick after he kills you the whole game. Then you knock his teeth in a bunch of times and then PRAY he doesn't down you. Hahaha
 
Gotta go with "Well what is it" from DS1. Or the OG Teabag. Everybody at some point has been pissed at a teabag, especially when they were younger. But i can't deny the level of salt generated in my blood when i first started souls pvp and some one well what is it me hahah
 
Nothing infuriates me. I've seen it all and I've done it all. Teabagging in Destiny is my favourite, especially after scum shotgunning or getting a Super kill. Love receiving the hate mail. I love doing the hand to ear celebration after scoring on FIFA too...and you know I make them watch all of the replays.

The worst is when people insist on making you watch the replay from every angle. Dick move.

Truly the only thing that enrages me in online games anymore.
But goddamn do I love when the opponent scores first and does that shit before I ultimately end up winning 3-1 or some shit. You're goddamn right I make him sit through it all

Dark Souls 3 point down without contest. No idea how it hasn't been mentioned already.

Get R1 spammed by some ganking scrubs with their dark swords and then they all point down.

Instant Alt+F4

This is my pick. It's always some goddamn edgelord doing it.
 
Taunts don't me all that angry, honestly. What really gets me is when a team mate is constantly whining about everyone else's performance. Mute your mic if you feel the need to be an asshole. I play games with a competitive mindset and I get annoyed by shitty team mates, but I keep it to myself and try to be friendly.

"GG EZ" -- from players. Instant tilt opposite team.

"So many noobs. Will matchmaking ever find true balance?" -- Akali, league of legends



lol? This is almost standard in multiplayer games.

I know, but I don't really care. It's not rational. If my team gets stomped and it's objectively a bad game then a "GG" seems like a guy saying it while smirking. That's how it seems in my head in that moment of pure rage that I get with online games.
 
I find none infuriating, but simply entertaining. I find there is little reason to get upset over something so meager. If anything, its one more reason to teabag in Halo or gesture in Dark Souls. Knowing that your opponent is actually getting their panties in a bunch over some trivial character animation. And when it happens to me, I laugh it off because its funny watching the entire opposing team come over to your corpse and teabag you to death in Halo. Live a little, people.

That said, I've already named my favorites; teabagging in Halo and the smug shrug of Dark Souls (that is disappointingly not in Dark Souls 3):

(Look at that rag doll reaction, that's the best part about Halo!)

I've gotten quite a few angry messages on XBL when I play D.Va on Overwatch and do the voice line "lol, hehe!" after killing people with my ult. Their anger sustains me.
 
When I mess around with Junkrat or Hanzo in Overwatch and get an unintended kill when spamming I try and put a "Well played" or "Oops" spray up. Probably gets someone pissed off.

Dat salt, doe. That's why I always taunt, people get so tilted over something so funny.

I use gg 2 ez just cause I know it pisses people off. Really cant believe Blizzard outright blocked it. Some people need to get a grip on their anger if it truly was effecting them that much.

Why would Blizzard block something so innocuous?
 
I made someone I knew irl hate me over the course of 1 game of Rocket League. I kept spamming the chat messages like 'take the shot!' thinking it was a harmless bit we could both laugh at, but it was not received well.

Not sure how much of this big, wide world you've experienced, but I think all of us can agree that 98% of the things that make someone angry or rage aren't really something to get angry about if you look at it removed from the situation. We all know this which is why it's a little silly to say "omg how can you get so mad at a game?!?!?"

Anyway, tea bagging never bothered me bc its just silly. But the laughing face in Clash Royale used to drive me crazy.
 
Thor's taunt in MVC3 actually builds meter, which is kind of ridiculous.

However, its Thor, so if you actually let your opponent have a chance to use it, then you deserve it.
 
UC4 taunts are amazing.

Why are so many people salty about taunts tho? I find them hilarious. I have never been angry because of a taunt.
 
there's one fifa where you do a rowing machine celebration
after scoring a winner at 4-3 I ran the length of the pitch and the keeper got involved with it too lol.

glad I play pes more now where you can skip all that shit if one person press it, that aspect of the game makes monsters out of people
 
I loved the Halo 3 teabags, especially how magnetic your crotch appeared to be.

i've been teabagging recently in Overwatch to see reactions. Most people ignore it, but once in awhile I'll get someone who gets super upset

i am toxic :<
